OCTOBER THE ROSARY MONTH : « Here at Our Lady of Assumption Boarding and Day Schools. The Month of October is Special for us as an Institution. Every Afternoon from 3.00 -4.00 pm the children gather after their Afternoon Classes to recite the Holy Rosary together. Each Class from P.1 to S.3 animates the Holy Rosary on a specific day. We began that Devotion of reciting the Holy Rosary from 1st October and ended on 31st. 
Our children have started appreciating and loving that Devotion of Our Mother Mary of the Rosary.After every day Rosary a Catechesis of Our Mother Mary is given about the Life and of Our Mother to the Children by the Brother in charge. We hope and pray that these children would be able to continue that Devotion of reciting the Rosary after School in their families.
This year has been very special, the Holy Rosary ended on a Friday the next Saturday was All Saints Day followed by the celebration of All Souls day on Sunday and the Children wrote down the Names of all their departed Relatives and friends and put them on the Altar during Holy Mass! May their Souls rest in Eternal Peace! (Bro Eugene Mwesigye – Riimenze)
An encouragement to pray to Mary with Young People and Children … Jean-Marie de la Mennais strongly encouraged it!!
- Father de la Mennais’s devotion to the Virgin Mary

“The Tenderest Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary was recommended to the Brothers… May they strive, by imitating her Virtues, to draw down the Blessings of her Divine Son upon themselves and upon the children entrusted to their care.” “Always carry the Rosary with you, for it is the livery of Mary’s Servants and the Mark of her Children.” These are Exhortations from Father de la Mennais He always repeated it. He himself set an example of that “Tender” Devotion: every day he recited his Rosary: “Your Venerable Father gave us a Beautiful Example of his Devotion to the Blessed Virgin. Since his First Communion, he had not missed a single day of reciting his Rosary, despite his Many Responsibilities.” (A. Garcia, Chaplain in Ploërmel). “He celebrated with Special Devotion the Feasts of the Virgin, which he prepared by Fasting; the last Office he recited in its Entirety was the Office of the Immaculate Conception.” (Bro. Friot, p. 227)
