The Senegal

 

The Republic of Senegal is a country in West Africa. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Mauritania to the north and east, Mali and Guinea and Guinea-Bissau to the south. The Gambia forms a quasi-enclave in Senegal, penetrating more than 300 km inland. The Cape Verde Islands are located 560 km from the Senegalese coast.

 

The country owes its name to the river which borders it to the east and north and which has its source in the Fouta Djallon in Guinea.

 

The climate is north of the desert type and south of the tropical type with:

 

  • a dry season from November to June with continental trade winds, with temperatures between 22 ° C and 30 ° C, with significant variations between the coast and the interior.

 

  • a rainy season from June to October with a peak in August, September is variable according to the latitude (less precipitation in the north compared to the south). It is the monsoon period. One can not speak of true rainy season in Casamance, the only region where there are also forests worthy of the name.

Primary school & middle school

 

The Diaglé Primary School was built in 1961 as a religious dispensary and was transformed into the Diaglé Primary School to accommodate classes from CP to CM2 for children in the village and the surrounding area.

 

The ALEDD association provides support to all students in the school complex so that everyone has all the school supplies they need to study well. The aid is supplemented by the purchase of rice for the primary school canteen - around 8-10 tonnes per year - so that each primary pupil is at least one meal a day to study well.

 

DIAGLE 337 students including 148 girls & 179 boys

M'BOUMA 180 students including 71 girls & 72 boys

TAGDIAM 144 students including 72 girls & 84 boys

 

 

As for the Rural College , it is much more recent since it opened in January 2018 following the combined efforts of the Primary teaching staff, led by its charismatic director Mr Ngor DIOP, but also of all the villagers and the association. 6 classes are already open on the 10 envisaged.
