Omdurman technical school
Established 1902 in Omdurman. The building still retains its original structure. Few changes have been done so far. Like the Amiriya school it needs as well rehabilitation which according to the present headmaster is going to happen soon through fund from Islamic Development Bank. We hope, if this is true, to be supervised by experts from National Corporation for Antiquities and Museums.
Al Amiriya Secondary School
It was established 1902, the same date of Gordon Memorial College and according to my informants it was used to for some time for teaching Gordon college students as few buildings finished at the time of its inauguration. The school graduates of 1972 created a body (association or organization) to rehabilitate the school after being abandoned for long time and was endangered by being offered for sale to a private investor. I have been invited by this group to visit the school which I did in one Saturday last January 2017. It was a great to learn that there is such a beautiful building in Omdurman which I have never heard about. My pleasure increased after seeing and feeling the enthusiasm of its graduates to restore it after winning their first battle against selling it. This is part of our concern in SNG together with Khalid Hamid as well as being the concern of our department of archaeology to pay attention to our recent history buildings which are undergoing rapid deterioration, misuse and dismantling.
