Peter  Tumuhekyi,  Link Coordinator

From 14th to 24th June. 4 teachers from Kigezi High School Uganda visited the Warriner School to cement the joint collaborative work on Joint curricullum projects. They were Peter Tumuhekyi, Chris Rubaganjana,Wence Munyamagana and Twino Buhungiro the Head Teacher.

A lot of work was covered,experiences shared,more ideas injected in the curriculum projects’ implementation and a lot of pictures were taken as work on the ground was concretised.

Below are some of the highlights and excerpts.

The trip to Warriner School started on 13th June 2010 at 9:15 am and arrived in Heathrow at 8 hours and 51 minutes.  We were welcomed at the airport by Selina (a teacher of Warriner School). We have shared ideas and experiences in various fields as far as curriculum development is concerned. What wonderful people we found at Warinner!! The well equiped institution and practical work by the students was fascinating.  It has been wonderful experience to visit UK and Warriner  School in particular.  The partnership has to continue.

This is Wence Munyamagana from Kigezi High School on a visit to The Warriner School, UK.  It was a wonderful journey to UK and the visit is so interesting.  So many things are going on.  I have visited the school.  The students are hospitable as well as the administration and the teachers.  I spent a very good time with Steve and family and they hosted me at their home for two days.  I feel so happy now to be in Oxfordshire with its beauty that is so amazing.

What fascinated me were cattle farms, grain fields and horse farms. After the fantastic school farm, the host schools “state dinners” were testimony to their hospitality. I had a rare opportunity to see the Oxford University and the Oxfam GB Head Office.

 I have been challenged to do more work with my students on the food security project and on Climate Change effects on humanity.
