Some parting shots of the team on our last day of the onset program. We have had so many amazing experiences and will miss the friendships we have created! @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

We went back to the school today that we had previously visited as one of our team members’ students had fundraised to purchase them supplies. What a treat! @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

On our way to Jinja we stopped briefly to view a tropical rainforest. It was difficult to get pictures that convey the sheer size and thickness of the jungle. @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

Yesterday we had the great pleasure of visiting the source of the Nile River at Jinja. Very neat to see! @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

[CTFUganda2019 @CUganda2019]

Hail in Uganda! We were 30 minutes into our boat tour of the Nile when a rainstorm hit. We got off the boat to huddle under a small hut and this is what happened next...it was a great adventure! @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

Some of the participants bring their children to the college. The older children take care of the younger for a majority of the day. @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

Thursday night was Canada/Uganda night. We held an Amazing Race event to showcase Canada and were then treated to a Ugandan song and dance show. @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

[CTFUganda2019 @CUganda2019]

At the end of every day we have a debriefing session. A valuable time to discuss and improve our practices while celebrating our successes. @albertateachers #CTFPO #projectoverseas #united4ed #UNATU @ETFOeducators @NWTTA

[CTFUganda2019 @CUganda2019]

We have seen firsthand the ingenuity of Uganda teachers! Here are some balls made by students.
