Saturday saw Edwin and I drive to Kyampisi to undertake a session of Professional Development with about 20 local Kyampisi teachers from 5 of the local schools.
The session commenced with prayer and a devotion at 10am and concluded with prayer at 4pm. I used the same material that I had previously used at Bbira but I was able to expand on it and give more time for discussion and clarification.
The teachers were extremely grateful for the material as it was highly practical. I was also pleased with their responses.
The teachers are keen for a follow-up session and some ongoing mentoring and coaching - I'm not sure how it will work, but I'm sure we'll manage something!
Three of the Head Teachers present suggested they form a Christian Teachers' Association of Kyampisi. I suggested they investigate into whether there is already a Christian Teachers' Association of Uganda. We'll need to watch this space to see what develops here.
I also suggested the next meeting of the group be held at one of the other schools in the cluster.
