Fort Portal and Kyebambe Secondary School


Today was a very good day. We slept in to rest after last week’s exhausting pace. The day was fairly strait forward after that. We first went in to see Fort Portal. A fairly large city, Capital of the Tooro Kingdom and other assorted uses. The main street is lined with shops selling CDS, clothes, and crafts. I planned on ordering a shirt and bought some fabric for that purpose. After about an hour or so, we went to Kyebambe Girls Secondary School. There we were greeted by the appreciative scholars, who we interacted with and then ate a lunch together. It is pleasing to see how much the students valued their education. It really made me re-evaluate how appreciative I am for free secondary school. We then went back to the field station for the rest of the day I am glad for the change from scheduled activities to more unexpected experiences
