Friends from Africa

It's been a while, hasn't it?

Last week we had Godfrey and Florence staying with us. Godfrey is the Head of a fantastically impressive school in Jinja, Uganda's second city (see links). He knows more people in the British educational world than I do, by a country mile. He spoke on a panel at the Head Masters Conference about international links, having fostered many with schools in this country. Florence teaches primary school children in Jinja.

They are lovely people, and I'm proud now to be able to call them my friends. And I am absolutely set on joining one of the school trips over to visit them in the hometown they talk so fascinatingly about.
