My experience in Rwanda has enriched my teaching and opened an opportunity to build up an international engagement and partnership across and beyond all subject areas and boundaries. Children and young people can make connections between different areas of learning to develop knowledge and skills are required for life, learning and work.
Pupils of an enhanced provision in secondary school organise a presentation about Rwanda on food, tradition, weather, vegetation and culture.
Everyday meals often consist of bean, vegetable or meat stews. Generally, Rwanda’s food is not particularly hot or spicy. So, we had a lovely tropical lunch with papaya, pineapple, passion fruit, banana, mango, beans, cassava and hot tea (chai or icyayi) which is brewed sweet and milky.
In Rwanda, this is a traditional tale about Ngunda, a glutton and giant. It is because of him that Rwanda’s rivers and lakes were formed. The children in the Pr 6/7 Enhanced Provision Unit at Banff Primary School enjoyed hearing the story and making their animation.
