After four days in Ugweri, our group moved to Embu town. We took a group photo with a number of the host families last evening and also took some photos this morning with the host families for our students and the person who cooked for us while we were in Ugweri.
When we arrived in Embu town around 9 am, we checked into the Izaak Walton Inn and had some time in the morning to work on course readings and assignments.
We ate lunch at the Mountain Breeze Hotel and enjoyed the sunshine.
After lunch, we went to the University of Embu where Dr. Ciriaka Gitonga, Dean of the School of Education, and Dr. Peter Rugano, Lecturer in Science Education, engaged us in critical thought and discussion about education in Kenya.
We close today’s blog with a photo we saw on a high school campus that reflects the growing awareness in Kenya of difference and the need to support all learners.
