After having a restful nights sleep at Papaya Holiday home, the team woke up fully refreshed after a long journey. We then travelled by bus to the BEA Creativity Centre where we were greeted by Harriet, the lovely Ugandan women who runs the centre and the school our project involves.
After having a tour around the amazing garden and playrooms at BEA, we all had the chance to interact and play alongside the children at the centre who truly welcomed us with open arms.
Following a delicious lunch prepared by the staff at the centre, we travelled to our project site and home for the next two weeks, where we were welcomed warmly by clapping and cheering from some of the children who go to two bridges school.
Our accommodation is definitely not luxury but we are all settled in and comfortable, although we're still adjusting to the pit latrines!
Overall an amazing and special first day in Uganda!
