The teachers at the Confucius Institute at Makerere University had an experience sharing session conducted by Ms. Hildah Ayebare from Ndejje SS and Mr. Sylus Oluka from Teso College Aloet. The two Ugandan teachers were sponsored and trained by the Confucius Institute at Makerere University.

It was a fulfilling session as they shared their perspective of teaching Chinese in Ugandan secondary schools.

Winners of this year's Chinese Bridge Competition for secondary school and university students pose for a group photo with the Chinese Director of the Confucius Institute. She handed over gifts to them and encouraged them to continue learning the Chinese language.

Today is winter solstice, which is an important day widely celebrated in China. On this day, people in the northern part of China eat dumplings, While people in southern China eat tangyuan, to symbolize the reunion of family.

6 years ago, the Confucius Institute was birthed at Makerere University.

It is sad that we cannot have our annual celebrations because of Covid 19. Nevertheless, we still celebrate every achievement attained. Special thanks to the Chinese Embassy in Uganda, Makerere University, Ministry of Education, NCDC and all partners who have supported us to reach this far.
