Canada Etuyita

Enkeera ku makya nasaba Anne agule “Times Educational Supplement.” Empapula eno yafulumanga buli Lwakubiri, era yalagangamu emikisa gyonna egy’okusomesa mu Bungereza yonna, awamu n’ebiwandiiko ebikwata ku nkola y’okusomesa. Nnali ndowoozezza nti kyandibadde kirungi okufuna endabika enzijjuvu ey’enkulaakulana mu by’enjigiriza, ndyoke ndabe embeera ey’omu kitundu obulungi. Akawungeezi ako, bwe nnabikkula ku lupapula olusooka okusoma, ne neewuunya nnyo okulaba nti, “Waliwo omusomesa wa Physics gwe beetaaga mu ssomero mu Toronto, Canada.”

Kino kye kyali ekirango eky’olusooka nga bwe kityo mu myaka mingi ekyafunibwa mu magaziini yonna ey’e Bungereza, kubanga amasomero ag’omu Canada gaali gakyaziyiziddwa okulanga ebweru w’eggwanga lyabwe; naye ate nannyini ssomero lino ery’obwannannyini yalina ofiisi mu New York, era nga bwe nnavumbula oluvannyuma, tewaali Mucanada n’omu eyandikoze ku musaala omutono ogwali guweebwa!

Ekiwandiiko ekyo kyeyongera okugamba nti omutandisi, Mr. Giles, yali wa kubeera mu London wiiki eyaddirira, okwogera n’abasomesa abaali baagala okufuna omulimu guno, n’abalala abaali balangiddwa mu ngeri y’emu. Kino kyampalira nnyo kubanga ekibiina National Association of Schoolmasters — ekibiina kyange eky’abakozi — kyali kiyise okukola omukolo gw’okulekera emirimu olw’olunaku lumu, omulundi ogusooka, ku Lwakusatu olwaddirira. Bwe kityo, oluvannyuma lw’okwogeraganya okw’akaseera katono, ne mpeebwa omulimu okuba Omukulu w’Ekitongole kya Physics ku Toronto French School, Canada.

Omusaala gwali gwa kuba $11,000 ng’ogasseeko n’ensimbi ez’okusenguka. Guno gwali gusingako ku musaala gwange ogw’ekiseera ekyo waakiri $2,000, nga gwe musaala omusinga obunene ogwasasulwanga mu Wales. Naye tekyandituuse okutuusa lwe twatuuka mu Canada lwe nnavumbula nga bwe kyali ekitasoboka okukuza abaana basatu n’omusaala ogwo mu Toronto!

Ku lukuŋŋaana n’a Mr. Giles saasalawo kintu kyonna, wabula nadda e Wales n’endagaano okugiteekako omukono. Bwe nnatuuka eka, nasanga tulina abagenyi, Martin ne Sharon Loyley. Baali mikwano gyaffe egy’abaminsani be twamanya mu Hong Kong, era baali mu Wales ku kiwummulo, nga bakyalidde ab’eŋŋanda za Martin mu Bungereza. Baasanyuka nnyo okuwulira ku kwogeraganya kwange, era baatugumya n’obunyiikivu kubanga Sharon yali ava mu Toronto era nga amanyi ssomero eryo obulungi nnyo!

Yagamba nti, “Kibagwanira okubeera ne maama wange. Abeera yekka era anaasanyuka nnyo okubalaba mwenna nga muli awamu naye.”

Katonda yali amaze okututegekera ekkubo mu maaso gaffe.

Oluvannyuma lw’okwogeraganya n’okusaba, nze ne Anne ne tusalawo okukkiriza omulimu ogwaweebwa, era endagaano n’eteekebwako omukono nga bwe kisaanidde n’eddizibwa Mr. Giles.

Enkeera nagenda okulaba omukulu w’essomero nga nkutte ebbaluwa yange ey’okuwummula ku mulimu. Bwe nnayingira mu ofiisi ye, Mr. Price yannamusa n’ekisa n’‘amawulire amalungi’ nti Akakiiko k’Abakulembeze kaali kakyusizza endowooza yaako era nga nnina eddembe okugenda ku musomo ogw’omu yunivasite.

Mazima ddala, amawulire gange gaamwewuunyisa nnyo, naye n’akkiriza n’ekisa ensonga zange. Twalina emyezi esatu okwetegeka; lipoota z’ebyobulamu ne viza ne bifunibwa, ennyumba n’etundibwa, omulimu gw’abavubuka ne guweebwa omulala, era ebigambo bingi ‘eby’okusiibula’ ne byogerwa, kyokka twali tetugenda bwomu. Omukwano gwange omulungi yali yeeyagalidde okusalawo kwange era n’akozesa omukisa okukyalira Mr. Giles yennyini. Keith yali alondeddwa okuba Omukulu w’Ekitongole kya Mathematics mu ssomero lye limu nga nange. Bwe kityo, mu Agusiti 1975 twapakira ebintu byaffe byonna mu kontena ey’okusaabaza ku nnyanja eya fuuti 24 obuwanvu, ne tuwuluka okugenda e Toronto, Canada — ensi ey’ekisuubizo era ey’ebifo ebigazi ebyeggule.
