Next phase

I will be starting my second stage of my course. In this stage, my practicum site will be a secondary school. Yesterday, I went down to meet the vice-principal. Heart-wrenching real stories were shared.

- a girl became an orphan while in school. Mother died when she was very young, father died of a massive heart attack one morning while she was in school
- a boy filled with guilt because his aunty blamed him for making her a spinster as she had to look after him while both parents were in lock-up
- a boy came to school with a fractured arm because mum, threw a chair at him…so many more.

How can our lives revolve just “what car should I drive?” “what house should live in?” “what game should I have?” "what should I eat, where should I go" …

Reaching out to these children will put my life at risk, so God, help me, please

Three essays, one research work, one examination. Gosh....if I have been disciplined, I need to be three times more disciplined!
