A warm welcome at Takitumu school

Well, today was our first day of school and, of course, we forgot our lunches with no mom to bring them! Upon arrival at Takitumu school, we were warmly greeted by Engia, the principal. Our day was spent reading with the children of the 4th and 5th grade class in groups of two. It was impressive how hard they worked at their reading and how much they supported each other’s efforts. After the school day was over we went to the homework centre at St. Paul’s to tutor after-school studies. We each worked one on one with the children on reading and math skills.

Message of the Day: “Strive not to be a success rather to be of value.”
