Heads up from the Head

Teachers in the background are getting involed in Making Art, Making Me

Yesterday at Mgungani the Head Master, Mr Msofe joined our third workshop at Mgungani Primary School.

We had a jam packed afternoon with some lost ground to make up from last week, despite this the head teacher loved the workshop and I was really pleased to see that he even interjected at the end whilst we were setting some ‘homework’. We were asking them all to draw a picture of something that has happened in their life, good, bad, old or new, it doesn’t matter as long as it has had an impact on their identity and is important to them! As we were discussing this Mwalimu Msofe joined in and reminded the children that they are all individuals and therefore should think about unique stories. This was really fantastic to see the teacher getting involved with the project and put a massive smile on our sustainable face!  We spoke with him afterwards and he reassured us that we are welcome anytime and can see that the children are learning new skills. He especially liked the presentations, our favourite part too, where each child presents what they have done to the group. He says that this is building their confidence and they can use these skills to express themselves in the classroom and in their exams.

Karibu sana Mwalimu Msofe
