"Not the Board again Haryet, I am tired of looking at the white board." Said one of the youth.
OK.... Puzzled at her statement and facial expression, I asked for the board to be hidden.
"I go to school so they can say, she went to school." said another youth
"school is boring Haryet." said another youth.
I walk into my office and there they are seated. I asked them what they were doing here and why they are not at school.
"We are home haryet and we are tired of school " they said.
What is going on with" formal school"? What exactly is happening there.
Has it lost its value or have the youth been suppressed.?
I think it is time to use the Board of Nature to teach.
After that discussion, it led me to ask what they really wanted. Many of them wanted to watch movies.
Yes movies.
I was surprised too, see acting is not taught in school neither is it celebrated at all yet we all love movies.
Right now "Queen of katwe" is being watched by almost everyone apart from me, when I asked them what movie they wanted to watch, they mentioned it.
Isn't it time to teach youth more than just the white board does?
What is the difference between Talent, gifts, passion and profession?
