Exciting School Beginning

Exciting School Beginning

Today we began the 2011 school year at our School of Hope.  Susan Lukaart who has led our Education Leadership Team is here and today and tomorrow are for teacher professional development and training.  It was an exciting time.  Our 3 teachers are so intelligent, asking questions about how to best teach and apply the principles of our school.  We were able to really dialogue about our view of children and the potential and creativity they have.  As Zandile said, the children are all blessings from God.

Tomorrow we will continue our planning and preparation.  Then the next 3 days the children will come for the morning to give us more time for planning as well as time to meet with Susan whose passion for children and learning, as well as experience is invaluable for all of us. 

The children can't wait to get back to school.  What a blessing that is!!
