Deputy Principal in charge of Curriculum
PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE As children grow, professionals advise us to emphasize three important domains, these are: Affective – This deals with spiritual emotions. The affective domain includes factors such as student motivation attitudes, perceptions and values. Cognitive – The domain is to do with mental process including how people think, perceive, remember and learn. Psycho-social stage – This is all about developing muscles. Learning is developed by physical skills such as movement, coordination and manipulation. In order for the mentioned domains to be realized, the triangular working relationship has to be focused on. The parents, the staff and children have to work together to achieve the required goals. Furthermore, in building a wholesome all around child, compassion, love integrity, cleanliness and above all discipline. We believe that discipline is the key to success. We train our children to observe all of them. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. This cuts across. We respect all, religions and children enjoy freedom of worship. In the addition to the above, these days some parents altered the roles of parenting forgetting that children are a photocopy of their own character. Parents are like rivers from which children fetch values they need living. Homes and schools are important places where children should get quality growth and development plus learning. Teachers should handle children as individuals for they are different from one another. Guard your education for it is your future. “We struggle for the future”
