Parents, teachers charged on children education

An education consultant, Mrs. Kenny Omojola has urged stakeholders in the sector, especially parents and teachers to start teaching children how to handle the future of the country. She said this during the sixth graduation and awards ceremony of Amville School, Lagos.
According to her, parents should start to teach their children on how to ask questions when told to do something and they are in doubt.
“it is not a matter of been rude or challenging the authority or their parents but it will help them to challenge what is going on in the society and begin to think how they can improve the current condition of the country,” she said. She also said there is need to make the children to be aware of the happenings in the country.

“Because if we don’t start now to train our children in the proper way they should go, their tomorrow might be worse than our today,” she said. Earlier in her speech, the Executive Director of the school, Mrs. Mosun Owo-Odunsi said the school had an amazing and accomplished year by participating in several inter-school competitions like debate, science, chess and Arts and they performed excellently. She thanked parents for their determination and perseverance for their children to be able to make it through another academic year.
To the graduating students, she urged them never to give up. “If you come across challenges, don’t be discouraged, if you still don’t understand, talk to your teachers, parents and friends because it is by doing this you will be able to learn and perform excellently.”
“To all other students receiving awards for excellent achievement and effort, I heartily congratulate you and urge you not to rest on your oars. I commend your zeal and zest to win and excel,” she said.
The school lead monitor and best student in grade six, Sharon Adewunmi in her remark, thanked the school, especially the teachers for giving them the right education. Prizes were given to outstanding students at the ceremony.
