Set good examples for children, parents told

An education consultant and psychologist, Mrs. Ena Agodo, has called on parents to set good examples for their wards.

She gave the advice while addressing the graduation of Darforte International Schools, Ahmadiya Bus stop, Lagos.

Her words: “Charity begins at home. No matter what the school puts in place for the children if the home environment is not conducive to learning, the children cannot excel. So, I want to tell parents to make the home peaceful, neat and caring. Let the children learn how to use their time. Parents should teach them morals such as hard work, integrity, discipline, patience and friendship. Let all parents set good examples for the children to follow.”

Mrs. Agodo advised grandaunds on how to choose a career. “The best way to decide the profession to pursue is to follow your natural abilities and interest. Do not base your decision to on money,” she said.

She emphasised the importance of deep thinking in the journey of life. She advised graduating students to embrace vigorous thinking as a way of life.

The school proprietress, Princess Titilade Ijiwole, disclosed that the school has installed Close-Circuit Television (CCTV) in response to security challenges in the country. According to her, the new device would enable the school management monitor movement around the school in order to take appropriate action in the event of security breach.

She assured parents that the school will continue to maintain high standard in every aspect of education of the children.
