TODAY IS OUR DAY - VACATION IS HERE AGAIN
Today is our day
After several days of being in school.
5 days during the weekdays and adding Saturday for extra classes,
The academic calendar has finally drawn to a halt.
We have toiled and battled with the numerous teaching and learning activities,
A host of subjects to memorise in and during the examination days, crack and squeeze our brains to juice it out.
For some this is their hell.....
It may be an easy go for some, but others would rather climb mountain Everest than to answer that one question.
Lo and behold
Today is our day
We see children run about happy and beaming with smiles forgetting what awaits in the report card.
We have all been through this sensation, the feel to not think of anything else, except the fun part.
We tend to keep soo much fun we may ever forget to grab the report card.
Our day at SayAdsam Educational Complex is soo fun.
Classrooms are decorated by students using inexpensive materials… paper, chewing gum and a sharp blade is all one needs, sometimes they show off their colouring and paintings skills.
Each child comes along with a special food prepared by their mother.
Mostly fried rice or jollof rice with a hefty fish, meat or chicken.
This is a means of rewarding the kid, usually for passing or excelling in the exam…..
But no one knows the outcome of the exams yet
Oh, gone are the days when one goes to school with 'konkontey' and groundnut soup or banku and okro stew….
It all now rice and this, rice and that, something rice .
Whiles the kids are happy the teachers are also beaming with smiles, no more marking of classwork and assignments, no more shouting and no more waking up early to prepare for school.
Our day is a sacred day for each kid and during a festive season like this, it is even more special…
Some kids try to show off their newly bought dresses whiles other keep their in stock for the xmas Sunday.
No teaching goes on such days and its all fun to see lots of people come to school, even the truant does come around.
Most at times, each child has a parcel waiting for them at home after the "our day".
The type of reward is usually directly related to the grades u obtained.......LOL
This is @anaman from #teamghana
Tomorrow will be my day. I have my last examination paper to write today. And am already anticipating my journey back home. Our day always reminded me of how far i had come when i was young. Its a happy moment irrespective of the difficult exams prior to it
Yeah, it takes away all our worries....
All we tgink about is the joy and tge fact that there would be ni school tomorrow
Vacation times are so sweet.
Mostly long vacations..
Throwbacks on my primary school days...
Thanks for taking us down memory lane
Yeah, those are usually some of my happiest days...... Probably nxt to christmas
Such days are special to children because they have the opportunity to demand their needs. @anaman
We have all been through that..... It pays off sometime, it makes us learn and go the extra mile.
I remember when ibgot a bike for being within the first 3 in my class.
It was a joyous moment
