A post-secondary update from Joy

In the post-secondary department, we have a total of 124 students enrolled in different institutions. Out of this number 33 are waiting to join University or college for higher education learning. They will be interviewing with the Scholarship Committee this week where they are all required to present their post-secondary education plan.

All our students have been contacted and they are well and safe together with their families. We are happy to report that 70% of the students have managed to study online while the rest continue to carry on with assignments that are sent through the school portal or WhatsApp. For students who do not have access to the internet and laptops, we have managed to schedule them at the computer lab. There they can access the internet and continue with online studies while observing  safety guidelines.

In addition to school work, students have continued to rediscover themselves and are engaged in new hobbies like online writing, cycling, beadwork activities. Others assist their siblings with homework and help with house chores duties.
