CAREERS DAY CELEBRATIONS AT SCHOOL




On 26th September 2013 one of the project schools, Kyebambe Girls School celebrated careers day in style.
The day focused on senior five and senior ones together with their respective guardians/parents. From the attendance side, the turn up was very good and the room was full to capacity.
The message was very clear and directed towards career. What do the students(Girls) want to become and what is the role of their parents.

It was very clear that parents play a big role in the shaping of children and becoming what they want to become. The headteacher urged parents to help and support their children to learn certain things from home so that the school can contribute to the parent’s effort.

The deputy headteacher in charge of academics. Mr Balinda emphasized that there is a lot of moral decadence and the parents need to intervene otherwise the children will end nowhere because it will deter the academic pursuits.

CfSU  informed parents and students what is being done in the school regarding ICT and the possible careers in relation to ICT, how ICT crosscuts other subjects and the need for creativity. 
Further more, CfSU mentioned the fact that teachers need to use ICT in this era to make learning exciting while giving an example of the English language lessons where they occasionally use ICT to teach.
 in his presentation, Joel stated the fact that internet is very important for learners in this era but also emphasised that it can be bad if used for the wrong purpose.

Parents responded positively to CfSU’s presentation and complemented that ICT is the way to go for their children. The school responded by mentioning that next term they will focus on skilling children and ICT is one of the components that need to be emphasized.

On giving a vote of thanks, Mr. Nyamigisa talking on behalf of the teachers mentined the fact that some girls have smartphones and they stay on facebook    until 3:00am which is very dangerous for the students.
