School closed due to COVID-19, but learning has not stopped for the students or the teachers.
Home packets were prepared for the students. Still not sure when the children will return to school, but in the meantime, the teachers participates in a 3 day teaching seminar. It was a positive experience for the teaching staff. We wish to enrich our teachers and bring what they learned to the students.
