On the early morning of Saturday, 20th September 2014, Makhaza branch held its third parents meeting for the year. Parents arrived early in great numbers. Despite the parents’ Saturday commitments, nothing could be more important than their children’s academic performance. The turn out of the parents was encouraging and the effort  the parents took to attend the meeting is highly appreciated.

 

The meeting was run by Busiswa Dayimani the Branch Assistant. The Agenda which included  attendance, report collection, speaking of english among others was welcomed by the parents. They showed interest in all the matters being discussed by asking questions and adding their suggestions. Zukile Keswa, Branch Coordinator, praised the parents for their involvement in monitoring the learners and working with us with regards to the schools and being a notable support system for the learners.

 

The parents were greatly pleased with the introduction of speaking English at all times in IY. A parent of a grade 9 learner said “I have been noticing change in my son he even speaks the language at home. He has  been selected to represent his school in Pretoria and I am confident he will do well as he can relate with others in English.”

Parents took turns in praising the work that IY does and giving the staff approval to continue and vowing their support for the success of IY.

 

Forward with Education………..!
