A NOTE FROM MAM CELADIŇA:
Dear Parents and Students,
I hope everyone is doing great! We are now facing a serious pandemic crisis
and our education system is merely affected by it. But this challenge could never be a
reason for us to stop learning. This is probably a great time for both parents and
students to enjoy the bond while learning. At these trying times, let us all collaborate
and support each other. It is not easy, but we must learn to adjust to the new
situation, embrace it and be used to it. To my grade 11 students; we may not have
met before, and we may not know each other, but I am very much eager to help you
learn in the best way I could. We don’t have enough materials but your perseverance,
patience and commitment are the only way for you to succeed. With the guidance of
your parents and family, I hope you will sincerely commit yourselves in answering
every task that will be provided to you. And so, to my grade 12 students; you know
me very well as to how I assess your performance, so you know exactly what to do.
Let us have FAITH in GOD and never lose hope, your future depends on you.
"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it." Good Luck
Every One and Welcome to School Year 2020-2021!!!
