THE SCHOOL

This is the monthly report that I submitted as part of being the volunteer coordinator at Cosmic. Thought you guys might find it interesting to see what it is really like here. Please read it and now that I do enjoy my time there, though it is just challenging. The children are all (well 90 percent of them) are great on an individual level.

A new building has started. Though little has been done on it in tallest few weeks with only the foundations being lade.All the buildings have started to be fitted with plugs and lightbulbs so electricity which will run off a generator is now not too far off. Though this is in Ghanaian time however!

This month saw a total of 5 volunteers at the project. Rebecca left early on. I arrived and Madona came a few days after me for 3 Weeks. Weike has started to take a more backward role as she leaves soon.

A new teacher started this month to teach Class One. The children arriving a great time respecting him. Weike who was once the primary teacher for that class is noticing how some of the children are aggressive behaviorally and academically. It is fair to say that the volunteers and also Madam herself are not that happy with his current performance. It is not certain yet if he will be with us next term.

The children in KG which is primarily taught by Ley at the moment are showing great improvement. She has developed a tight schedule, clear rules and guidelines that the children on the whole are responding to. This includes the use of time out for beating (hitting and hurting other students). Her main issue now is making sure that students from other classes are not disturbing hers.

nursery is continuing to be a struggle with a large number of young children in a small room. It is not helped that all the children have very different needs and it is impossible to cater for them. I have found times in when teaching here that I just want to scream. This class certainly tests my patience to the extreme.

School is about to go into holidays for three weeks and will resume about the 8th of April. The children are all looking forward to "Our Day" which is the last day of term next week. It is meant to be like a big party.
