Parents urged to take more interest in their children’s academics

Parents urged to take more interest in their children’s academics

Parents have been advised to invest more in the education of their children for a secured future.

The advice was given in Lagos on Thursday at the annual graduation/prize-giving ceremony of Laddertop Nursery &Primary School.

Speaking at the event, Abayomi Ogein, chairman of the occasion, urged the parents not to be weary in investing in their children’s future, even though challenges abound in today’s society. He urged the parents to show more interest in their children’s progress in their academics, by looking at their books, checking their homework, buying the necessary books and meeting their needs as much as possible.

Ogein, who noted that nothing good comes easy, urged the parents to also show good examples at home in whatever thing they do before the children, as “charity begins at him.” He said that no matter the teaching in school, the real classroom is at home, where the children learn from their parents. He said that most times, what a child eventually becomes comes from the home.

In his remarks, Christopher Megwara, husband of the proprietress, said the parents must not forget the days of little beginning and that they must continue to sow in the lives of their children as they will reap bountifully in a short while. He prayed for the parents for constant divine provision and also of sound health. He also prayed for the children for God’s abiding presence, excellence and divine protection.

Priscilla Megwara, the proprietress, in her speech, expressed her gratitude to God for his protection all through the session as there was no loss of life of any pupil or parent. She also appreciated the parents for their faith in Laddertop, pledging that the school will always do anything possible to align with latest developments in teaching and learning processes for the overall good of the pupils.
