What ever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. If you continue to believe as you have
always believed you will continue to act as you have always acted. If you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue to get what
you have always gotten.If you want different results in your life
and your work, all you have to do is Change your mind.

What do you think we can do about it?
What do you think we can do about it?
Walk the talk- practicing what we preach Make punctuality and regularity a priority Ensure that they eat a healthy meal Keep in touch with the school management Replicate the discipline that we try to establish in
school- double standards confuse children Targeting excellence – not just bare minimum Align your lives with DEEN Keep yourself updated Model respect for school even if you do not agree with
certain aspects Know that school recommendations are based on
performance in schools and not only in the CIE – and they are IMPORTANT!
Model and practice GRATITUDE – not everyone is as blessed as we are.
Give feedback and suggestions – you are most WELCOME 03433021560
