How to be motivated...

On Saturday 8 March 2025, the Infant Jesus Learning Centre in Kampung Pasir, Seremban (Malaysia), organised a motivational session for parents and students, led by Mr Vickneswaran, a retired teacher.

The importance of education

The trainer encouraged parents to keep a close eye on their children's studies, highlighting the disciplinary problems encountered by schools (vaping, absenteeism, bullying, etc.) and due to poor education. It was an interactive session, with parents asking questions about how to prevent such problems from occurring!

Managing work better

At the same time, twenty-three children took part in the motivational session for pupils led by Ms Rufina Francis, a volunteer teacher from the Centre, who taught them how to plan a timetable to keep up with their studies. She stressed one point: only education can lift them out of the shackles of poverty!

The day ended with the parents meeting the teachers at the Centre.
