The School of Grace Celebrates World Book Day

Its World Book Day today!
Our children at the School of Grace Learning and Vocational Centre joined the rest of the world in marking this day by reading various storybooks from the popular Ladybird series.

They had a dramatization of the popular story ‘Hensel and Gretel’ with lots of sweets and chocolates to share.

you missed, didn’t you?
It was more fun when parents joined, dressed in beautiful costumes to depict characters in traditional and conventional children storybooks

We appreciate the indefatigable team at the School of Grace and our lovely parents who showed up.
Now, have you read a book today?

We had our Inclusive Sporting Event at the School of Grace on February 14th, 2020. 
It was fun seeing the lines of discrimination and rejection broken and relaced with acceptance, love, and inclusiveness. For everyone there, it was just ‘children on the field’ and no other form of classification.

Here are interesting photos from the event below:
