My fellow teachers, it’s that time of year once again – it’s sem break for some but for us it’s
another journey of professional development and hopefully a fun-filled and worthwhile
experience.

That’s right, even if we are not literally taking a break from our role as classroom teachers,
this training/seminar is somewhat a refresher course for us and a perfect opportunity for us to keep
ourselves updated of the educational trends.

Remember, you can’t give what you don’t have so if you want to give more to your students
and to further your commitment in teaching, attending the inset today might just actually be a
right decision.

Since this event is deemed significant, let us officially commence our gathering today by
asking divine intervention as  _____________, a ______________ teacher lead us all in
prayer. This shall be followed by the singing of our National Anthem and the _________hymn . Let us all stand.

training?
