Prayer: The
headteacher called the meeting to order and asked Ismail Ali to open the
meeting with a prayer.
Exposure trip: The
members discussed the needs of the school and priorities. They agreed there is a need for them to have
exposure tour so that the children can see what TAS has done in other
schools. It will also open the mind of
the leavers since they have never been outside the village.
Girls hostel:
The members talked at length about the risk the girls are
facing when coming to school because some of them are grown up girls (big
girls) and the come from far – a distance of at least 4 km from the
school. Go and come back they will cover
a distance of 8 km everyday. So it is
difficult for them to concentrate and perform well. So they make request if a hostel can be built
for them so that they can camp in the school compound.
Kitchen and Dining hall:
The members thanked TAS for constructing the new kitchen
but also said that a dining hall is important because the children feed outside
when taking their lunch. The area MP has
promised to construct the dining call through the CDF this year 2016. The members were happy and appreciated the
news.
Equipping of the dining hall:
The members questioned the headteacher and asked him who
will equip the dining hall. He told them he will write and ask for help to well
wishers so that we can get assisted. It
was a hot motion but the members wished to hope for the best.
Boys dormitory:
The members talked and discuss at length that despite
girls coming from far there are also boys coming from the same places. So they suggested that as a way forward there
is a need for constructing a dormitory for the boys also. So that they can stay inside the school
compound, conduct their preps during the night with the supervision of teachers
and as a result they can perform well in the exams and improve their discipline
as they will stay close to their teacher.
AOB: Since there
was no other business to be discussed the meeting ended at 4.30pm.
