Frau Schürmann und Frau Schürmann!!

Our new Sprachassistentin Frau Schürmann ( Mirijam) had just begun her work with us when she invited in her Mum Frau Schürmann to give us a presentation.We were working on the theme of poverty particularly the area of child labour when she arrived in our school. Good fortune would have it that her Mum works for one of the largest Childrens' Charities " Kindermissionswerk" in Germany and she was in town . Frau Schürmann ( senior ) gave us a fascinating talk on the Charity's work throughout the world. We watched video clips,read articles and discussed the issues facing children all over the world.We had to do group projects and all this in German !!We learned that the most important tool that we can provide those in poverty is EDUCATION ! We could see how fortunate we are here in Europe and decided not to moan or complain about coming to school anymore !!!
