The Girl and Her Bucket

A young girl was going to market with a bucket of milk on her head. "With the gold that I get from the sale of this milk, I'll buy a red hen," she said. "The hen will lay eggs, they'll hatch and then I'll have many chicks to be raised. I'll feed them well and when they're grown, they will lay eggs. And those eggs will hatch and I will have more hens that will lay more eggs that will hatch into chicks.

I'll be rich and I'll wear fine clothes with emeralds and rubies from my collar to my toes and one day perhaps I shall visit the Queen. I shall bring her rare gifts from China. I'll enter the court with my arms full of treasure. When I bow low to the queen, I shall say, "For your majesty's pleasure!"

And she bowed low. With that sweep of her arm, she knocked off the bucket and spilled her fantasy load.

Where did the girl put the bucket of milk on?

• On the market

• On the way to the market

• On the Queen’s palace

• On the girl’s head.

• On the girl’s dream

Being On time

Being on time is a beautiful social ethic and one of great importance, as it creates efficiency in system and implies respect for one another. However, it is one the many values that is not easy for our students to learn.

Inner discipline, one that comes from an understanding of the set rules and regulation, is the highest form behavior. Most excellent schools try to instill this with a loving environment. Why, even adults arrive late to meeting, work, etc. Here, we do not agree that late comers should be shut out. They can be given warnings, most of which are enough to make them try their best to reach the school on time latter. If this fails, invite the parent to school.

By closing the gates, the school is behaving cruelly, to which we prefer not to expose our children.
