In Their Own Words
| On the new building: | “I like the new building because the quality is good and it is very nice. Before, we had class in the pagoda and outside, under trees. Now, we have this concrete building for classes, so I am very happy. I think this new building is a good thing for the village because it is a good building and it will be good for a long time, so we can use it for the next generation as well.”
|
| On school subjects: | “I like teaching all subjects, but my favorite is mathematics because I want my students to know how to calculate. The students like social science because it is easy to learn. They don’t like applied science because it is difficult for them.”
|
| On the joys of his job: | “I have always wanted to be a teacher, since I was in school, so I am very happy to be in this job.”
|
| On the school community: | “The school community is very happy with the building because they have never seen a concrete school building before.”
|
| Message for the Feeney Family: | “I would like to thank the Feeney family and wish them good luck.” |
