Discipline your children, pastor tells parents
I
t was an atmosphere of glory and excitement recently at Redeemer’s Nursery and Primary School, FESTAC Town, Lagos, as it held valedictory/graduation and prize-giving day. The graduating pupils,116 in number, were all radiating in their wine red, pink and orange outfits. In his speech, the Chairman of the occasion, Pastor Olise Omede, who took his text from Proverbs 22:6, admonished parents to train up their children in the way they should go so that when they are old, they will not depart from it. He thanked the parents for counting them worthy to entrust their children to them. “I appreciate you all for committing your children into our hands. But please, be careful the way you handle these children because the moment you don’t train a child, you have lost a future. The devil has entered into all facets of the society. These days, we have children cult and you should also be mindful of the kind of things they watch
on TV because some cartoons are very demonic. Know who you are leaving your children with, what you are saying to them and what they see you do. Children learn by what they see their parents do” He also implored them to discipline their children whenever the need arises. “ Discipline a child any time he or she needs to be disciplined. Caning in school is not so much permitted but whenever a child is caned, there must be a reason. We will never abuse children.” He further stressed that some parents bring their children to school very late which is not good for a child as assembly is part of education. He promised that by next session, the library and the play ground will be ready. According to Omede, there will be air conditioners and fans in all the classrooms as the school will not relent in doing things that would make the school conducive to learning. Activities that marked the event were pre-
sentations by the graduating pupils, school choir, choreography, balle dance and presentation of prizes and certificates to the graduating pupils.
