DORMOTORY AND BOARDING LIFE AT ST. CATHERINE JUNIOR SCHOOL.
My name is Bazira Christabelle Atwenze. I am in Primary Seven Crane. Boarding school is very enticing because, the girls are separated from boys. Whereas some schools have both genders in the same dormitory, at our school, we are separated. We are cared for by our matrons who iron our uniforms, help us to wash and sometimes give us guidance about health and personal hygiene.
Our school always makes sure that the pupils in boarding feed on a balanced diet during lunch and supper. We are engaged in co-curricular activities during the weekend, watching TV or even listening to music. On some days of the week, we always have canteen where we buy snacks using the money paid by our parents. Some children emaciate because they don’t want to eat yet the school provides us with a balanced diet and always want us to have all meals.
Though, sometimes school is boring, the teachers on duty try to make it enticing so that they don’t bore us. Our parents are also given time to come and visit us on engagements or visitation days. Those are the reasons why boarding life at my school is not bad.
