Vic asked me to blog on my first experience working with children so that next time when I am weary, at least I can have this blog to turn to, remembering the first experience.
One sentence/phase to describe my first experience working in Patschoolhouse: "Holistic experience"! Friendly and sincere staff, great environment with lots of plain water(for some closer friends who know me) and finally adorable and lovely children. What more can I ask for?
I love the children, but not their behaviour at times. I've learnt that if I dont like them behaving in a certain manner for example, snatching, I will tell them, "Brendon, I dont like you snatching the ball from Jolene. Can you please return back and ask her politely if you can borrow the ball from her". When you have to repeat this sentence every now and then....... is really no joke, hahahaha.... Thus, the most important character I have to develop is "PATIENCE".
Believing in time to come, I will develop my mind and heart to be like what the WOG says, LONGSUFFERING.
I prayed this prayer before entering into Patschoolhouse this morning, saying,
"Dear God, please give me wisdom to guide the children to become who you want them to be"!
And this prayer will follow me throughout the days, months and years in Patschoolhouse.
