Makueni County Deputy Governor Lucy Mulili recently delivered a powerful message to students, teachers, and parents at AIC Mwaani Girls’ School during their prize-giving day. Her address, delivered with a blend of gratitude and concern, emphasized the importance of peaceful conflict resolution and the role of all stakeholders in fostering a positive educational environment.
Speaking at the event, where she was the guest of honor, Mulili commended the students for their exemplary behavior and academic achievements. She highlighted the school’s impressive performance in national exams, which has made it a sought-after institution in the county. “This school is one of the best in the county. The enrollment is high due to the good grades posted by students, especially in national exams. As a result, everyone wants to bring their child here,” she noted with pride.
Despite the celebration of academic excellence, Mulili also expressed concern over recent disruptions in some schools across the county. She pointed out that student strikes have led to significant damage to school property, placing an additional financial burden on parents and guardians who are already struggling with economic constraints. “There have been strikes in some schools in the county, and the parents/guardians have been forced to incur the cost of repairing damaged properties despite most of them struggling to make ends meet with the economic constraints,” Mulili remarked.
The Deputy Governor urged students to channel their grievances through appropriate and peaceful means rather than resorting to demonstrations that can disrupt the learning environment and cause unnecessary damage. She emphasized the need for dialogue and constructive communication between students, teachers, and school administrators as a means of addressing concerns.
Mulili also called on teachers to embrace inclusivity within the classroom. She stressed that every student learns at their own pace and should be given the necessary support to understand the material without facing discrimination. “Teachers should embrace inclusivity in schools since there are children who take time to understand, and they should not be discriminated against,” she advised. Her message underscored the importance of a supportive educational environment that caters to the diverse needs of all students.
In her address, Mulili further highlighted the critical role of parents and guardians in the education of their children. She urged them to take an active role in their children’s lives by providing discipline, counseling, and a supportive home environment. “Parents/guardians should take full responsibility of their children by disciplining, counseling, and being closer to them,” she emphasized.
Mulili’s address is a reminder of the collective responsibility required to maintain a conducive learning environment. By fostering open communication, embracing inclusivity, and supporting students and educators, the community can work together to address challenges and promote academic excellence. Her call for peace and constructive engagement serves as a valuable reminder of the importance of collaboration in overcoming obstacles and ensuring that students can focus on their education without unnecessary disruptions.
In conclusion, Deputy Governor Lucy Mulili’s message at the AIC Mwaani Girls’ School prize-giving day highlights the need for a collaborative effort among students, teachers, parents, and the community. Her call for peaceful conflict resolution and inclusivity is a step towards creating a more supportive and effective educational environment in Makueni County.
