Does your child know their mother tongue? I saw this on Mwiki Goodhope Academy (MGA Mwiki) Facebook page, and I couldn’t help but think wow, “Do my childen know their mother tongue?”
Well, Kasarani’s top school and Nairobi’s top ten academy Mwiki Goodhope Academy group of Schools has introduced vernacular classes.
A small snippet from the school on their mission to launching such a program is to have this time that the children are no longer in school, to build a solid identity. True to its word identity is tied in with their culture.
Interestingly, what amazes the most about the launch of the program is that it is all-inclusive. Vernacular classes are not only meant for kids, but the entire family.
With the specified time allocation of 6-8 p.m, it’ll give the family something to look forward to. It’ll bring together parents and their children and improve their bonding.
