Inside the walls of our schools there should be a passion burning in every teachers heart to inspire minds and fan the flames of a fire that can never be extinguished .
Irish poet William Butler Yeats said “
Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire."
When a fire burns it needs a constant supply of fuel to keep it alive . The vocation to do and to teach should be the echoes heard inside the walls of our schools by those children who need a spark of genius to light the fires of passion in their minds .
The fires that burn in the heart and soul of education is a passion to feed the desire for our future generations .
John F. Kennedy said
“Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future." -
To feed a hungry mind with proper nourishment is the vocation to teach . The ingredients are not hard to find . An ounce of wisdom , outweighs reams of paperwork , a pinch of goodness brings a better flavour for everyone to taste .
Plant the seeds of wisdom in fertile soil , to allow new ideas to come and then continue the watering with patience to bring strong growth in the fields of diversity with education .
C.S.Lewis once said .
“The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts."
