The cycle of the educational year is about to start once again. Within days, we will be into the first quarter of the 2023 school year.

As a retired educator I still remember the anticipation with which I looked forward to the opening stanza each time a new school year commenced. There was anticipation and a hope to be able to build on the previous year.,

One almost hoped that the lessons of the previous year resulting in success and leading to challenges not yet mastered, would stand in good stead in going forward.

As we stand on the threshold of a new school year, I’d like to wish everyone connected with Education all the very best for 40 weeks of academic fulfilment and developmental success.
