Recent funding to provide tablets for the teachers has allowed them to handle the mix of in-person teaching and online classes more efficiently during the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
Some children are still studying online but classes are slowly returning to normal. The tablets will continue to be invaluable as thekindergarten teaching style evolves.
The uncertainty of the situation and the interruption to routine has added to the psycho-social issues of the children, so teachers are concentrating on team activities and art therapy.
Staff training on peace education techniques including trauma recovery through art, dialogue and communication with students and parents, child rights and conflict resolution is being provided to teachers and teaching assistants.
Monthly parent meetings are more important than ever as the economic problems of Lebanon impact the refugee community severely. The meetings provide an opportunity for parents to share their concerns and discuss common problems.
As one parent commented, the school meetings are a good opportunity for them to socialise as well.
Your support to this project is providing more hope for the future of these children. Thank you very much.
