"Buyela" Esikoleni

Njengoba singena esikhathini sonyaka lapho izingane zilangazelela amanye amasonto ambalwa esikhathi sechibi, zihlala kuze kube sebusuku, futhi zilale, konke kuyilapho abazali bejwayele ukubala amahora, kulo nyaka sibuyela esimisweni sesikole, njengezinto eziningi ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule, kubukeka kwehluke kakhulu. Abazali, kufaka phakathi mina nomkami, bekufanele sibhekane nombuzo wokugcina izingane ekhaya noma ukuzibuyisela esikoleni mathupha. Njengoba ngibhala lokhu, ngiyazi futhi ukuthi kunemindeni eminingana engenakho ukunethezeka kokukhetha. Kumelwe nje benze lokho umsebenzi wabo, impilo, kanye nokulinganisela kwabo njengomzali okubavumela ukuba bakwenze. Ngakho-ke, ngenkathi ngiphawula ngenqubo yomndeni wami ukwenza ukukhetha kwethu, ngiyazi, futhi ngiyabonga, sisethubeni lokukwazi ukwenza lokho.

Ukukhetha. Njengomzali womuntu oneminyaka engu-16 no-13 ubudala, ngifunde manje ukuthi iningi lobuzali bami lifinyelela ekuthathweni kwezinqumo, nokuthi lezo zinqumo zizilolonge kanjani izingane zami, zombili ngokuhle nangokubi. Ezinye izinketho bezilula, njengokuthi awukho uswidi ngaphambi kokudla izithelo nemifino. Noma "cha, awukwazi ukubuka amanye amahora amabili we-TV. Phumela ngaphandle wenze okuthile! ” Okunye ukukhetha kwakunzima kakhulu, njengokuthi isiphi isijeziso esifanele lapho bebanjwa ngamanga, noma ngamabomu baqala ukudlubulunda njengoba bekhula futhi bephusha imingcele yenkululeko yabo. Ngenkathi okunye ukukhetha kwakunzima nje, njengokuthatha isinqumo sokuqhubekela phambili ngokuhlinzwa kwelinye lamantombazane ami lapho wayeneminyaka emibili ngokulinika isikhathi esithe xaxa sokubona ukuthi umzimba wakhe wayilungisa yini le nkinga ngokwemvelo. Kodwa-ke, kuzo zonke lezo zimo bekukhona okungaguquguquki okukodwa, okungukuthi, bekubukeka sengathi kuhlala kunokukhetha okuhle nokubi noma okungenani okukodwa obekukubi kakhulu. Lokhu kwenza umsebenzi wethu waba lula kancane. Uma okungenani sithambekele kokunye obekusohlangothini oluhle lwe-spectrum noma sikunikeze isisindo esikhulu ekuthathweni kwezinqumo zethu, singahle njalo sibuyele emuva sizizwe sizethemba ukuthi isikhathi ”i-monologue yangaphakathi.

Ngeshwa, njengoba sibuyele esikoleni kulo nyaka, kubonakala sengathi ayikho “inketho engcono” ongayikhetha. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, singabagcina ekhaya, futhi sifunde online. Inkinga enkulu lapha ukuthi mina nomkami asibona othisha, futhi leyo ndlela izodinga ukwesekwa okukhulu yithi. Sobabili sinabazali ababengothisha, ngakho-ke siyazibonela mathupha inani lokuzinikela, isikhathi, ukuhlela nobuchwepheshe obudingekayo. Ukugcina amadodakazi ethu emakhaya nakho kunomthelela ekukhuleni komphakathi nangokomzwelo okwenzeka kakhulu ngenkathi bexhumana nontanga yabo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, singababuyisela esikoleni mathupha. Ngokusobala, inkinga enkulu lapha ukuthi bangavezwa yigciwane elibangela i-COVID-19, engaholela ekutheni bona, ilungu lomndeni noma umngani agule. Enye yamadodakazi ethu inezinkinga zokuphefumula, futhi banogogo nomkhulu esizama ukuxhumana nabo ngezikhathi ezithile, ngakho-ke isimo sethu sinabantu abathathu abanezici eziphakeme zobungozi. Ngokwami, nginomuzwa wokuthi ukukhetha okuhle kakhulu kungaba ukugcina wonke umuntu ekhaya futhi wonke umuntu enze ukufunda okukude futhi. Lokhu kuzwakala sengathi kungaba yindlela ephephe kunazo zonke, engcono yezempilo yomphakathi futhi kuzoqhubeka nokunikeza ochwepheshe bezokunakekelwa kwezempilo isikhathi esidingekayo sokuqonda i-COVID-19, futhi ekugcineni basebenzele umgomo. Kepha njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, lokho ngeke kumsebenzele wonke umuntu ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene, kufaka phakathi ezomphakathi nezomnotho. Ngaphandle kwesixazululo esisebenzela thina sonke, isinqumo size emindenini ngayinye.

Njengezinqumo ezinkulu ezedlule, mina nomkami saqala inqubo yethu yokwenza izinqumo ngokucwaninga ukuze silinganise ubuhle nobubi bezinketho zethu.

Ukube le bekungaba yindlela esebenzayo emndenini wethu, besinethemba lokuthi kulo nyaka kuzodingeka ukuthi kusingathwe ngendlela ehlukile ukwenza ukufunda kude kube yindlela esebenzayo. Ngocwaningo lwethu nolwazi olwenziwe izikole, sithole ukuthi basebenzise isikhathi esiningi ekuhleleni kwehlobo ukubuya kokuwa, kanye nakho konke ukulungisa ekufundeni okukude abakubekile ukuze ukufunda kubuyele kokujwayelekile ngangokunokwenzeka kubafundi futhi othisha.

Ekugcineni, sikhethe ukugcina amadodakazi ethu ekufundeni okukude engxenyeni yokuqala yonyaka. Kwakungesona isinqumo esasithatha kalula, futhi kwakungeyona neze isinqumo esithandwayo emadodakazini ethu, kepha kwakuyisona esasizizwa sikhululeke kakhulu ngaso. Sinenhlanhla yokuba nesikhathi nezinsiza zokubaxhasa ngenkathi besebenza emakhaya. Ngaleso simo esivumelana nezimo, siyakwazi ukunikeza lokhu inani elibalulekile futhi sisebenzele imiphumela emihle kakhulu. Siyazi ukuthi kuzoba nezinselelo kulokhu, futhi konke ngeke kuhambe kahle, kodwa siyazethemba ukuthi lokhu kuzoba yinto enhle kakhulu kithina kunangentwasahlobo edlule.

Njengoba wenza, noma wenze, ukukhetha kwakho isikole ekwindla, ngifisela umndeni wakho okuhle kakhulu kulezi zikhathi eziyinqaba nezilinga. Yize ngazi ukuthi ngeke kube yisinqumo esinzima sokugcina thina njengabazali esibizelwe ukuba sisenzele izingane zethu, ngiyethemba ukuthi ezimbalwa ezilandelayo okungenani zibuyile ohlangothini olulula lwe-spectrum.
