"Yesterday two of my children started school, so now we are happy that all of my four children are back in school. I think they have been good at dealing with what has been a very different everyday life. But they are happy to return to all that they have missed: the teaching, their peers and their teachers, - in short, a school life.
But not every children in the world are so lucky. I have read that UNESCO estimates that school closures around the world due to the Corona crisis are affecting education for over 70 per cent. It has a great impact on the world's children, especially girls and especially in developing countries. After my meeting with the Minister of Development last week, it is clear that we must ensure education - even in times of crisis.
Because education is the way to a better future for everyone. For girls, education specifically means that they have a greater chance of taking themselves out of poverty, that they marry later, that they have fewer and healthier children, and that they have financial freedom and can contribute to society."

ReplyDeleteBelle fratrie en route pour l'école ; à part Isabella qui est en pantalon, nous pouvons voir les trois autres les jambes nues ; j'ai froid pour eux !
ReplyDeleteI'm green with envy. At my place there still is no end to homeschooling to be seen. Scarlett Witch
ReplyDeleteWe are looking at online fall semester college/university courses as well. I know the kids are ready to go back, but we are seeing a small jump in COVID cases as we slowly reopen the economy. As trying as it is for all, I think most agree it is for the greater good to take slowly.
DeleteSurely happy to be back in their Danish school again … before Covid-19 and the lockdown, they went to school in Verbier.
ReplyDeleteNew pics ? Not the one with the young girls. Indeed, we haven't seen much from CP Mary under the corona pandemi. Hopefully she is felling well.

ReplyDeleteGreat message CP MARY! I followed you from the Pub, marriage, children and all the dress up Events...Perfect!!! It IS daunting sometimes with demands for Show on you and your lovely children....thank you for the video n pictures!! GOD PUT YOU THERE.!!
ReplyDeleteI am sure the children would be happy they are back at school and some sort of normality. They are a lovely family.
ReplyDeleteCute pics. However, I'm weary of the world's elite telling people in developing countries how many children to have. I thought colonialism was a thing of the past.
