A Stone to sharp blades

The name of ECCD School is “
Gardener of flower”, located in Pyin Ka Toe Chaung village and under the Kan Gyi Dauk Township. KMSS organization is implementing DREAM program in the village with the partnership of Stromme foundation.

Since “Gardener of flower” provided by DREAM project opened at 4^th February 2016, the children were confortable to learn and enjoined the school because of new building. So did parents.  But at that time school didn’t have playground and enough facilities for learning. Committee was tired of supporting to build playground quickly because they were doing for teacher salary even small amount. Teachers also scarified their precious time to the children with strong commitments even they got inadequate amount paid. During the initial stage of ECCD School, they all were straggling to precede the future (Dream to become true).  

               Coming along the day, months and a year later and now this ECCD School are becoming perfection stage because ECCD committee tried with great commitment to the school. “By now school has new playground and raise the rate of salary for the teacher but still need to increase the rate, and hope that they can do gradually,” said by U Zaw Hla Tun, ECCD committee’s head. One the other hand school parents’ concern on their children sending to school is becoming higher because of parental awareness training given by teachers from social welfare department.

Nant Wai Wai Aung said, “her chid, Aung Ye Lin is quite different before school and now because his behavior are polite, wiliness to going to school is amazingly unbelievable high, he tell her mom everything learnt from school and initiate paying vow to his parents before he sleep so she fully satisfies to send her son to ECCD school.”  That’s why she spreads god news about ECCD to her neighbors and encourages some of the parents to send their children to school.

Based on this progress; villagers, committee members and dream program arranged for one of the school teachers out of three who didn’t fully gain training and get certificate for Social Welfare Department, so by now this teacher is attending TOT training for a month.
