I have this habit of documenting my experiences and reflections whenever I go for learning journeys. Those of you who are my FB friends would testify to the numerous mini articles I have posted regarding my overseas museum visits.
At first glance, you may wonder- why did I use a Latin phrase - " Fabula est vestri " for my blog ? And by the way , what does it mean?
"Fabula est vestri" simply means "The story is yours". I may be away for 17 weeks for this course but I want to share with everyone my insights, my experiences and my reflections. In short, I believe that the knowledge that I have gained or will gain should not simply be stored inside my head but I hope that whatever I am going to share, they will
(1) provoke you to think about why you are doing what you are doing
(2) help you to reconnect your sense of purpose - reminding us of our 1st love which is teaching
(3) inspire you to dream big dreams for your children
I have always liken the role of a teacher as an Author or a Writer writing a book. As Guardians of Children's Future,we write their stories.
How we want to engineer a values-driven education for the children , we write the story.
How we want to make school fun and exciting for the children, we write the story
& not forgetting how we want to build a culture of professional excellence, we write the story.
Are you ready to write your story (for the children?)
PS - Thank you colleagues for your sms well wishes. YK & Bryan, I thought both of you want to date me for lunch ?
