With current circumstances, it’s been more difficult than usual to keep track of what our young scholars and citizens have been up to. We’ve been able to hear from a few of them to see how they’re handling #Lockdown and #Covid19 in general. Here are a few reports
“As we know teenage life teenage activities have been terminated, but this is what I have been up to. As reality sank, i glued myself to all entertainment in my parent’s household,from movie,music streaming till all became repetitive and then with boredom injected into me I realized that schooling and academic hormones would soon disappear from me. No matter how hard I strived to grasp my study material the absence of my teachers and classmates still knocked the sense that corona virus pandemic had stopped the realities of normal life. I can honestly confess that my daily routine is now on an early jogging session from house to the Dangamvura Provincial Heroes Acre Hill; reading which still I have to acclimatize to,cooking ,laundry,taking an afternoon nap,watching television shows. My only hope is for Jesus to eradicate this diseases so we can resume our normal lives”- Audrey Saunyama (Form 1)“During this “coronavirus holiday”, I have been experimenting new things which I never did before. One of those things is gardening. I’m using my knowledge from school into practise and the results surely shows that the Agriculture ‘A’ I had at O’ level was well deserving. The output is very pleasing. Besides gardening, as a kid who wants a bright future, I’m continuing doing my school work with an aid of online learning, which have been very fruitful.”- Vusimusi Kanyenze (Form 5)
“Since the lockdown started due to an outbreak of covid-19, I had already made an itinerary but it was too late to shut the stable when the horses have already bolted.As for now i am just an onlooker to human beings moving up and down but I sometimes help my grandmother fetch firewood in the woods. I always give myself an outcry because of going to school.Even the religion I believe in, it is closed and I also miss the community services we used to have as CLUBHOUSE team and the festival we were supposed to hold this year.As for now I and my family put trust in God and we do have an orthodox that everything is going to turn back to normal as it was in the beginning, thank you.”- Angel Kudakwashe Sikimarira (form 1)“The COVID -19 “holiday” is horrible but I’m trying very hard to do my schoolwork and I’m Jogging everyday to maintain healthy body. I’m also doing things that I didn’t do regularly like reading the bible n also gardening using the knowledge I aquired at school as an Agriculture student..n I’m also playing football a lot due to lack of things to do.” Taku M Gwede (Form 5)
