Notes
Diana and Maria went to Nawandyo village that is A and B. Diana introduced Maria to Nawandyo A village where the Health Education program is going to commence. Diana told the community and the leaders to welcome the Health program because it is greatly going to add on the progress of their village. They clapped their hands as they welcomed Maria, who told them that Kibo loves them so much, and she later introduced the Health program to the community. The community welcomed the program and went ahead to add on some members in the committee for easy mobilization. Diana went to Nawandyo B with Maria, to continue with the lesson of good and bad parenting and how to fix it. The community was ready for the lesson. Diana emphasized on parents taking full responsibility of their children. No one knows the children better than the parents themselves. The parents should build a strong relationship with themselves, compliment one another before the children. Diana also told them to always have time for their children like eating together, praying together and telling stories. This amused the village and said that they are going to try it out to see how effective it will be. Diana told them that it will work. Diana invited Maria, to teach about how to fix bad parenting. Before Maria teaching, Diana told the community of Nawandyo B that Maria will be working in Nawandyo A as a health educator and she is also well versed with children and families. They welcomed her as she took over the flow. She told them that parents should stop doing things for their children, encourage children to be independent and above all promote love in the family. Diana summarized by encouraging them to invite other community members to attend the lessons and to put on masks because Covid is real.
