It was a profoundly sad and painful moment as we laid our 11-year-old son Mike Jnr Gava to rest after his tragic passing on Friday shortly after returning home from school. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
This devastating loss calls on us all to do better. Parents must communicate more openly with their children and listen without judgement.
To school administrators and educators: open, timely communication with parents is essential. Be alert to warning signs, take concerns seriously and act early. Our children’s lives depend on it.
Talk to your children. Check in on your learners. Speak up when something feels wrong. Do not wait.It was a profoundly sad and painful moment as we laid our 11-year-old son Mike Jnr Gava to rest after his tragic passing on Friday shortly after returning home from school.
