More floating schools

Reswan continues to show the importance of education for children and adults. The floating schools provide families with classes for their children six days a week, and the parents can attend training sessions on how to  deal with their personal finances and how to farm during the monsoon season. Families are offered solar powered lamps for the attendance of their children for school. The children can stay on the boats after sunsets while their parents continue to work, which helps increase the families income.

    I really enjoyed reading your post. I loved all the pictures that show how children are happy by going to this school. It is amazing to see how this floating school helps families and their children to learn and continue their education. I am looking forward to learn more about these floating schools and the services they offer to uphold families and their children. Great job

    Teresa,

    Thank you for sharing information regarding the floating schools. I have heard of unusual means in which to educate, such as bottle schools constructed by The Manifest Foundation, but I had never heard of this unique idea and enjoy learning about heir positive contribution to education, the families they serve, and their communities as a whole.

    Your post are so great. I just enjoy seeing the process of education not taken for granted. The sacrifices of families and children for the process is phenomenal.
