Rukungiri Municipal Education Officer Cautions Holiday Makers Against Wasting Time

Rukungiri: Holiday makers have been urged to use their short holiday productively instead of wasting time on social media, attending parties uninvited, and listening to music all day.

The call was made by Rukungiri Municipal Education Officer, Robert Agume, during an interview with our reporter at his office over the weekend. Agume revealed that this school holiday will last only three weeks, and advised learners to spend it wisely.

He encouraged them to concentrate on holiday packages, completing homework, and supporting their parents with household chores, including activities like working in the garden and harvesting coffee where available.

Agume also emphasized the importance of parental involvement, noting that some parents get too busy with work and business, neglecting their children. He said children face several challenges, such as academic struggles and issues related to peer relationships, including boyfriends and girlfriends, which require parental guidance.
