Story of primary school health teachers training  

---

Mr. Sixmund B.Lumba (Head teacher of Mtambaswala primary school) 

Explaining to his students and their parents so that they know their children eye problems

Before this training I had never thaught how important eye to my students and how serious if the students have eye problems. However, after the training I have become a lot of concerns about my students’ eye health, and now we are teaching eye health in the class to make students aware of importance of their eyes and common eye problems. Before the training when I saw students with red eyes or foreing material I thought they were in poor hygiene, so I punished them. It never occurred to me that there would be anything wrong with thier eyes. Now, I have quite good understnadings on the primary eye health and I can teach and help my students to have good behaviors for their healty eyes.
