R labs - My school of hope

Throughout the years i have avoided learning about computers relying on my late wife to keep contact with our children and friends and passing on all the news to me. Now that i am on my own, RLabs has become my school of hope,teaching me social networking and giving me easier and quicker methods of keeping in touch with my children, a married daughter and a married son who lives in wales.The other son fortunately still lives at home and i can just shout at him.

Unemployment

Unemployment in our community
Unemployment is one of the major contributors to the instability in all the important spheres of our community and the spin-offs causes so much devastation in the lives of people both young and old.
As is evident form this picture the youth have a hard time everyday coping with the day to day struggles and subsequently resort to undesirable activities causing harm to themselves and those around them.

R Labs is proving a spring board to the young to overcome this problem
by educating and advising on important subjects that will improve the chances
of those who accept these offers.

Children is my passion and my belief is that all children must be treated equal.  Working with children means educating them and providing them a safe and secure environment. I never new when I started at the age of 17 that children is my love of my life even though I only had 1 child.  I dedicated most of my life to the company that I work for and still doing it at present.  In the past I took most of my work home at night and that means serving burnt offerings to my daughter due to forgetting that I had food cooking on the stove, but it gave me pleasure and I knew what I wanted out of life and what I am busy trying to achieve.  I gained so much experience due to observing and trying it out for myself.  I am a bookkeeper, fundraiser, administrator,
grade R teacher, supervisor and if my cook is absent I must cook food for 120 children.  It gives me great joy in what I am doing and I will keep on doing it until I retire.  I had a food fair on Saturday 27th October 12 and I am busy planning a trip with my grade R's to Hendon Park as their farewell and at the same time I am busy planning a concert with the children.  And at the end of the day I go home fulfilled.
When i started here all i wanted to do was to understand what it meant to be computer literate,well i am not there yet but thanks to the expert facilitators at r labs i am getting there.Looking forward to all the remaining sessions.Thank you R labs.
