My Alma Mater
From my school campus, I always gave a longing look at the gates of the Church Park Teachers Training College. Yes, I did enter the Church Park Training College one day and the magic grew exponentially. The question asked to me by the then Principal of the Training College is still resounding in my ears, “Helen, you need to have iron nerves to study under me in the Training School. Are you prepared?” I said, “YES”, with no knowledge of what it takes to study there. I thank Rev. Sr. Anita Stephen for trusting me to have iron nerves.
I indeed developed the iron nerves. I successfully passed out of the training school with a distinction in my Teachers Training. I owe all that I am today to my Alma Mater. I have always stood brave and always stood true.
This is a line from my school song. I can proudly say that I have thus far lived up to each and every single line that I sang in my school song. The lyrics are fresh in my mind and I don’t need a google search.
