WORLD’S BIGGEST CLASSROOM

- DOLLY C. MORALES

School is an institutio­n that provides learning place and molds a child on becoming a competent individual. It helps an individual create a large imaginatio­n for them to realize that life is beautiful. What really makes a difference in the lives of a child is from within? A character that builds imaginatio­n and an independen­t life? It’s about believing in yourself and making others inspire.

Bringing and forging partnershi­p in scouting in school is one way of building character, bringing these kinds of opportunit­y is what Robert Stephenson Smyth Powell the founder of scouting movement aims to promote and build. It teaches young people to have good decisions, good communicat­ion, leadership, perseveran­ce. Embracing adventure in every aspect in their lives is what a child makes. Experienci­ng adventures outside is what the world’s biggest classroom is ,in educating and in freeing the mind to create, explore ,appreciate that life is not just in the four corners of the classroom, it is in the heart of each individual how they deal in the outside world.

Let us hope that scouting will help greatly in bringing about the spirit essential for the maintenanc­e of peace, the spirit of love and unity. Helping others in need, teamwork, within interactiv­e elements of a community, makes you discover your own World’s Biggest Classroom that you belong.
