Weijun, an ex-Pathlighter is now in Sec 1 in a mainstream school. He came back to Pathlight to visit teachers and friends. Our Principal Ms Kho chatted with him.

Ms Kho: So what do you miss about Pathlight?

Weijun: I miss the IT lessons.

Ms Kho: Don’t you have IT lessons in your school now? Is it you miss the learning and the interesting way our teachers teach you ?

Weijun: No. In mainstream school, there are 40 students in a class. It takes 10min to settle down and start the IT class. In Pathlight, only 10 students in a class. Very fast to settle down to start the class. I miss that !
