HIV and AIDS IN OUR SCHOOLS

There is another threat in our schools of HIV and AIDS. Educators support the war against HIV and AIDS through education activities and because the learners value their health and have a will to live, we do our best to help them.
New infections on teenagers seem to be on the decline according to statistics. We encourage our learners to abstain from sex until they are mature and financially independent, I know most organisations put an emphasis on the use of condoms, I am not against that idea but they should also be encouraged to make the right choices.
In Kwa- Zulu Natal leaders such as Isilo sama Zulu, King Goodwill Zwelithini play a very important role in encouraging teenagers to abstain from sex. Every year there is Umkhosi Womhlaga in the royal kraal in which teenagers meet with older ladies who work hard to pass on good values to young girls in schools. I really respect " Ungangezwe Lakhe" for the role he is playing.
LOVE LIFE also works with our school to educate our learners about HIV and AIDS although  HIV and sex education exist in school as part of the wider Life Orientation Curriculum it is hindered due to lack of training of teachers and unwillingness of educators and schools to provide this education as some parents feel their children are still young.
