I came back home to this. Gaby (9 years old grade 5), says his teacher chose two of them to set example on. They were playing after tests and the teacher was angry.
Tomorrow is PTA for the secondary section, his brothers are there so I will be attending. I am thinking about how best to handle this.
The teacher used a gaz pipe. Out there you guys may not have gaz pipes but they are tiny pipes linking the gaz plate to the gaz bottle.
I got numb, and then cried, and then reached out to my sisterhood.
Thanks for your advice everyone

Oh my God! What is this!!!!! I’m so furious seeing these pictures. How dare someone do this to another’s child!!!! In the name of “teacher”! This is abuse. I’ve always hated the fact that teachers are given this much authority over children in schools. When I was in primary I was always left so scarred when the teacher had to beat us for silly little things. I mean these scars will last for sometime on his skin. That teacher should be sacked! I can’t believe how someone can just be hitting a child till wounds form. That’s wickedness. Please I’m so sorry Aunty Marie. This should not be happening!!

Thank you darling. And to say because they were playing after finishing their exams like what do you expect of 9 years old? I am not bent on getting him sacked but on getting a formal apology from him to my son and his class and myself. But he prefers being sacked so be it. The teacher obviously was taking out his frustration at 2 scapegoats. And am not the only parent oh

Thanks Joan, sincere or not that teacher will give one and will do so in class so as to be an example for his colleagues. I have already written the complaint, attached the evidence and copied all relevant. We meet at 12noon with the Dean of Studies and if he flinches, that includes reimbursement of the 3000frs I spent to get the hand examined and cleaned plus get eferalgan for fever, I move up. They know in those schools by now. Borrowing some words from a blogger friend’s tagline says: “He messed with the wrong child”. Have blessed week darling

And darling I just got that apology on paper. Will blog about all this on Wednesday

He definitely messed with the wrong child and Mum! That’s right. It should serve as an example for the other teachers. And parents as well. Some parents don’t really follow up until an apology is granted. Hopefully other parents will be quick to seek fairness for their children, after learning from your experience. I’m waiting for the updates ooo. Hugs to your son 🤗😊🙌🏾.

That’s very evil and absolutely not a way to correct. Please confront the perpetrator, not violently though.
