Today is Human Rights Day, a day celebrated annually across the world on 10 December. For this landmark the date was not chosen at random but to honor the United Nations General Assembly's adoption and proclamation, on 10 December 1948, of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), the first global enunciation of human rights.
As for Literature, Emily Dickinson, an American poet, was also born on this day in 1830 but, in spite of such relevant events in different fields and around the world, this is also a date to remember for my myself and, above all, for my 6 phenomenal women who successfully completed their EFA course. Indeed, it marks the end of these longgggggggggggggg and very hardworkingggggggggggggg two years for my AE 3 ladies: ALICE, ANA, ISABEL, FÁTIMA, M. CONCEIÇÃO and OLINDA are to be congratulated for having finished their training as TÉCNICAS DE ACÇÃO EDUCATIVA. It was a pleasure to have worked with such a committed and dedicated group; it was the smallest class but, truth must be said, the most hardworking and generous group. It was a privilege to be in charge of such a class and I'm really proud of all of them!
Congratulations and all the best, ladies :)
Some final thoughts...I wouldn't like to finish this post though without a thank you word to all my colleagues and member of the school board who took the time to join us and celebrate this date - some even had to travel long distances, so: many thanks to all!!!
