Most students associate education centres with piles of homework, and may never think of it as a place to go to when they’re in need.
Learning Journey Education Centre, however, is challenging that stereotype by caring for more than just their students’ grades.
In light of the Covid-19 outbreak and the difficulty of purchasing disinfectant and cleaning products, this tuition centre is giving their students hand sanitiser for free.
According to a representative of the education centre, the motivation behind the initiative was mainly to teach their students a lesson on humanity and sharing.
With “retailers trying to rip Singaporeans off when it comes to masks and hand sanitisers”, some students were understandably taken aback by the kind gesture.
The centre also shared some of their young students’ responses.
Some student couldn’t believe that the hand sanitisers were being gifted to them. They asked, bewildered,
Is this for free?
Another told their tutor that they would “cherish the bottle”, exclaiming,
It’s so precious now!
The centre also hopes that students will share the bottles of sanitiser with their friends, just as it’s been shared with them.
We think this is a wonderful initiative, and applaud folks over at the centre for going the extra mile for their students’ well-being.
We hope the students will intended lesson will bear fruit and students will be as generous with their hand sanitiser as their tuition centre was to them.
