Parents should not see their childrens education as a burden - PM

This was stressed by Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama while opening the new dining hall and staff quarters at Vutia District School in Rewa.

Bainimarama said as a parent he learnt a lot of lessons while raising his children.

He said at certain times he immediately did not know the answers to questions which his children brought back from school but that did not stop him from helping them find the right answers.

Bainimarama said he has told his children and grandchildren that if they want to learn something they should open a computer and learn and nothing should stop them.

He said parents should always provide their children with the right path when they are seeking answers.

More than 100 students will benefit from the new dining hall.
