If you are an enthusiast of action comedy and a fan of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence like me, then the new release Bad Boys 4 (Ride or Die) will rekindle the previous Bad Boys franchise memories. At the centre of the attraction is REGGIE. A sigh of relief at last—had thought Will Smith’s slap across Chris Brown’s face could halt the production.

The DP must be the real hustler. He boarded a commercial plane to MSA. He will also be away if the punitive Finance Bill 2024 is passed. Strategy is paramount.

What we see as we watch others depends on the purity of our perception. Before we judge others, it is wise to check our state of mind and ask ourselves if we are prepared to see good rather than look for faults in the person we are about to judge.

CBC questions we must answer at home
These CBC kids! Going home this evening, one asked a question I couldn't answer well enough. I was perturbed nikaanza kutapatapa. Luckily nikaweza kuchenga somehow and in the process managed kuweka mwalimu wake in the mix (pole madam).
Like a lawyer, she cunningly asked me yes/no questions:
“Si mungu alitutengeneza sisi wote?”
Me: yes
"Si alitengeneza kila kitu duniani?”
Me: Yes
Hata Sun, animals, moon and stars? Yes
Then the bombshell,... " na nani alitengeneza Mungu???
Na shetani??? I tried answering philosophically lakini wapi. Part ya shetani najua nilipata and I capitalized on that (story ya most trusted angel).
Tusaidieni na majibu hapa for future reference juu mwalimu wake anaweza rusha ball back.

What Are Our Kids Learning?

CBC provides a more holistic and practical learning experience for students. Unlike the previous 8-4-4 system, which focused heavily on theoretical knowledge and examinations, the CBC emphasizes the development of competencies, skills, and attitudes necessary for learners to thrive in the modern world.
The primary objectives of the CBC include:
1. Holistic Development: Fostering all-rounded individuals with academic knowledge, practical skills, and positive attitudes.
2. Relevance to Life and Work: Ensuring that education is directly applicable to real-life situations and future careers.
3. Individualized Learning: Catering to the unique strengths, interests, and needs of each learner.
4. Promoting Critical Thinking: Encouraging learners to think critically, solve problems, and make informed decisions.
5. Creativity and Innovation: Inspiring creativity and innovation through hands-on activities and project-based learning.
6. Citizenship and National Values: Instilling national values, patriotism, and a sense of civic duty.

Differentiating England, the UK, and Great Britain

I’ve always struggled with this confusion, and I bet it also affects you. The CBC products expect you to know and it would be a big letdown if you don’t.
England is a country in Europe with London as its capital.
Great Britain comprises three countries collectively forming one country with London as the capital. The three are:
1. Scotland
2. England
3. Wales.
You can abbreviate it as SEW.
When you add Northern Ireland to the three, they become the United Kingdom (Four Nations) with London as the capital.
Thus, the United Kingdom comprises:
1. England
2. Scotland
3. Wales
4. Northern Ireland
You can abbreviate them as SEWN or NEWS.
Collectively, they are considered one country, and when this is the case, London is its capital. Nonetheless, the four nations each have their respective capitals, that you know.
When not busy, I like saving everyone else’ time. I am the CBC parents' teacher.
