Farewell Koro

I was finally leaving Koro after 4 years 10 months and 10 years 10 months with I.E.A. This was official as of 15th October, 2010.

There was inquisitiveness amongst students that they wanted to know why I was leaving.They even made an appointment to visit me one afternoon in my office and asked me;

What do you find most difficult to leave Korobosea? What were your most treasurable moments?
There was one I remember very well as I was doing my usual walk-about around the school grounds when a very cheerless face confronted me and asked " Ms Paine..Why are you leaving us???..........

There is always a season for everything, a season to begin a new life somewhere, a season to renew your contracts, a season to celebrate life....For me it is a season to begin a new life somewhere; a future that is unknown but there is hope for something good to happen :)
My working life at Koro has been the most rewarding experience which I am very grateful for .The people I have worked with; the children, staff and parents of Koro. have been extraordinarily wonderful..As I depart I have every belief that Koro will continue to be the best with the best people who tirelessly and wholeheartedly commit their efforts in ensuring that the quality of education is the best amongst the schools in P.N.G.

Thank you Koro and farewell!
