Bahrain – No Homework

Children, but more so many parents, will be breathing a little easier when their children return home from school.  Why and where, you may ask?  In Bahrain, the Minister of Education, Majid Al Nuaimi, has cancelled homework assignments from school.  Wow!  I know that some teachers around the world may choose not to give their students homework but to have this directive from the top… wow!
One mother is quoted as saying, “It’s not easy at all, and the situation is compounded when she comes home to do assignments that I cannot comprehend.”

God's Care

In Paris, an 18-month-old baby boy, who was left in an apartment with his three-year-old sister while their parents went for a stroll, fell out of a window. The baby fell from the eighth floor. He fell through the window, bounced off the awning of a restaurant and landed in the arms of someone who was walking by. The baby did not seem to have suffered any physical injury. Wow!  Thank the Lord.

Maldives - Rejoins

In 1982, Maldives joined the Commonwealth. However, in 2016, the country left it, which was in response to the Commonwealth’s suspension warning. The Maldives’ government claimed that the Commonwealth “sought to become an active participant in the Maldives' domestic political discourse, which is contrary to the principles of the charters of the UN and the Commonwealth.” Then, on the 1st February 2020, under the Ibrahim Mohamed Solih government, the country rejoined the Commonwealth.  Note: The Commonwealth https://thecommonwealth.org/our-member-countries/maldives
