Question:

In the Netherlands there is a law who tells us that children from 5 to 18 years old, are required to go to school.

In other country's in the world, are children between 5 to 18 years old who have to work a lot. Because of this, they can't always go to school.

 

Do you think learning a job at this age is child labour and can you tell us why?

Question:

In Holland we have training periods during our education. That's a practical period: you go to a primary school to give lessons and you'll learn how to be a teacher. You're there a few weeks in a year.

In Uganda, do you also have training periods, or something like that? And how does it work?

And ofcourse, what do you think of it? Do you think it's an important part of your education?
