Not good and should be abolish.

Abegii,

Let children do some form of Labour.😏😒

Dat's why most of our Kids/Teenagers these Days are very LAZY and empty.

They Only know how to do Tiktok videos, skits and watch porn in their phones.

Never really got the swing right for grass cutting! And always ended up getting blisters on my hand! One friend or the other always ended up doing my own portion.....either that, or i found a convenient excuse to leave the school premises at the right time!

Normal thing in Command Secondary School

bassdow:
na for those wey attend public / mushroom schools. Me gan, as I dey reach, I never for once washed toilet or sweep anything. No be wetin I pay school fees for. And yea, I do come late atimes

Okay, I hear you.

But as things are now, how are you different from us who did this during our elementary and high school days?

Let me tell you this. Some of those who attended your so called “mushroom schools “ are better academically than those who attended your overrated schools where students who can spell their name correctly get best WAEC results.

Child Labour

It's exploitative culture

Hammylawali:


It’s not child labour. It’s a normal activity in most boarding schools.

It's not normal

Omo mehn! I cut grass tire for olorunfunmi grammar school old site for lagos mainland. I dey always pray make dem pair me with OJO, the nigga get phd for clearing bush

NGWA HIGH SCHOOL OF THOSE DAYS POWERED BY DEE WOOD.
Only those who attended NHS Aba will understand

Almost all public schools do this then we hardly hv private school dose days but now private school has taking over now

Bloggers are part of the problem of manners and culture in this society. What's wrong with this? I did it when I was in school and nothing wrong with it. Why are bring it up to make it look bad?

ARMY DAY SEC SCH…that SCH! it was not funny, but it shaped me.

Ogiri oko memorial secondary school

Which of the NNSS

SeeWahala:
We cut grass in my sec school. From jss1 to ss3 in the 1990's NNSS. The commandant will even tell your own father to buy the hoe, rake and cutlass and keep for you prior to resumption day.

You must cut grass until you're about to write waec even if dem born you well dem no born ya papa well so him own cancel your own.

They will even give us plot to clear and plant on.

Then i always give excuses about my health.. Seniors go free me

Bongadu:

Poverty na bastard

Man upgrade your mentality. This has nothing to do with poverty

Ansar-Ud-Deen Primary School, Sagamu.

Makun High School, Sagamu.
We even had to cultivate and plant maize to celebrate 'láńgbé carnival'.

na so now. I used grass cutting chop pusssssssy well well for secondary school

When you cut finish with langa-langa, your hand go get blisters.

If you know the meaning of 'langa-langa', then I will know you attended my school.

Yes BOSS.....I kind of have a way of avoiding this manual labour period but I later found out that some of my colleagues always find it interesting.....like they prefer cutting grass than been the class learning

NomzyJust:


ESSO back in the day.

I see nothing wrong we it. We deh cut grass with joy. If you are fast enough to finish before others at that time, we go get enough free time to do whatsoever we like. Because that day no lecture would take place again one we have received the morning lectures. This is far back in the 90s at Ngala Primary Sch, and Ika Boys Secondary school in Delta State.
