On Tuesday Lloyd walked out in the middle of the day without a word. On Wednesday then he never came in. But yesterday he was back and arrived at 8.45! I was so happy to see him. We all apologised for having made him feel not part of the group or unable to participate. In computer skills we did C.V.s and Lloyd only finished primary school. He also seems dyslexic. I felt awful for not having noticed or accommodated his weaknesses, no wonder he bolted. Later in Life Skills he was talking and contributing in English and, if he got stuck, in Afrikaans. It was fantastic! He said on Friday he would sing Westlife, I couldn’t believe it! I told him if he sang a Westlife song I would pay him R10. I can’t believe they know Westlife here!!! So this morning when Lloyd and Granton turned up at half 8, I nearly died, I had to sit down! Lloyd was full of energy, enthusiastic to get involved and happy to be there. It was so great to see and such a change from the previous days. So after games outside (we had a fun day today) we had our talent show and Lloyd sang his song for me it was so funny! Even I sang! Never to be repeated! So it was a really great day and a wonderful start to the weekend. I’m so glad Lloyd is back, I think he is just the type of person who really needs this course and I want to do as much as possible to help him over-come his challenges. And now it's the weekned and we are all gonna relax :)
