There they all are in their uniform, diverse in shape, size, features and ethnicity though they are, they are all in a uniform and are expected to abide by the principles of the school.

As a result it’s put pressure on the rest of my family, thank God, though, they have been very resilient through it all and one aspect of the intensity is complete.
