Daily Sun (October 22 2013) - THE furious mum couldn't believe her ears when her son told her about the humiliation he had to endure at school. Her son, and other grade ones, were forced to strip and parade around naked in full view of the class. OUR TEACHER SAID WE STINK, THE LITTLE BOY TOLD HIS MOTHER!
Not only does the teacher agree this is what happened, she insists this is the way to discipline children . . . and she boasts she has done it before! The mother is also unhappy about the response from the principal.
"All he could say was that we should forgive each other and forget about the whole thing," she said. Still angry, the mother told Daily Sun: "My child goes to school to get an education, not to be humiliated!" She told Daily Sun what happened.
"I had just finished preparing my son for school when he told me this sickening story. He told me the teacher did this because she claims they come to school stinking," she said. The mother decided to go to the school - but she went to the cops first, not only to open a case but also to get the cops to go with her.
"I was trembling with anger. I felt I was going to strangle her if I went there alone. Two cops went with me," she said.
The mother of the five-year-old boy is also a member of the School Governing Board at the primary school in Protea South, Soweto.
