    Man the way I would have killed to have gone to school in Ghana as a kid 😭. These memories will be a goldmine for them

      I went to school in Ghana and believe me when I say 'you learn' you learn! I went to 2 private schools and because certain subjects such as Ghana History were not what I knew I had to drop down a year...wasn't happy but it was the best thing. The teachers are very strict and are not there to mess around. Don't know how things are now but in my time it was all learn and no play lol.

      Those people were not genuine if you watch their videos you will understand they dont consider themselves are Africans... they were Black Europeans. Another thing I have observed is some people feel if they move to Ghana their channel will improve. Perhaps that was their game plan. Because the sort of properties they were renting were not for the long haul.. ie not sustainable.

    Our school in the US does not have recess either. The kids must eat lunch in their classrooms and get about 15 minutes outside for a "brain break" but not a normal recess. These restrictions are in place because of Covid and is said to limit the amount of exposure to other kids not in their class.

      Sometimes we're quick to criticize or look down on actions and deeds of Africans. For all you know their decision is well thought of. Hence the reason why they are not wallowing in the virus like here in the US or Canada. My sister in law told me they take 2 breaks for lunch and snack, that usually last half an hour to 45 minutes. Then back to class. All other activities are on hold for now because of the pandemic. Isn't that reasonable? The kids are there to learn.

    Loving your videos Rachelle, maybe Jordan could do some football after school or karate something to get his energy out if he’s not having recess at the moment. Also don’t know if you’ve done a video on this but you actually seem like one of the expats who has managed to make it work coming to Ghana assimilating and even got their kids into school. So what makes you different how did you find your apartment it seems to be in a really nice area what area is it obviously you don’t have to tell us the street or block even school what made you choose the school you have chosen for your children is it in International school? Or just a local Day school? What is your monthly budget for a family of three do you find it cheap and easy to make ends meet in Accra because we are always hearing that it’s very expensive to live there? What led you to the area you finally chose to live in opposed to the famous East Legon where a lot of expats flock too.

    The "no recess" thing isn't for all Ghanaian schools... Many schools have recess while observing the COVID protocols. It's usually a School's choice to do that or not... However, children have the right to play and go outside no matter what. So, I think your kids' school should let them... Regardless, I'm glad they're liking it in school... Much love
