A tea-time gathering of parents to keep tea-garden children in school

Tea-garden parents work all day. Many children start working when older or leave school under pressure to marry. Parents want their children to study but do not know how to help. Once a month after work, hold a short gathering of parents in an open spot. The teacher tells who has been absent and where the trouble lies; parents share their own difficulties. For a child who has not returned to class, two neighbours visit the home and talk as friends. You need a place, tea and one person known to all in the garden area. Begin patiently.
