Mrs Onen Moves on

 

Margaret Onen and Stella Madzikigwa ( A Practical Handover Session)

Mrs Margaret Onen bid Maru a Pula School goodbye at the end of 2009. She served  the school for 9 years as a kind, gentle and passionate Librarian who ensured ethical Library Practice at all times. The Librarian collection left behind by Mrs Onen reflects a well balanced budget allocation as there are no signs of bias on the collection. Her skills on the Library Management System are a reflection of proffessional librarianship Apart from doing Library work Mrs Onen was active in afternoon activities such s childline, netball, aerobics and study skills.
