I would like to celebrate a significant milestone in our department: the successful travel training of our very first student! This achievement is a testament to the transport brokering team's hard work, dedication, and collaborative spirit. A special thanks goes to Shamimur Mayub and Hamza Abdul for leading and developing this project.
The enthusiasm with which the team engaged with our students, patiently guiding them through the intricacies of public transportation, has laid a solid foundation for their future independence and confidence in travel.
As we know, travel training is not just about teaching skills; it's about empowering our students to navigate their world with assurance. In our student's own words, "his next goal is to go to the cinema with his friends, and being independent without his mum made him happy".
Let us take a moment to reflect on the impact this accomplishment will have, not only on our first student but also on countless others who will benefit from the program in the future. This is just the beginning, and I eagerly anticipate how this initiative will grow and flourish, thanks to the transport brokering team's efforts. Together, we are making a positive difference in their lives.
