Kathan Dudhela - Ireland primary schools
/Huge thanks to Kathan Dudhela for a wonderful visit to primary schools in Ireland today. The schools were so impressed and inspired!
“He was absolutely AMAZING! He gave us a really interesting presentation and then he answered all our many questions with kidness and thoughtfulness. He is inspiring! We asked about storm clouds, about travel sickness as a pilot, about what happens if there are not enough seats on planes for all the passengers, about the best place that Kathan has flown to, about Hong Kong airport, about pilots wearing headphones on flights, about scary flights and landings that Kathan has had, about how pilots manage to eat and sleep on planes, about the uniform, about the many countries that Kathan could visit in one day, about whether Kathan is scared of heights or not, about Kathan’s favourite plane and about Kathan’s longest flight ever. Kathan answered all these questions (and many more). We were fascinated.
What a wonderful visit! Teachers and students alike are singing your praises Kathan. One girl in my class has even revised her future plans and wrote "I just really wanted to be a teacher when I grow up but when I heard your amazing story I said to myself that when I grow up I am not going to be a teacher, I am going to be a pilot and not going to change that I have it on my bucket list now". (she is 7) High praise indeed!
Many thanks to Kathan and to Kanchana from The Aviatrix Project for organising this visit for us.”
