Question 1
1.1 In the story "Going Away," the theme of change is handled in a sensitive and
comforting manner that is intended to help children cope with the various changes they
may encounter in their lives. Throughout the story, the different kinds of change are
identified and explored, providing children with reassurance and understanding.
One of the changes suggested in the story is the physical change of moving to a new
place. The main character, Thabo, is faced with the daunting prospect of leaving his
familiar home and community to move to a new town. This type of change can be
particularly challenging for children, as it involves saying goodbye to friends, leaving
behind familiar surroundings, and adapting to a new environment. The story addresses
this change by acknowledging Thabo's feelings of sadness and fear, and emphasizing
the importance of embracing new opportunities and experiences.
Another kind of change suggested in the story is the emotional change of feeling uncertain
and anxious about the future. Thabo experiences a range of emotions as he prepares to
leave, including worry about making new friends and fitting in at his new school. The story
addresses these emotional changes by normalizing Thabo's feelings and showing him
that it is okay to feel anxious about unknown situations. It also provides him with coping
strategies, such as talking to someone he trusts and visualizing positive outcomes.
