Thank you very much for your help too.
Hello. This last term has been quite difficult. We had to do a lot of special activities, and then catch up on normal classes at the last moment. On the other hand, I finished the term with good marks. I try hard with each project, so I can reach the level the teachers think I should.
In my school we've been doing extra things such as planting trees in green spaces and participating in a competition about how to stop bullying. We had a university fair, too where I learnt about interesting courses.
We've also been taking part in the tests for INEVAL [a national system of tests to assess learning and teaching standards in Ecuador].
Little by little I'm preparing for the next stage of my life.
Thank you for helping make all this possible.

Hello. I really enjoyed this last term, There were new challenges and I made a big effort to continue learning more and more. Thanks to your support I can go forward with my studies and attain my goals. Thank you very much!
Hello. I'll soon be 14 years old. This term has been good, but I didn't do as well as I hoped. I know that I can improve in lots of subjects and I will try to do the very best I can in the coming months.
Hello. This last term has been very good for me and I managed to get good marks. Thank you for supporting me.
Hello. This year has been very special for me. I have lots of interesting fellow students and I've learnt a lot by working with them in groups on complicated tasks. We've managed to complete them to the satisfaction of the teachers. Every day is a challenge and an experience for learning more but I feel confident to overcome the difficulties. I am very grateful to God, to my mother for her patience, and to the Condor Trust and the School Fund for their support and faith in me.
This is my final year at secondary school. I will soon finish a stage in my life which has been full of events, definitely more good ones than bad ones. They've taught me to be more disciplined. Recently the teachers have begun to prepare us for the next stage in life, choosing what to do next. Thanks to your help and the Condor Trust, I've been able to afford the extra costs that this preparation sometimes involves - buying materials for manual work etc - and I am really grateful to everyone for their support and for making all this possible.
So far this year is going well. I've had a few difficulties in maths, but in the other subjects my average marks are good. I've learnt lots of new things, and am really trying to improve my maths as well. The teachers put us in groups so we can learn about subjects more in depth and ask us to do research and then homework. I've been doing all of this, and my marks have been improving. Thank you!

Congratulations, Christine, on your success so far. I'm sure you will continue with excellent grades. Libraries are among my favourite places, both school and public libraries. It's great that you have access to the Kenya Connect Library. Enjoy your long holiday, Wayne
Hi Christine, thank you for your update. Well done! I was very interested that in Kenya the use of plastic bags is prohibited. A great idea. Saves seeing the multitude of plastic in the bushes and on roadside. I wonder why other countries have not done that, especially those that pride themselves on environment. I use a plaited carrier bag from Kenya with string handles. Very useful and hardwearing. all best wishes, Henry
Hello donors,

I have nothing much to say but just thank you donors for support of education fees towards my education. My Almighty God bless you all.

I have been working hard to improve my academic performance, especially in English and history. I also joined the school’s soccer team, which has taught me discipline and perseverance. I truly appreciate your generosity in making my education possible.
I have made great progress in school this year, especially in English and social studies. I also joined the school’s cultural club, where I have learned more about different traditions. I truly appreciate your kindness and support.
This year, I have worked hard to improve in English and literature, and I have been enjoying writing essays. I have also participated in the school’s environmental club, where we focus on keeping our surroundings clean. Your support has made all of this possible—thank you!
This year, I pushed myself to improve in sports, and I successfully joined the school athletics team. Running has taught me perseverance, just like my studies in mathematics. Thank you for making my dreams possible!
