I would like to take this chance to greet you and express my sincere gratitude to you. How have you been? It is my hope that you are as good as I am. The term has being long since we were undertaking the final examination in secondary level but to my enjoyment I have made it through.

Although the year had a lot of challenges including the floods and teachers' strike, I did my level best to ensure that the disasters did not affect my academics. Had the adage "Determination knows no barrier" not being ratified? I therefore wish to take this chance in a special way to thank you for your never ending support in paying my school fees throughout the four years.

It is in deed a testimony that since I joined form one in Masinga school till the end of form four, I have never being send home for school fees. This is all through your financial support. Thank you so much for keeping me in school. May you be blessed. Good bye.

Estimados señores donantes,

Reciban un cordial saludo y mi más sincero agradecimiento por todo el apoyo que me han brindado. Gracias a su generosidad, he podido seguir adelante con mis estudios y avanzar hacia el cumplimiento de mis sueños.

Mi nombre es Nohemí Tintaya Maza, soy estudiante de Guía Oficial de Turismo en el Instituto CENFOTUR de Cusco, y me complace mucho compartir con ustedes que he terminado mi sexto semestre. Este logro es un paso muy importante en mi camino académico, y me siento muy emocionada porque mi graduación está cada vez más cerca. Todo esto ha sido posible gracias al apoyo constante del programa Mosqoy, que me ha dado la oportunidad de estudiar y crecer.

Actualmente, además de mis estudios, estoy tomando un curso de portugués, lo que me permitirá ampliar mis conocimientos y mejorar mis habilidades lingüísticas, algo muy valioso en mi carrera. También tengo la suerte de estar trabajando en una agencia de viajes, donde puedo interactuar con turistas y poner en práctica lo que he aprendido sobre mi carrera. Este trabajo me está permitiendo adquirir experiencia y conocimiento de primera mano sobre la industria turística, lo cual es fundamental para mi desarrollo profesional.

Poco a poco, mis sueños se están haciendo realidad, y todo lo que he logrado hasta ahora me llena de gratitud y esperanza. Cada paso que doy me acerca más a mi meta de convertirme en una profesional. Sin el apoyo del programa Mosqoy y de ustedes, los donantes, no habría sido posible llegar tan lejos, y por eso estoy profundamente agradecida.

Gracias de corazón por su apoyo. Sé que, con su ayuda, continuaré alcanzando nuevas metas y que mis sueños, aunque grandes, están cada vez más cerca de cumplirse.

Atentamente,

Nohemí Tintaya Maza

Dear Donors,

I send you a warm greeting and my most sincere gratitude for all the support you have provided me. Thanks to your generosity, I have been able to continue with my studies and move closer to achieving my dreams.

My name is Nohemí Tintaya Maza, and I am a Tourist Guide student at the CENFOTUR Institute in Cusco. I am very pleased to share with you that I have completed my sixth semester. This achievement is a very important step in my academic journey, and I feel very excited because my graduation is getting closer. All of this has been possible thanks to the constant support of the Mosqoy program, which has given me the opportunity to study and grow.
Currently, in addition to my studies, I am taking a Portuguese course, which will allow me to expand my knowledge and improve my language skills, something very valuable in my career. I am also fortunate to be working in a travel agency, where I can interact with tourists and put into practice what I have learned about my career. This work is allowing me to gain firsthand experience and knowledge of the tourism industry, which is fundamental to my professional development.

Little by little, my dreams are becoming a reality, and everything I have achieved so far fills me with gratitude and hope. Each step I take brings me closer to my goal of becoming a professional. Without the support of the Mosqoy program and you, the donors, it would not have been possible to come this far, and for that, I am deeply grateful.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support. I know that, with your help, I will continue to achieve new goals and that my dreams, although big, are getting closer to being fulfilled.

Sincerely,

Nohemí Tintaya Maza

Hello Sharon,
I am very glad to read the nice reply note that you wrote. The cultural day and the talent show were very wonderful. In the event I participated in a traditional dance together with my classmates where we sang a traditional song titled `GALAMASHAKA` a Giriama song. My favourite act that I watched during the event was modern dances. I really enjoyed it since listening to modern songs keep me entertained especially when I am bored.
When we came home from school, the weather was sunny and everywhere was dry and also the rivers had gone dry. It looked bad because I like an environment which is green. But for now, the long rains have began and I am glad that the environment will now regain its beauty of being green.
Goodbye and take care!!

My experience in the first year of high school was rather difficult, mainly because I changed from primary to secondary school - the way the teachers and the school work were different and seemed strange to me at first. I gradually got to know the teachers though and learnt how the school works academically, so by the end of the year everything was much better.
I'm grateful to my parents and also to everyone at The Condor Trust and The School Fund, who are a great help in my academic studies. I think I will do even better this year. Thank you!
I am now in my second year at high school. Last term was quite difficult but I managed to overcome the problems. I have been doing well, but I think I could do much better, and I hope I will improve a lot this year. Thank you to The Condor Trust and to The School Fund for allowing me to study and to always try to do better.
I am very happy The School Fund is helping me. I like school and want to do well. I'm learning a lot of new things and really enjoying it. Thank you!
The new school year has begun well for me, although we are having a lot of problems with electricity cuts and, a few weeks ago, bad fires near Quito which made it difficult to breathe. Thank you to The School Fund for your help. I am very grateful for this chance.
Hello. Thank you to The Condor Trust and to The School Fund for supporting me. School is not so easy for me, but I am trying hard. Thank you.
I've started my final year at high school! I'm trying to do a lot of studying as I really want to go to university, but it's not easy to get a place. Thank you very much for your help. I am very grateful for your support.
I am very grateful to The School Fund and to all the people who are helping me with my education. I hope this year will be a successful one for me. I will try hard to make it a year when I make a lot of progress. Thank you!
I want to say thank you to The School Fund and to everyone who is helping me. Car mechanics is really interesting to study and I'm very pleased I can go on doing this. Thank you!
Thank you to The School Fund. I am now starting my final three years in high school, so school and homework are becoming more serious. I am very happy about this and am enjoying the new school year very much. Again, thank you for this opportunity.
Hello and thank you! In September I started my last year at high school. I'm still considering what to do next. There are lots of interesting courses but I want to choose the right one. Thank you very much for your donations which have allowed me to get this far.
I'm pleased that I've made it to the final year of high school, despite all the problems of studying. Thank you to The School Fund for helping me through everything!
Thank you to The School Fund for giving me the chance to continue studying. It's difficult to believe that I've now started my final year at high school. I'm trying to think what to study next but it's difficult to decide. Maybe a course in design or perhaps something more technical? Thank you very much for your support.
I think this year is going to be quite hard, as I'm now in the last three years at high school. I want to try hard and achieve good results. Thank you to everyone who is helping me. I will try to do my best.

I am writing this to inform you that we have just closed the school for long holiday break which is taking two good months and also to allow the candidates to do their final examination in secondary school. It was fine at school but we finished the curriculum year well regardless of teacher´s strike that we had during the first two weeks.

For the time being we are having the holiday, I am taking studies from home where I get revision materials from The Kenya Connect Library to improve my performance. During my free time, I visit The Kenya Connect Library to read novels especially the ones for ´Harry potter´ to build my grammar.

I thank you all donors for your contribution towards my education fee. May Almighty God bless you for your support and grant you good health and long life.
Hello friends! I am very excited to write this journal.Being my first time to write to you I would like to share my experience in secondary school with you.I find that life in secondary school is more fun than in primary school. I have made new friends who have been of great help to me in my studies. I have already adapted to the new school life and teachers. They are nice and they teach us well to understand.
I have joined the netball club and I hope that I will participate in next year`s competitions. I am excited that the long holiday is here. I will be occupied with books and assignments.
Life at home is so good and I am having best moments with my mother and my sister. We are waiting for rains to come while getting ready for the planting season.
My gratitude goes out to you for ensuring that I am always in school by paying my school fees. May your cups overflow.
I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year 2025
Hello Emmaculate:

It was wonderful to hear about the end of year cultural day and talent show. It sounded wonderful! Did you do an act in the show? What was your favorite act to watch?

I was at Kenya Connect earlier this month. It's always good to see the Kenya Connect staff and visit with the children at partner schools. I even ran in the Running to Read festival. I was slow, but it was fun!

I hope you check out books from the Kenya Connect library during the school break. Reading will help you in school. I read every day for fun and I learn about people who live in different parts of the world than me or people who have different challenges. One book I recently read was about women in Japan who dive for abalone, a kind of shellfish that is food. It was fascinating to see how deep in the ocean they could go. I also liked reading Michelle Obama's books.

I am glad you had such a good school year. Have a wonderful break and keep reading!

Sharon
Hello Anna!

I am pleased that your school year went well and that you scored a B+. I hope that over the break, you borrow books from the Kenya Connect library to read. Reading on a regular basis for fun will help you improve fluency and comprehension and it brings you to so many new places!

I was in Kenya earlier this month with Kenya Connect. It was wonderful to visit some of our partner schools. I also participated in the Kenya Connect running to read festival!

Have a great break and keep reading! It's a key to success!

Hello friends and donors,
Its my hope that you are all fine and healthy.On my side ,I´m good and healthy.
In school everything thing was good though it had few challenges.
The climate in school was very cold and the sun would shine for few hours.
We used to wake up very early unlike the other terms because were preparing for a joint exam which is done by all schools in Kitui county.
Teachers on their side were very strict with rules.They would come to class very early in the morning so as to make sure that we have finished the syllabus.
Despite all, I passed and scored a B+though it was not my target.I will work harder next year so as to improve in my studies.
I would like to thank you for supporting me in my education. I am because you are. May God bless you and keep you all safe .Have a nice time.
Thank you very much.

Hello Donors,
I am doing well and hope that you are doing well too. It`s my great pleasure to write this journal to you informing you that we are now back home for a long break of about two months. The year is nearly coming to an end and I am very happy because I will be proceeding to form three next year. Academic life in school was really nice and generally life at school was the best despite the year being long and a busy one.Two days before the school closed, the school held a cultural day which was also combined with a talent show. Students showed up their talents and acted many plays representing different communities with their cultures. We really had much fun during the event and after everyone`s presentation, the winner was crowned as Miss Machakos Girls. This event made the year become the best and a memorable one. We closed school on 23rd October and we will be going back to school on 7th January.
Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to you for your great support of contributing towards my school fees payment. I really appreciate and may the Almighty shower His blessings upon you.
Goodbye!!

I am sorry to hear that there is unrest due to lack of funding. I hope this does not limit access to the classes you want to take.
What are you studying (do you have a "major" field of study)?
Thank you for writing. May God bless you in this new chapter of your life.
