Hello Donors,
I am doing well and I hope that you are doing well too. Academic life at school was nice and generally, life at school was really nice. We have covered the last half of the term and it was nice. On the closing day, the school held the annual prize giving day for the awarding of the last year`s KCSE candidates who had performed very well in their exam.
In the beginning of this August holiday, we went for a Geography trip to the Rift valley. We had great fun during the trip and we really learned a lot. The activities that we did during the trip were really fun though some of them such as hiking on mountains were tiresome. That was the best trip that I have ever had and I will really long for it.
Right now, summer has began and the cold season of July is over. We closed school on 31st July and we will be going back to school on 26th August.
Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to you for your continued support of contributing towards my school fees payment. May the Almighty shower His blessings upon you. Goodbye!

Hello Sharon,
Its my great pleasure to write back to you. I am doing well and I hope that you are doing well too. We are now back home for the August holiday. The last half of the term was nice and generally,life at school was nice. I did not participate in the STEM competitions or the drama club because I am not a member of the of the two but of the Wildlife club. The book that you are reading seems to be really interesting. I also like reading books for pleasure so as to avoid getting bored.
I promise that I will be borrowing a book from the Kenya Connect library and read it every day during this holiday.
The career fair was scheduled to happen today at Kenya connect and so far we have learnt about the different careers, the subjects needed for the different careers and that your destiny is not determined by your background. I am really inspired by the speakers and I am grateful to Kenya Connect for organising this.
Goodbye and take care too!

Hello donors,

I am back from school for a holiday of 3 weeks after terminating the second term of 2025 school calendar.
I am quite grateful for your endured support all through my high school journey. Since the beginning of this year you have supported me and I`m really thankful for that.
The second term was a success to our school. We took part in different activities both in curricular and co-curricular and the results of both performances were good. In games we competed to the Regionals in both soccer and basketball and we are grateful for that. In studies I am really trying my best to improve since it is my main hope in the future. Currently am trying my best in preparation for the national examination in November come this year.
I really appreciate your continued support for all through this year. May our Great and Mighty God bless you abundantly.
May you have the best of this summer holiday.
Goodbye

Hello donors,
How are you doing? I hope you are doing well and that is my great pleasure. On my side I am academically doing well and also personally good.

I am hereby writing to inform you that we have just closed the school for about three weeks and resume on 26th August, 2025. I am proud to inform you that this is my last holiday in secondary school and I am really utilising it well to be of benefit in my academics.

I am visiting The Kenya Connect Library to get revision materials from there. I am also working hard as I look forward to my Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (K.C.S.E) exam which will enable me to proceed to the next level of education.

May Almighty God bless you all for the support of school fees that that you give towards my education.

Hello Wayne,
How are you doing there? I hope you are doing well and thus my pleasure. It is good to hear that you like visiting library as I do and thus really great.

Thanks for the good wishes and I promise that I will do my best .

Bye.

Hi donors, I hope you are fine and on my side I am fine.I take this opportunity to thank you for your support that you have offered to me. This has made me to read with no worries of being sent home for school fees.This is also helping me improve my grades.We have been given a holiday of three weeks and I will be helping my
parents at home.
I am happy because during this holiday, i will have enough time to stay with my siblings and my parents and i also attend library and continue revising so as to improve my performance.
Pass my greetings to your families and have a nice time. May you be blessed beyond boundaries.
Good bye!

Hello Henry,
How are you doing there? Thank you for reaching out. It is true that in my country we no longer use the plastic bags.

Through organic chemistry, we learn that plastic bags are made from polyethylene, a process known as polymerisation. We know that plastic bags are non-biodegradable thus causing pollution to the environment.

This pollution to the surrounding has a lot of effects to the living things. Plastic waste was allover and that is why Our government went ahead and banned the use of plastic bags in Kenya. Through this, our country now looks clean and conducive for someone to live.

Thanks Henry for the good comments about my country and you are most welcomed to Kenya to come and enjoy the conducive environment.

Bye

Dear Syongwa - what a great surprise to hear from you this morning! I am happy to hear that you are studying to become a teacher. My mother, father, brother, and I have all spent time teaching (my dad taught at Vanderbilt University for 34 years; my brother teaches math at Harpeth Hall School, in his 38th year!).
I hope you enjoy your field of study and that you are learning a lot. You have chosen two very interesting topics -- Biology is fascinating; Physical Education means you might become a coach, which would be a rewarding way to mentor and encourage young people.
I am glad to know that you exist, even if we are separated by half a world. Maybe, by some miracle, we will meet in person some day!
With love,
Melissa

Hi Melissa,

I thank you because you have made me to read without any school fees challenges. Thank you for your generosity and ensuring that I am never sent home for school fees.

Hello Emmaculate! It sounds like you've had a strong school year and it seems like your school has some exciting activities. Did you participate in the STEM competitions or the drama club?

Reading is essential to future success in all careers. Are you reading books for pleasure? I read every night. Right now I'm reading a book about a woman who owns a sheep farm in Vermont. It's really interesting and I'm learning how hard it is. She helps when they sheep give birth, in sheering their wool and overall management of the flock. It's something I knew very little about so I am learning a lot. I also like reading books that weave history with a story or a book with a mystery in it. Studies show that students who read for pleasure do better on exams and improve on critical thinking and creativity. During this break I encourage you to borrow a book from the Kenya Connect library and READ every day!

Are you going to the Kenya Connect Career Fair? I hope it's worthwhile.

It's summer in Maryland where I live. It's been very hot here. This weekend it got cooler which has been nice. Yesterday, I weeded my gardens and did some house cleaning.

Take care and keep working hard in school!

Hello Anna!

It was good to hear from you. It sounds like you had a strong term. I am very pleased to hear that you are reading. Reading for pleasure is essential to long term success and it opens your minds to so many new things. Right now I'm reading about a woman who raises sheep on a farm in Vermont in the U.S. I'm learning so much about how hard it is to run a successful sheep farm and how they sheer the sheep and care for them. It's something I knew very little about and the book opened up a new world to me. I read every day for fun on top of the reading I do for work.

Are you going to the Kenya Connect career fair? I think it will be helpful to show career opportunities.

It's summer in Maryland where I leave and very hot. I'm looking forward to cooler weather. Enjoy your school break and keep reading and writing. A journal is a great way to improve your writing and to share your thoughts.
