Hello. I've learnt a lot of new things over the past 6 months. We've also begun to work in groups and participate in different activities. I've enjoyed this and done well, I think. I send my thanks to everyone who is helping me.

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.

    Matata

    Kenya

    Matata is a daring young boy who believes that success is often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable. He is the last born in a family of four. His parents are unemployed and largely depend on subsistence farming, which has been negatively affected by frequent severe droughts. Most of the rural roads in his village are very impassable and this has pushed him towards achieving his dream of becoming an engineer. Since Matata was a young boy, he has always liked playing football not only at home but also in school and he was the goalkeeper for his school team.
