My name is Dennis Wanjala one of the Form Four students of Highway Academy. I would first like to thank the Almighty God and the WEMA Community for the support you have granted me thus far.

Since I joined Form One in the year Twenty Fifteen, I have witnessed many positive changes in my education. Coming from a Government Owned Primary School that had few or no books and very few teachers serving many students, Highway was a game changer in my educational journey. I have access to enough books in the school library and more material in the school Computer Lab in which I have acquired many skills including; typing and printing.

I read storybooks in the library to build on my command of the English language and I hope that one day I will stunt people with how I speak English.

Growing up, I would like to be a University Lecturer. It’s all tanks to you since I would never have reached this point without you.

    Fiona

    Kenya

    Fiona is the last born in a family of three. She lives with both her parents who are casual labourers. Her mother had a major surgery on her left hand in 2020. This made them sell part of their property to take care of the medical bills and thus reducing their income significantly and again making it very difficult for them to take care of the education bills of their children. Fiona drew her inspiration to pursue success from her Math teacher and she aspires to be a civil engineer to make contributions in the development of infrastructure in her village.
