The year started well on January 3rd. We all reported to school as usual to go on with our learning for the term. Unfortunately on March 15th the government announced the closure of all learning institutions due to the spread of Covid 19. However, we were allowed back in school after a break of seven months. We were given the first exam after the long break but my mean grade was low. I am working hard to ensure that I attain a good grade to get a university entry.

All the best,
Faith
As it is my second year in high school. I am very glad to be in Highway academy High school. This school is well known for its performance and how it conducts itself. First, it was started in 1996 and all the students have passed their Kenya Certificate of secondary Education[KCSE]and the first student had a mean grade of A.I have learnt many subjects and the topics are different compared to form one. So, for my best subjects are Biology, Kiswahili and Agriculture. It has a conducive environment for learning. I am working hard to be a lawyer with a mean grade of A. We all work in hand with our teacher in order to archive our goals. It has a very large computer laboratory which has helped me to know how to use a computer. It has a laboratory such as Pegasus. The un wanted and enthusiasms which they talk about people`s culture in the community. I like playing netball and Soccer which has enhanced my skills. My hobbies are reading novels and singing. I always look forward in order to acquire my dreams. May the almighty God grant the management with blessings.

    I am the only child of a single mother. She works as a casual laborer and this helps in putting food on our table. Secondary education in Kenya is very expensive and this would require extra source of income which is not available at the moment. We live in the slums of Kibera. This is the largest slum in Kenya and poverty rate is very high. I work hard in school with one ultimate goal, to break the cycle of poverty. They say education is the best way and I believe in this philosophy.

    Ahmed Daud Osman is a 15 year old from Hargeisa, Somaliland. He was raised in the Hargeisa Orphanage, and enrolled at Abaarso School of Science and Technology two years ago. He is now entering the ninth grade and is excited to begin a new year. Ahmed’s favorite subjects are math and science. In the future, he wants to be a professor. “Somaliland has many universities, but the education is not good. I want to teach the adults,” he says. Ahmed is not only compassionate, but also deeply introspective. When asked what is the most important lesson he’s learned at Abaarso, he took a moment to reply. “I learned how to be patient when you meet challenges.”

    I am from a nuclear family with poor economic status. We depend on a small plot of farm. Paying for my school needs is difficult. At the beginning of the first term of my school, I hoped to do better in my class and now I am. I worked with carpenters during the break in order to pay school requirements. It was difficult to keep reviewing in mind what we learned for the whole term. My father did not go to secondary school and he doesn't understand the value of education. My dream is to be an engineer I can reach this by learning good skills.
