It has been a good year for me. I was chosen as student president of the school and then had the opportunity to be involved in some leadership training. From September I will be in the final year. It's very important to get good grades, and I'm feeling a bit nervous about it!

    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.
