About

Daniel is a very determined boy. While in primary school Daniel did not have a reading lamp. He had to utilize much of his daytime by forgoing break and recess time to catch up on his studies. He was able to overcome and emerge the best in the class. Daniel believes that education is the only key to his success. He is the first-born child in a family of three. His father is a wood carver whose small earnings have been depleted by hospital bills of ailing members of his extended family.

Hello Daniel!

I am very happy that you are able to go back to school! I am sure you are happy to see your friends and teachers. I understand Form 4 is a big year! I hope the revision at the Kenya Connect LRC was helpful for you. Did you know that students who read for fun tend to score higher on exams than students who don't read? Keep borrowing books from the KC LRC to help with all your schooling.

I live in Maryland. Currently we are in the season of autumn. The leaves are starting to change colors and soon it will become cold. Our vegetable gardens have all been picked and will rest over the winter.

Work hard and keep reading. Take care!

    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.
