About

I faced difficulties for my school expenses like school uniforms, food and other equipment. Due to lack of these important needs, I was sent back home for some time. This affected my studies. I have a dream of being an engineer when I complete my education. This can be attained through studying hard, listening to my teachers and cooperating with my classmates. I am proud of being a form 1 student at Wel Wel secondary school because there are some who didn’t pass their standard 7 examination. The most interesting moment to me was when I passed the national examination. I am still doing well in my form 1 studies. I hope that four years from now I will be in A-level.

Hi Students!

I just read all the journal entries I have received since October. Such wonderful letters! I am so impressed by how mature and articulate you have become. I’m realizing that I have now been reading some of your journals for 5 years. When I look at your photos, I don’t recognize the child I first knew. You are teenagers now.
I especially love the stories that some of you told in your journals. Moral tales, I call them.

So congratulations for working so hard. I’m hoping you will achieve your goals, go to a university if you want, and become productive members of your community, and able to help others as you have been helped.

I am enjoying retirement. My age of 76 is bringing on a bit of health problems, like arthritis, but I keep active physically and don’t let it stop me from doing what I love to do.

I read a lot. I travel. I go to jazz concerts in San Francisco. I would love to return to Kenya and Tanzania for a visit. I’d love to visit your school. Maybe it will happen. Who knows?

So keep up the great efforts. I know it can’t be easy, but this is such a wonderful opportunity.

Very fondly, Susan

The application of science and technology in agriculture has contributed as follows:
1.The cultivated areas were widened due to use of iron tools.
2.Trade were made possible due to the availability of trade items made of iron e.g. Spears, arrows, axe and swords.
3.Food storage skills made possible the availabilty of food. For example the use of smoke in storing grains and meat among the Fipa help in the presence of food.
4.Irrigation made land to be productive throughout the year e.g. Among the Egyptians irrigation was used to grow crops along the Nile Valley system.
5.Transport facilities such as the use of cannoes, horses and camels help in the development of trade among the African societies.

    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.
