I've very nearly graduated from high school. I can't say that it has been easy. I missed two months of school earlier this year so I had to do lots of extra work to catch up, but I made an effort and did this - and in one month's time I'll graduate! Thanks to everyone for all your support.

Hello. I’m in my final year of secondary school and am happy because I’m going to graduate this year. I think education is very important because it helps us get a good job and salary and helps us improve our lives economically. I really think this has been one of the most difficult years for students. We’ve had to adapt to the new way, which amounts to self-education, and which isn’t as demanding as face-to-face lessons. Thank you for your support.

    Emmaculate Mueni

    Kenya

    Emmaculate is the last born in a family of three; one sister and one brother. Her parents rely on subsistence farming for livelihood, which has been greatly affected by the changing climate. While in primary school, Emmaculate spent most of the time at home while the other students were at school. This was because of lack of finances to cater for some of the requirements at school. This did not stop her but instead propelled her towards achieving her dream of becoming a cardiologist in order to save lives. Her role model is Barack Obama and she likes his phrase of ‘Yes we can’. Moreover, she likes reading story books during her free time.
