I've just started my last year at secondary school and I feel happy, nervous and sad. Happy because I can keep working towards my goals, nervous because I know I have to make even more of an effort, and sad because this will be the last year with my friends. My aim is to work very hard this year so I can graduate with good marks. I am very grateful to you for making it possible for me to continue with my studies.
Hello. This year has been full of new things and experiences different from those I was used to, but I got through it and finished the year with excellent marks and with lots of new knowledge. I worked every day to educate myself via videos. Now I've started my penultimate year at school and I'm enjoying what I'm learning. I am sad though that we are still not back at school full-time. I miss my classmates and teachers, and above all the great teaching and laughter that we shared. I hope all these problems are over very soon.

    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.
