Hello Crispus! I am so happy to hear from you. It must have been fun to have your school host the games!

Recently my family and I went to Iceland. It's a country that's an island in the northern hemisphere (between Europe and North America). While there we saw the continental divide-- one of two in the world. The other one is located in the Rift Valley in Kenya! We actually stood between the tectonic plates. We also saw a geyser--hot water spurting from he ground and the Northern lights. I've attached a few pictures including me and my husband Mike.

I am so happy to hear that you are studying hard. Use the break time to prepare for the exams. I know you will reach your dreams and be a leader in the community.

Take good care and I'll keep you in my prayers,

Sharon (Mutanu)

Hello!
It´s my hope that you are doing well.My second term has been good and I have continued to prepare myself for the final exam at the end of the year.I would also want to mention that our school hosted the secondary school ball games this year. I had an opportunity to participate in hockey but we were knocked out.However,this served as chance for me to direct my mind and energy into academics.
Putting that aside,I am really appreciative for standing with me in my academics through your generous contribution.It remains vivid in my mind that excellence in my academics is the only thing that can reciprocate your efforts that you have put to see me have a smooth academic progression.I am confident that I will achieve a good grade that I will propel me into the next level of education,pursue my dream career and become a reliable person in the society.With only one term remaining,I will work extra smart and make sure I gather as much content as possible in preparation for that ultimate exam.
Thank you so much and have a wonderful time filled with God´s blessings.

    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.
