Dear TSF sponsors,

This is Tunu, the Communications Manager at Orkeeswa School.

I hope that you are well and keeping safe as the world slowly attempts to go back to normal. 

At Orkeeswa School, our students are doing well with their academics and extracurricular activities as they prepare to finish their first term, in June.

Al-Mukhsin is now in 9th grade, after completing last year’s National Examinations and passing with flying colors. The class had a 100% pass rate on their National Exams and we are very proud of them! As a 9th grader, Al-Mukhsin now has the opportunity to focus on specific classes, Art or Science, that set him up for his future ambitions. We had a chat with him and thought you would like to hear what he has to say. 

"In my 8th Grade National Exams I got division one (A+ average). I was happy for putting in the hard work and what I achieved. There is definitely room for improvement and better results when I get to 10th Grade. I intend to have to do a lot better than I did now."

We also spoke to Al-Mukhsin about his career plans and this is what he shared;

"After I complete my studies ,I want to become a pharmacist. This is because I want to help people in my society with medicines for different diseases but also because there are no enough pharmacies in our community."

Thank you for your continued support of Al-Mukhsin’s education and for being part of the journey in realizing his potential and goals. I look forward to keeping you updated on Al-Mukhsin’s progress and accomplishments this year.

With Gratitude,
Tunu and Orkeeswa School

    It was 2009 when I started standard 1. I was very happy to start primary level. When my mother died, it was really painful to me. It is a gap which will never be filled in my heart. After the funeral, I continued my studies. I am thankful I completed the term and passed the exam to standard 2. When I was in class 2, my father was my hope but after my mother's death, he changed and did not take care of me. Instead I was raised by my relatives. In 2010, my father died too and I have lived with my grandmother ever since. I was my parents' only child. Because of these challenges, I have learned that education is the best of all worldly things, better than money which gets used up. Education is the best heritage. I will never give up the chance for education. I really appreciate being selected as a scholarship beneficiary of The School Fund. I will work hard, very hard, to achieve my dream and help less fortunate people

    My dream is to become an accountant and I will get there by studying hard. The moment that I felt proud of myself is when I learned that I passed the Standard 7 National Exams. The happiest moment in my life is when I was selected by the Ebenezer Seminary for my secondary school education. The most difficult experience I had is the death of my my best friend. He died of malaria. Malaria is a disease that can be treated. My friend could be alive if he got proper medical treatment. I learn from his death that we need to help our poor friends with their basic needs. I plan to help the orphans to make sure they can reach their dreams as I will. I will also contribute some of my salary to help the disabled people after my dream comes true.

    Carmen is one of our most dedicated students. She attends all of our events and meetings, and is eager to begin her studies. After graduating high school, she worked as a waitress in Puka Rumi, one of the best restaurants in town. Here, under the mentorship of renowned chef Alejo, she fell in love with the art of cooking and hopes to someday open her own restaurant. In her spare time, she is an athlete. Her favourite sport is volleyball, and she was the only female to compete in last year's Ollantaytambo weightlifting competition! She comes from a humble campesino (rural indigenous) family. Since her father passed away 16 years ago, she and her nine siblings have since been raised by her single mother.
