About

Grace is the third born in a family of four. Her mother abandoned her with her aged father and went with her three siblings. Her father has been supporting her through doing casual jobs but his old age and ailment has made it difficult for him to provide for the family. Grace has been receiving support from her teachers who have gone the extra mile to cater for her needs and school levies. Every evening Grace has to cook for the family and do the house chores. Her only time to study was late at night. Despite all those obstacles, Grace performed exemplary. She aspires to be a journalist in future and she believes in striving to be self-reliant. Grace likes reading storybooks.

Hi friends,
Hope you are fine. We have come home for our mid-term break of four days. Although short, I will use it to prepare for my national exam. I will assist my parents with home chores . In school ,we had music festivals and our school won several songs . There were also ballgames and unfortunately our school football team was defeated and became position two.
I really thank you for your support towards my education. I pray that God showers his blessings upon you. When we resume back on Monday, I will continue working hard and smart. Our teachers are always determined to give us the best so that we can get good results at end of the four years. I promise that I will not let you down.
I wish you a nice time

Grace,
Thank you for the update! Wishing you all the best on a good term. I am looking forward to hearing about it.
How is the weather in Kenya? We just had the first day of the fall season here and the weather is just starting to get a little cooler.
Take care and thank you again for the update!

    Matata

    Kenya

    Matata is a daring young boy who believes that success is often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable. He is the last born in a family of four. His parents are unemployed and largely depend on subsistence farming, which has been negatively affected by frequent severe droughts. Most of the rural roads in his village are very impassable and this has pushed him towards achieving his dream of becoming an engineer. Since Matata was a young boy, he has always liked playing football not only at home but also in school and he was the goalkeeper for his school team.
