This year, I focused on excelling in physics and chemistry. I hope to become an engineer one day, and my teachers have been very encouraging. I also joined the school’s environmental club, where we promote tree planting. Thank you for believing in me!
Hello, I’m Richard Juma, a Grade 9 student at Wema Children's Centre. I am incredibly thankful for your support, which allows me to attend school and pursue my dreams.
