The School Fund

About

When asked what she aspires to be, Ram Lali after thinking for a while says she wants to learn tailoring. Her aspiration is not to be a doctor or an engineer or a teacher. Her dream is very simple - to start a tailoring shop of her own. If she learns tailoring she says other people will come to her for tailoring needs, thus helping her earn money to support her family. Ram Lali is a very shy and soft spoken girl. Her father digs canals and her mother is a home maker. She is the second eldest amongst the four children. Her sister, who is the eldest, is married and her other siblings attend a Government run school. Having discontinued her education due to financial reasons, Ram Lali now regularly attends here classes. She has a love for badminton and Sanskrit. She enjoys coming to school as she gets to learn new things and can meet her friends. With a very simple dream to achieve, no one really knows what the future holds for Ram Lali. But she is happy, happy that her parents registered her for the Swabhiman program - an opportunity for her to continue her education.

Ram Lali,

I hope you'll continue to pursue your dreams. I bet you'll be an awesome tailor! Are you really good at badminton? I think it's a fun game, but I'm not very good at it. Maybe you should send me some pointers :-)

Ram Lali is determined to complete her higher education. Her opinion towards education is to light a candle to curse the darkness. She thought that education is only one way to upgrade life. She doesn�t have big dream apart from complete her education.

Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.

Notable experiences in my life are, first, passing my standard seven examination and, second, entering secondary school. My most difficult experience was when I started to learn English. I have learned that if you want to do something, you have to work hard. I felt proud was when I entered secondary school. My most memorable and happiest thoughts are from when I celebrated at my birthday party. My dream is to be an electrical engineer. I will get there through studying hard and doing well in science subjects. If I had the power to change my country, I would like to improve the electricity supply especially in rural areas because there are shortages of electric power.

The experience that I had early in life was to score good marks in my class, whereby I got good grades which encouraged me to study hard in class. The difficult experience that occurred in my life was an accident on my way back home. I learnt that I should not play again in bad areas. In my life I am proud of myself. I was getting low marks in class but now I have managed to improve a lot. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life is to play football. It exercises my body regularly and hence strengthens my body system. My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. The best way to reach it is through studying hard in school, in physics, mathematics and chemistry. If I had power in my country, I would change the education system of the country so that it helps graduates to depend more on self-employment.
