About

Class Rank: 2/244 My most difficult time in my life is when my mother did not have enough money to pay for my education. She had to borrow money from bank to send me to school. There were times when she failed to make the payment, the bank people came to our house and took her belongings. My dream is to be a surgical doctor. In order to reach my dreams I have to study hard, especially the subjects like Physics, Biology and Chemistry. And also learn from those successful surgeons. My happiest moment is when I learned well and scored the best among my fellow students. The moment I felt proud of myself is when I got A grade in Standard 7 National Exam. After I become a doctor I plan to help the sick people in my community. I also plan to help the School Fund by donating to it, so more needy students like me can continue their education.

Hello Madam Karen,
Hopefully you are doing alright, back to me I am doing well in most of my deeds.
Well, today I wish to share with you about the 10 interesting facts about Mountain Kilimanjaro which in the Highest mountain in Africa which is found in Tanzania.
Rising majestically above the African plains, the 20,000-foot Mt. Kilimanjaro has beckoned to climbers since the first recorded summit in 1889. Here are 10 interesting facts to help inspire your own future summit:
1. Approximately 25,000 people attempt to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro annually. Approximately two-thirds are successful. Altitude-related problems is the most common reason climbers turn back.
2. South African Bernard Goosen twice scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro in a wheelchair. His first summit, in 2003, took nine days; his second, four years later, took only six. Born with cerebral palsy, Goosen used a modified wheelchair, mostly without assistance, to climb the mountain.
3. Shamsa Mwangunga, National Resources and Tourism minister of Tanzania, announced in 2008 that 4.8 million indigenous trees will be planted around the base of the mountain, helping prevent soil erosion and protect water sources.
4. The mountain’s snow caps are diminishing, having lost more than 80 percent of their mass since 1912. In fact, they may be completely ice free within the next 20 years, according to scientists.
5. The fasted verified ascent of Mt. Kilimanjaro occurred in 2001 when Italian Bruno Brunod summitted Uhuru Peak in 5 hours 38 minutes 40 seconds. The fastest roundtrip was accomplished in 2004, when local guide Simon Mtuy went up and down the mountain in 8:27.
6. Almost every kind of ecological system is found on the mountain: cultivated land, rain forest, heath, moorland, alpine desert and an arctic summit.
7. The oldest person ever to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro was 87-year-old Frenchman Valtee Daniel.
8. Nearly every climber who has summitted Uhuru Peak, the highest summit on Kibo’s crater rim, has recorded his or her thoughts about the accomplishment in a book stored in a wooden box at the top.
9. Kilimanjaro has three volcanic cones, Mawenzi, Shira and Kibo. Mawenzi and Shira are extinct but Kibo, the highest peak, is dormant and could erupt again. The most recent activity was about 200 years ago; the last major eruption was 360,000 years ago.
10. Mount Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain on the African continent and the highest free-standing mountain in the world.
Mountain Kilimanjaro is very essential part of Tanzania and it is one of the thing that brings pride to Tanzania.
I am looking forward to hear from you about the pride of your country.
BE BLESSED.

Hello Hunter,
It is my hope that you are doing fine, back to me I am cool as a cucummber.
Till yesterday which was Friday, the form fours were still conducting their final National examination where yesterday some were finalising by doing their practicals specifically in Biology subjects. For the reason of the exams we were recommended to stay in the additional class in order not to disturb them while doing their exams. Right by next week on Monday the Form two's will be doing their National examinations which will push them further to the next level which is Form Three level. We as form three we are expecting to begin our exams on 20th of this month just after the Form two's have finish their exams.
That was just an information of what is going on at school.
Have a blessed moment with full of God's glory.

For the reason of the exams we were recommended to stay in the additional class in order not to disturb them while doing their exams. Right by next week on Monday the Form two's will be doing their National examinations which will push them further to the next level which is Form Three level. We as form three we are expecting to begin our exams on 20th of this month just after the Form two's have finish their exams.
That was just an information of what is going on at school.
Have a blessed moment with full of God's glory.

    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.
