The School Fund

About

For a long time the obstacle to my studies has been paying my school fees. That is due to the fact that my parents are poor farmers who depend on small scale agriculture to support the needs of the five children who study at the same time. My dream is to be a good geologist in our mother country Tanzania who will help our country to use the minerals like the gold, sliver, and Tanzanite. This can be fulfilled by getting a degree at the university of Dar-es-Salaam in the subject of geology. I am happy now because I am studying Geography which will help me on my way to being a geologist. When I was selected to join my school for Advanced level, I felt very proud of it because I heard the good news from others that the students here are doing well.

hello Jenny
i give sorry for your mother to seek . Today am try to tell how HIV/AIDs have impact in our daily life
HIV means acquired immune deficiency syndrome . Impact include
Loss of labour. death and illness reduce availability both produces and consumer because people failure to work
Orphan ,many child remain without parents due to death and other people failure to give grivance hence become street children .
Increased challengers to elder and caregivers ,orphans that remain without parent give the load to other people who remain due to different need which child remain need.
Also led to shift of production from cash crops to food crops in HIV affected households . This led to lower household income and lack of fund to buy non food essential to maintain agricultural yield. To end up HIV/IDS have so may impact but the societies can use strategies as follow to combat them;
First religious teaching , counseling to pregnant women, provision of condoms freely to people , and provision of medicine to different hospitals [ ARVs ] not only enough but also medical check up every time.

Dear student,
It has been a long time since I last wrote to you. I am very sorry! It is not because I forgot nor because of my laziness, but because I was tied up with my personal problem. My aging mother has been in and out of hospital many times for health issues, and I am her major care giver. Thanks for everyone's prayer,she makes small improvement.
Wish you do your best on your learning and make great effort preparing your test. You have big potential that's why TSFTZ funded you.
Please keep on writing your journal entries, we enjoy reading them and will try to write back to you at our best ability.

Hello Judy,
I think you health its good am answer the journal that you wrote to me in 27 march 2017. My self there are different things that i like from school but in some how there are some issue that could not be done good.
By starting with things that am like from the Ganako secondary school.
First the school regulation allow me to get much time in studying rather than other activities ,
Second the school computer room known as TSF Tanzania school fund help us to get different materials by using RACHEL and by using google to search different materials .
Also school library help to get different books which in studying .
Also availability of teachers for all subject , contribution with other student who are the member of Tanzania school fund by discuss different issue in subject and how to live .
Not only the goods you see above but also in some extent there are something which its not good like , Climatic condition of that city Arusha its so cold compared to other city from Tanzania like Mbeya , Mwanza and others
Apart from what am like and what am not dislike my view to that time is to study hard because the school fund help my parents and my self to get education without fear about school fees .
To end up the needs that am need also is the fund or money to pay for fare when school close in June .

Dear student,
It has been very long time since last time I wrote to you. I have been out of town attending conferences, doing business and helping with family issues.
I know the new school year began two months ago and I hope you are able to focus on your studies and set goals for yourself. I hope you are doing well this school year.
In your journals I would like to see you are learning, what you like and dislike about the school, your accomplishments, your difficulties your life and your obstacles you face.
I want you to evaluate yourself, what is your strength and weakness, which area do you need to improve yourself. That way I could know who you are and help me to know you better. I wish you have a great year ahead of you and let me know there are anything you need me to help.
Best regards, Judy

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.
