Despite the challenges, he managed so score very well on the primary school exam in 2015. However, he was not able to attend high school in 2016 because he couldn't afford the fees. He is very grateful to receive a scholarship and now he is facing no challenges at school. "i am working extra hard to make sure i score an A in my KCSE exam and become an engineer in future. Then i will assist the needy and the orphans through Wema." -Lawrence.

Thank you everyone for sponsoring my high school education on the TSF.

The year started well, we were working hard to finish our syllabus so that we embark on revision. However, towards the end of term1 we were forced to go back home due to the outbreak of Covid 19. The school organized for an online learning during the long break but unfortunately I was not able to access it due to lack of facilities.

I was happy after the government announced school reopening for candidates. The school management together with our teachers are working hard so that we go through with the syllabus and embark on revision. I promise to achieve the best results and wish to thank all that are giving us a conducive environment for our learning.

Best wishes.
My name is Wabwile Lawrence, I am a student at Highway Academy. My life before coming to Wema was horrible cumbered by school fees problems, Family problems and many more, however, I got a scholarship from WEMA and all this took a U-turn. I would like thank all that are involved in Wema and the management of Highway Academy.

I like reading novels in our School library like, ’’The Blood Red Road’’ which teaches about moral lessons and how one should leave against each other. The subjects that I love most are Mathematics, History and Christian Religious Education because I wish to be a lawyer in future.

I also thank the school management for providing me with a conducive environment for me to pursue my dreams.

I have all the reading materials I need to pass my exams and I promise to do exactly that.

Thank You

    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.

    I have experience planting vegetables because my parents do that. Also, we have a garden at our home. Therefore, that is experience I have had in life. Apart from that experience, I also had a difficult experience when I failed my geography exam. That enabled me to learn how to cooperate with other students. I was so proud of myself when I performed well in my national exam. The memorable and happiest moment in my life will be when I reach my dream of being pilot. I will be so happy. My biggest dream is to be a pilot. I will get there through studying hard in physics, geography, and mathematics. After reaching my dream, I will help my parents to modify their cultivation system and to become professional farmers. From there they can expand the area of cultivation into a large plantation. Once I get a chance to have the power to change my country, I will build many airports in each region and some districts. This will help in the flexibility of transportation in my country.

    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.
