About

Vaati is the third born in a family of four. His father has been ailing and cannot perform heavy tasks. His mother has been supporting the family through casual jobs. Vaati dreams of becoming a doctor in future because he wants to help the less privileged like his father to access medical services. Covid-19 pandemic was a blessing in a disguise for Vaati. When schools were closed indefinitely, he used to wake up early in the morning to study and revise. He also attended the online classes. He utilized the opportunity well knowing that every cloud has a silver lining and emerged as the best student in his school. He enjoys playing football. Knowing his purpose in school was his secret advantage.

Dear Vaati, thank you for your note. I'm sorry it has taken so long to reply. We are very glad to hear you are well and working at your studies. Also congratulations on participating in volleyball. It's great to play team sports. We like to watch American football and our grandson who is 9 likes English soccer leagues. Our football season started in August and goes to January. We also enjoy gardening. This summer we grew tomatoes and peppers, greens and flowers. Some of the peppers were too hot to eat! The weather will be getting cooler here in Baltimore Maryland soon. Thank you again for writing and we are sending good wishes to you and your family from America. Karen and JP

Hello donors
How are doing?I hope you are all fine.On my side I am also fine. I am writing this journal to inform you that I am at home for a short holiday lasting for about three weeks.
At school the going is a bit tough since the teachers are rushing to complete the syllabus early enough and also the subjects are becoming more complex but am trying my level best to meet my expectations.
The term seemed short due to many activities which took part during the term.First there were ball games whereby I participated in volley ball. what ball game do you like to play?We were unlucky to proceed to the county level but I was happy for the progression I made since that was my first time to participate in games .
In academics, I´m putting a lot of effort to attain the best I can.I was able to improve in some subjects such as Mathematics. Finally I want to thank you all for your support in my education. I am very grateful and May God bless you all.Thank you..

Hello donors,
How are you doing?I hope you are all good.I am glad to inform you that I am at home for a short break which will take about three days. We will be reporting back to school on Tuesday. I want also to inform you that I have graduated to the next level.This was a new experience for me because the subjects are a bit challenging than the ones in the previous level , though,this is not a major problem to me because I have been asking questions in topics which I did not understand.

This first phase of term one was so short because there were athletics games which were held at our school. However I worked extra smart since next year I will be a candidate.

I am so grateful for your support.Thank you so much for contributing towards my school fees.Thank you once again for your continued support.
Goodbye.

    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.

    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.
