About

Emmaculate is the last born in a family of three; one sister and one brother. Her parents rely on subsistence farming for livelihood, which has been greatly affected by the changing climate. While in primary school, Emmaculate spent most of the time at home while the other students were at school. This was because of lack of finances to cater for some of the requirements at school. This did not stop her but instead propelled her towards achieving her dream of becoming a cardiologist in order to save lives. Her role model is Barack Obama and she likes his phrase of ‘Yes we can’. Moreover, she likes reading story books during her free time.

Dear Emmaculate--

Thank you for sharing about your first term. It sounds like it was busy and that the closing celebration was special, except for all of the rain.

What is your favorite subject in school? What book have you read recently? I hope while you are home you check out some books from the Kenya Connect library. Reading is very important to future success. Read books that are fun for you. They have so many wonderful stories and librarian Esther can help you pick out a book. I read every day for fun. Right now I'm reading a story based in Nova Scotia Canada. I'm learning so much and very engaged with the characters.

Today there is a solar eclipse in the U.S. I am hoping to see a bit of it. It's when the moon goes in front of the sun. It's really interesting.

Have a wonderful break, read a lot of books, and help out your family.

Take care,
Sharon

Hi Donors,
I am very well and I hope that you are well too. How was your Easter?The term has been a long one but I am glad that it is finally over and also very glad as I am writing this journal to you informing you that we are now back home for a break of almost a whole month.We closed school on 6th of April and we will be reporting back to school on 2nd May.The term was a busy one and also a fun one besides it being long. On the closing day, the school held a prize giving day for the last year´s candidates who had performed well in their KCSE exam. Before the event we had prepared ourselves with much effort, by decorating the place where the event was to be carried out and also by composing songs, plays,poems,dances and so much more but we were not lucky. The day finally came but it rained heavily on that morning. Everywhere in the school was muddy and filled with water so the venue was changed and taken to the dinning hall. Since we could not fit as a whole school together with our parents,we as the students did not participate. Its only our parents who occupied the hall and the rest of us went back to our classrooms, waited for the event to come to an end and then went home together with our parents. That is how our school's closing day was like.
I would like to extend my gratitude to you all for your generous contributions towards paying my school fees. May the Almighty God bless you all and may your pockets never run dry.
Goodbye!

    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.

    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.
