Teachers and pupils views
9th January 2012
Over the last few months we have received a few letters and emails from
teachers and pupils in Kenya. It is they, our beneficiaries, who can describe
the impact of our work best and we are delighted to hear what they have to
say - we hope you will enjoy reading their words as well.
 
 
Pupils...
 
The following are extracts from a letter from Mwakuleghwa Risper, a standard
8 pupil from Jora.
 
"Indeed we have so many benefits in our
class. Our classroom has really changed
after being renovated. Our class before
was so old that even when it rained you
could hear a drop of water. We were
really suffering. After the renovation we
now have a good classroom"
 
"We used to sit three pupils [to one desk]
but now every pupil has his/her own desk
and chair with locker"
 
"We also have a library in school. Many pupils always go to read in the library
For me I have really learned a lot because the books in the library have
helped me in knowing more things. I would like more textbooks!"

Teachers...
 
"Thank you for your continued support and we assure you a big change is
being realised and soon you are going to realise the results of your sacrifice
and commitment."
Mr Nicholas Mutui, Headteacher, Jora Primary School
 
"On behalf of the SMC [school management committee] and the teaching
staff at Kiteghe Primary School I would like to give my appreciation to you
for the projects you have initiated at this school...they are a blessing to our
institution. We have seen a great improvement in the academic standards of
our learners. Learning has become very enjoyable and children are always
enjoying the resources you have contributed.
 
We thank you very much and would like to continue having you in our
institution for as much time as possible."
Mr Elias Mzugulo, Headteacher, Kiteghe Primary School

"I would like to most sincerely thank you for the very good work you have
done by building and renovating the school structures. Thanks so much for
constructing the head teachers office and for the plan showing what you
intend to put up in the school from this year 2012 to 2014. I wish you success
as you embark on these projects."
 
"Our children are really motivated to learn because of the conducive
environment in classes and learning materials you have made available in the
school. We as teachers are also encouraged by your efforts and motivated to
work harder than ever"
Mr Allan Guni, Teacher, Jora Primary School (by email)
