Let us help our people to achieve the best in their lives
MONDAY MOTIVATION! Meet Violah, in Primary 7. She has been at our schools since she was 6 years old and adores coming to school each day.
Violah's Dad passed away three years ago, leaving her Mum without the financial means to support her family. She couldn't cope, and left Violah and her siblings with their elderly grandmother.
Every day, Violah wakes up at 5am to fetch water, cook meals and make sure that her younger sisters are properly looked after. Then she walks half an hour to get to school. Despite this adversity, Violah has flourished at school. She has many friends and loves school because it's a place where she can be a child. When asked what she’d like to do after finishing school, Violah’s response is ‘I want to be a teacher to help other children’. Education really does change everything.
