Peter Gai K.

Peter K., 2009

I am a young boy named Peter Gai K., a Sudanese by nationality and my age is eleven years. I was born in South Sudan.  I have two sisters and one brother.

We lost our father when I was a young child and my mother has taken care of us since then. She has struggled hard to feed us and bring us up.

I was taken by my uncle Peter Herjok Nyok who brought me to Kenya so that I can start my education at Timothy Primary School. He has taken care of me since then and I am now in class three.

My favorite subjects in school are, English, C.R.E, and history. I find history a very interesting subject since it gives me a lot of information about our ancestors and where we all came to live in the countries we live.

My hobbies and interest are playing football with my friends and the children game called hide and seek.

I have always wanted to be a teacher when I grow up.

Abraham Kuot A.

Abraham Kuot A.,  2009

I am a Sudanese boy called Abraham Kuot A.  I  am 15 years old. I am in class7 in Timothy Primary School in Nakuru, Kenya. I usually walk to school every morning and return home after school.

I am the second born of my parents. I lost my father in the civil war that broke in my homeland Sudan and I was left with my mother and it was really hard for her to feed us let alone educate us.

My favorite subjects in school are Agriculture, Business studies and science. Farming was part of me since I have grown up in farming when I was young and I loved farming and that’s the reason I love agriculture.

In the near future I would wish to be an agriculture officer where I will be able to educate farmers on the best farming methods and all other necessities in farming.
