Firstly, as Sunday is kids' day on the blog, we introduce scholarship student Lovinne who has written about her new class:
My name is Lovinne and I am now in class seven.
My class teacher is called Mr Allan.
My best friend is called, Pendo.
Our class prefects are Yvonne and Katana.
Every day we get to school early and start doing revision with other people.
I am very happy to be in a new class and in our new school.Secondly, Mama Sue reinforces the message that Education is the only road out of poverty.
