She came to us a small girl in 2010 when her grandmother, who she loves dearly, was unable to give her the home she needed.
Rukia is bright and articulate and with Mama Sue, Auntie Auntie Velma as her role models she knows that women can achieve their ambitions, with determination and hard work.
In this video she is talking to a gathering of teachers, many of them new to our staff.
Mama had brought them together to give them an insight into our family and what makes it tick so that they have a true understanding of our ethos which runs through all we do at home and in school.
Over the next days, we will be bringing you video glimpses of what was said by some of the children in our family and staff who work with them.
