Looking to the future: Engineering

Secondary school lasts for four years in Kenya, and it is a time when young people focus on achieving the results to take them on into the workplace.
So at Happy House we feel that it is important for them to hear from professionals about their field of work and the route that led them to it.
Engineer Justin Juma joined Mama Sue for an informative session with students.
He is a self employed engineer who fitted our electric fences and the CCT cameras at our school and a really nice man.
 His company is called Jazz Enterprises. 
He described his school life where students were beaten with sticks and how he grew up in the constant shadow of family poverty.
His determination to gain knowledge and skill got him into engineering school and now has  a successful business with eight staff.
