The year 2020 started very well and we all had a lot of hopes that the year would be more fruitful than last year but things changed and most activities could not continue operating normally including institutions. This was after covid 19 hit the country just like other countries in the world. The government closed all the institutions indefinitely in mid March to date. Since then, students and pupils have been at home with no idea of when the schools would resume. It is very unfortunate and especially to the candidates who were preparing for their final exams later this year. The government has not given clear directions on the way forward in regards to the schools reopening or even position of the final national examinations. In our program we have 2 candidates who were preparing to sit for their final exams later this year and we have been following up with them on their progress where they express their stress as they cannot access on-line learning services as other candidates due to various challenges among them lack of smart phones, computers, internet connectivity etc. It is unfortunate since we cannot assist them much although we provide revision materials when we have them and of course encouraging them to continue doing studies on their own with other students in the villages though observing safety measures. We thank God since there are no reported corana virus cases in the villages and we continue encouraging our communities to observe and practice safety measures in order to protect themselves, their families especially children who have little knowledge on corona virus. We remain optimistic that soon the disease will come to an end and things will be back to normal very soon and we will have our students and pupils report back to school and continue with their studies. Thank you all for your continued support
