We are four weeks into the final term of the year in Kenya and the pupils of the Fountains of Hope school are continuing to work hard and prepare for their end of year exams in November.
Since Turning Point received a donation of laptops earlier this year our pupils have started to learn how to use computers. Once they master the basics, they will be able to access all kinds of information online and play different educational games.
Early in September all the pupils went on an exciting day trip to the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage in the Nairobi National Park. Here the children saw the baby elephants being fed, playing football and having a mud bath. The keepers told the children stories about each orphaned elephant and taught the kids more about elephant conservation. The children even got to reach out and touch the baby elephants. This was an amazing experience for them all and they enjoyed it so much. We aim to take the kids on such trips every term to learn and experience more of the world beyond Kibera.
Your donations to the Fountains of Hope school make these trips possible. Thank you.
