As the form fours of 2024 approach the climax of their secondary education, their long-held hopes and prayers are finally coming to fulfillment. With just one month remaining before the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education exams (KCSE), students are strengthening their efforts and focusing on their goals.I recently spoke with one form four student who shared her determination to excel in her exams, driven by her desire to make her mother proud. Many students are working actively, aiming for excellent grades that will pave the way for their entry into universities and the pursuit of their dream careers.One student expressed her aspiration to become a journalist, reflecting the flexible determinations that fuel their hard work. As students of Children’s Garden, we stand in support of our form fours and pray for their success. However, there are challenges that some students face. A notable issue is the lack of essential exam materials, such as calculators, mathematical sets, and tables. We hope that assistance can be provided to ensure that all students are fully equipped and can perform to the best of their abilities during the exams.
