Monday last week was particularly interesting as we had a chat
with the Form 1 scholars about their high school experiences so far. They had
quite a lot to say about the first three months in their new schools. Most of
them were quite ecstatic about the school clubs, sports, new friends and the
teachers but were not very enthusiastic about the menu and having to wake up very
early in the mornings. All in all, it was so much fun listening, laughing and
learning from each other. A few of their sentiments were;
Going off to high
school has really been a new experience, I have never been to a boarding school
before and I knew that it would require some getting used to. I have always been
very close to my family and absolutely love going home to them after a long day
in school. Helping my little brothers get ready for school in the morning, helping them with their homework, feasting on
my mother’s Ugali Samaki were some of
the things I couldn’t bear living behind. But I have quickly adapted and now
liking it, sure the diet is nothing like my mother’s cooking but the teachers
are great, I have made many new friends and I love being in the drama club,
it’s fantastic!-Mailine, Maasai
girls high school Form 1.
I really like our school library, it is huge and has so many books unlike in my primary school. I read all kinds of books. My favorite story book is Naomi Leon-Naom Nyaboke,Moi Forces Girls high school,Lanet.
What I like about high school so far is that we have the most amazing basketball team. I never had the chance to play basketball while in primary school and now I get to do so which I am so happy about- Velma, Our Lady of Mercy Girls high school.
As for me, I like playing football. I have always played football even in Primary school but it is much more different in high school because we get the chance to play football and compete even at the national levels which is so awesome! Javan-Pumwani Boys high school.
High school is very important in our lives, it has been said that it is in high school where we discover who we really are. As the Form 1 scholars continue with high school as part of the journey in their lives, we wish them all the best and look forward to having them complete high school and tell us about their first year at the university when that time comes.
