Read for the Top success!





Wonderful day at Mwiyenga Primary for Read for the Top. This is a poor rural school that used to be bottom in results of their division of 54 schools. This year the grade 7 who did R4T last year captured the top three places in English and one girl had 100% in math. The teachers are ecstatic. I mentioned this is a Virtues school and about 30 of the students recited their virtue for us, which I have on video. Unfortunately it needs some captions before I can post it as the accents are hard to understand. I'm adding a couple of shots of the students in the competition (Concentration and Consultation), the staff and one of the flat tire that greeted us as we left. The road was very bad and stony!
