A DAY TRIP TO EWUASO NAJILE GIRLS SECONDARY SCHOOL




Esther, MWEEP's Moi University graduate, is teaching at this school, hired by the board until she receives her diploma in Feb 2011. Then she can be a government hire. We headed north in the Rift Valley. Once we got to a spot along a large escarpment, we stopped for a "picnic"--chapati, peanut butter, liquid yogurt, bananas and sodas. This was an unusual experience for our Maasai friends.












Esther was pointing toward Ewuaso and Mt. Susua. We still had to drive down the rest of the escarpment and then along the valley to Ewuaso and further to the school. Esther is in her classroom, schedule for a day, and Esther Sein one of our scool fee recipients.


Esther was a Form 4 student so she has now completed secondary school. She will receive her marks in Feb. She wants to go to university to be a nurse. She was proud to share with us that she was the head of her dorm. This school has 4 dorms with 50 girls in each dorm. This is a fairly new school. Esther is the younger sister of Grace, the first girl Jon & I helped with school fees in 2004.

It was an amazing day for all of us. Even our driver told me later that it was one of the better driving days for him.

Esther Namunyak Otoma will be going through graduation ceremonies at Moi University, Eldoret, Kenya on December 12, 2010. Jon and Loanna Day, MWEEP Founder/President will be attending the graduation with some of the MWEEP Kenya officials.
Esther has gone through many hardships and with a tremendous amount of perseverence, she has reached this milestone. Esther is the first girl from her village Ilngarooji to attend and complete university. She has a major of English and Religion. She has already started to teach at a secondary school since her coursework was finished mid-year.
Esther has goals to obtain her Master's Degree and be a Headmistress for a Secondary School.
MWEEP USA is so proud of Esther and her accomplishments. CONGRATULATIONS
