Meet Isaac
April 13, 2015
Isaac is brand new to St Kizito Bidati Nursery School, having commenced his first year of Kindergarten in February 2015. Every morning, Isaac walks to his class with his older brother who is in P2. Thankfully, the brothers live near-by and don’t have to walk far to come to school.
Isaac is one of the 72 students taught by Petra – one the fabulous teachers whom African Revival recently sponsored to attend an ECD training course. Petra’s passion for teaching is evident as she gently helps Isaac with a drawing task, offering him kind encouragement as he holds a pencil, and traces the outline of a house.
Isaac enjoys school, particularly writing; currently the K1 students are learning how to form the letters of the alphabet. Petra has made colourful flash cards which are helping students like Isaac with this learning task.
After Isaac finishes school for the morning, he likes to play outside with his friends – like many boys and girls across the globe, football is one of his all-time favourite pastimes.
Within Isaac’s local community, many young men become “Boda- Boda” drivers; that is, motorbike taxi-men. Isaac is interested in following suit, and would like to one day purchase his own motorbike. As one of the school’s youngest students, Isaac is a shy young man but our hope is that during his time at pre-primary school, Isaac will grow in confidence, and with the help of Petra and other teachers, develop the academic abilities which will enable him to one day start primary school well-prepared for whatever future he chooses.
