With opportunity comes responsibility

Gaining a sponsorship to our Happy House School is a gateway to a bright future for a child.
And this term we have awarded more free places to bright children in need;  children whose education is jeopardised by their family circumstances.
On Saturday, Mama Sue and Uncle Billy, our social worker and general manger, held a meeting for all sponsor children and their parents to highlight the mutual responsibilities that come with a scholarship.
Mama explained how we are committed to providing the best for the children and asked parents and carers to be equally committed to supporting and encouraging their youngsters in every way they can.
And she reminded the students, all eager to learn, that being a Happy House scholarship kid means working hard and always doing their best.
* We desperately need more sponsors to support young people on ours scholarship scheme. A scholarship provides education, books, uniform, shoes etc - everything a child needs to help them learn. If you would like to sponsor a scholarship student please contact Elizabeth Gomm elizabethgomm@childrenofwatamu.net
