Jeremiah
Before Jeremiah arrived in 2011 at the Rafiki Village Tanzania he lived at a children's home in Moshi four years with no known family. Jeremiah is a busy boy, and he has an active and good mind. Jeremiah has done well in his first term of Grade 5. He is learning that he needs to work hard on Kiswahili and his national subjects this year to do well in everything. We are happy to see that he has brought up his math scores and made an A in math! He is quite capable but needs to learn to concentrate in class and work hard on his homework.
