Kelvin
Kelvin
Kelvin and his sister had been in the care of their grandparents since the death of their mother and father. The grandparents found it difficult to care for two children and asked for help. Kelvin and his sister arrived at their new home at the Rafiki Village in Tanzania in 2009. Kelvin is a sweet boy who loves to play but is less focused on his school work. Kelvin is being tutored in the afternoons, but still struggles in many subjects. Kelvin did bring up many of his grades for this first term of Grade 6. He is learning that to do well in school he must put in more concentration and time doing his homework.
