Peter
Peter
Both Peter's mother and father died when he was an infant. Social welfare referred him to the Rafiki Village Kenya and he joined his new family in March 2007. Peter now helps to ensure that class is secure by closing windows and putting things in their proper place once the lesson is finished. He is loving and social and appreciated by all. He is strong in Science and Language Arts, but he struggles in Kiswahili. He sometimes does things in a hurry, which leads to mistakes. He enjoyed learning about perimeter and surface area in Math and plants in Science. He is now more disciplined in completing his homework.
