Am back again with another story about me and how I came to join Hopewell High School.
I finished my Primary school/grade eight in the year 2002 at Oljorrai Primary School which is in Gilgil division.I performed well and got good grades to join High School but I didn't join one because the fees were too high and my family couldn't get that money.
I was forced out of school.I looked after my elder brother cows for some years until one day as my elder went to visit his friend at a nearby village when he met James Yegon and some Hopewell student who came to plant some crops on a land that Hopewell had leased for a year.My brother and James talked for sometime and told him all about Hopewell and that their fees was low compaired to other school.By then Hopewell fees was 1500sh per term.My brother took me to the school the following day and got admitted.
This was like a nightmare to me because I never thought I would ever go to high school again after three year out of school.Everything was new to me from new environment, I looked weird in school uniform again and new faces.As time went- by I got used to everything.
I established better relationship with my fellow students and my teacher and I also became good friend of James Yegon who took me to visit his family and was excited about that.Yegon later introduced me to his friends.Later on september a group of travellers visited our school.Here I met Phill Klamm whom I talked as a the first traveller.I was suprised to find that Phill was known all over the school.
We became good friends with Phill over the years.On their last day in Kenya Phill invited me and a friend of mine to Hotel Kunste where they were staying.
As we finished dinner,Phill took my friend and I to his room and talked for a long time.Phill said that he was going to offers us a job at the IV after we were done with our exams in November.I was so suprised because I didn't expect that and that was good news I hadn't heard in a long time.I didn't believe that until in december when we started working at the IV were I still work until now thank to Phill Klamm.
