During school holidays, many Tumaini students return home to help their families and Irene is a perfect example of the discipline and heart our girls carry with them.
Irene is a focused Grade 11 student. Even while on break, she keeps a thoughtful routine that balances study, responsibility, and rest.
Her day starts early at 5:00 a.m. with quiet study time before she helps clean the house and prepare tea. After the breakfast clean up, she spends time reading storybooks and novels — her favorite way to grow her love for History.
By midday, Irene is preparing lunch for her family and begins her studies again in the afternoon before spending time with friends and relaxing. In the evening, she reviews what she learned that day and helps her mother prepare supper.
Her days are full, but they reflect who she is: disciplined, hopeful, and committed to her future. Students like Irene remind us that learning doesn’t stop when school closes — it simply shifts home.
