Empowering the Next Generation!
Yesterday, we held our Term 3 Mentorship Session, bringing together student beneficiaries of the ABAKI SHULE program for an impactful day of learning, growth, and motivation. The session was packed with activities that addressed key topics such as academic excellence, character development, goal orientation, and navigating challenges as youth in today’s world.
The energy and enthusiasm displayed by the students were truly inspiring.
Through interactive discussions, practical exercises, and peer engagement, the session reinforced our commitment to providing wholesome support beyond financial solutions.
We believe that mentorship is a critical ingredient for building confidence, resilience, and focus in our young leaders. Here’s to seeing these students continue to rise and shine in all aspects of their lives!

We believe that financial support is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to nurturing students success, especially in Kilifi county.
Why Mentorship Matters:
1️⃣Mentorship plays a critical role in the effective growth and excellence of students. Beyond academic knowledge, students need guidance to navigate the complexities of their educational journey and personal development.
2️⃣ Research shows that mentorship can significantly impact a student’s academic performance and personal development. It provides a support system that helps students stay motivated, engaged, and focused on their goals.
Key aspects of our the ABAKI SHULE Mentorship program:
✓Holistic Development: Our mentorship program covers a wide range of topics, from academic support and career guidance to personal development and emotional resilience.
✓Skill Building: Our interactive workshops intend to help students develop critical skills such as effective communication and problem-solving.
✓Positive Role Models: We are striving to provide our students with positive role models through our network of individual partners to offer our students inspiration and encouragement.
While we are still in the early stages of this program, we want to AMPLIFY the critical role that mentorship will contribute to the success of the entire ABAKI SHULE school fee loans program. We are pursuing the mentorship program with EQUAL significance as our investment in the ABAKI SHULE school fee loans.

]]> Creative Writing Session in Olivine Academy https://impertimus.org/creative-writing-session-in-olivine-academy/ Wed, 22 May 2024 09:01:38 +0000 https://impertimus.org/?p=8702
In 2022, we had the privilege of conducting our creative writing session in Olivine school in Mombasa. This come when the director of Olivine Academy, Dr. Oliver saw social media posts of African Storybook activities on our social media.
We had a meeting on how we can conduct the Creative Writing session in her school.
She had tried different apps to engage and encouraging the pupils and her staff to embrace reading and writing but was not successful.  We did a school assessment on what gadgets were available including computers, and tablets. At that time, they had 20 tablet and 1 digital tv which could not support either downloading the African Storybook apps or upload the downloaded African Storybooks pdf which we use for our writing sessions.  We did a pilot of creative writing session with one class of 14 pupils.
 
 
Early 2023, we did conduct the creative writing sessions for 95 pupils from grade 3 to grade 7. Currently each grade has 2 classes per week for African storybook activities.
 To ensure continues use of African Storybook and support for students writing process, the teachers were trained on the 2 main African storybook tools (Reader and Maker applications) to the teachers for future use in classrooms. 
The pupils have for far publish a number of stories using the maker app and currently writing more books under their writers’ club.

One of its program is running reading clubs and literacy combined with feeding program in schools around the area. Neema Foundation is looking forward to opening its own Community library on its site.
Neema foundation was referred to me through the CEC for Education and ICT Ms Clara Chonga as we have similar interests and agenda literacy promotion in Kilifi county. Dr. Kamuche Kea-Sadik the founder of Neema foundation was interested to know how African storybook can come in to support and add the books in their upcoming library in Matano Manne, Ganze sub-county in Kilifi.
 
We shared what African storybook website and apps has done and how our activities have reached different schools in Kilifi County by uploading African storybook downloaded books in the school tablets.  
Out of the meeting, we agree to support their reading activities by providing downloaded African storybook in the schools they have activities in. These are Misufini primary school,Ziwani primary school and Mwarandinda primary school located in Matano Manne.
On May 10th 2023,we had the opportunity to visit the organization site area and reached Misufini primary school where we launched a reading club. 766 African storybook and 120 book volumes of the same were uploaded onto 20 of the school tablets that are currently been used by the school and Junior Secondary school to improve their literacy levels. The reading club was formed with 150 children enrolled and are meeting every Friday since May 10th 2023.
 

We are planning for another date to reach the other two schools and  also looking to find a way of using African storybook to a deaf school in Kibarani in Kilifi. We are still at the consulting stage with an officer from social services in Kilifi.
