Little Michael is no longer a baby. He is Jowen's son and loves to come to school. Not long ago he was so little and would cry while following his siblings around the Living Compassion compound here where they live. He is always the first to be in class and enjoys playing with his friends.

Next year I am going to Grade 1, says Chilufya, who is a student in Veronica's class. He and his friends in Vero's class will go to Grade 1 if their parents can afford the school fees.

Grade 7 exams are on, and students are taking the opportunity to come out to the property early to read.
