Meet Priyanka, 10th grade
30 November 2009
If you have been to our school, you definitely know Priyanka. No doubt that our little 14 years old student is one of the most talkative and curious students. Her smile shines from miles away! Priyanka joined PPES when she was 10 years old. At the time, she was a very shy little girl. Today, she's become a teenager, confident and healthy, preparing for the 10th grade Board Exams.
Not only Priyanka never misses school, but also, she loves it! Her favorite subject is English. She wants to speak fluent English and that's one of the reasons why she always welcomes our international guests. That... and... because she is just curious to know from which country they are from.
At school, Priyanka is known for her perfect attendance. Last June, she was awarded with a school trip to Amritsar and to the India-Pakistan border for her perfect attendance. "It was the best award ever because I love traveling! But traveling in India takes too long. That's why I have decided that I will become a pilot to fly fast". She just needs to decide which country to visit first!
Priyanka is full of dreams for her family. She has 2 little sisters who also go to school at Pardada Pardadi and a younger brother. They live with their mum - Nemvati, dad - Dhaniram and grandmother - Ganga Devi.
They live in a small house. There are 2 bedrooms. Life is not always easy at home, but "I will buy them a big house with my salary". Her dad works at a sugar mill between November and March. The rest of the year, if he doesn't find a job he stays at home. Her mother takes care of the house and the buffaloes. And after school, Priyanka and her sisters take care of the cooking.
Priyanka's dreams are high but not impossible! And it's our mission at PPES not only let her dream, but also that if she believes in herself, she can make her dreams come true.
