Three pupils from Bridge School Kwa Njenga in Nairobi scored 401 marks in the just released Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) 2021 results.
Joyce Kemunto, Florence Kwamboka and Edwine Owuor scored 401, 401 and 402 respectively out of the possible 500 marks.
Joyce,15, has been a pupil at the school for eight years.
“The teachers at my school were very supportive. They are very professional, friendly, and approachable. They care about their pupils and provide holistic education,” overjoyed Joyce said after results were released.
Joyce lives with both her parents in Mukuru slums and her father who works as a casual labourer is their main sole provider because her mother is unemployed.
She walked to Bridge school every day for just to secure herself quality yet affordable education.
Joyce wants to be a neurosurgeon when she grows up and her dream school is Alliance Girls.
Edwin, 15, has been studying at Bridge Kwa Njenga for seven years.
His parents live in Kakamega county at his home village where the father works as a casual labourer while the mother is unemployed.
“I want to be a medical scientist because there are a lot of viruses breaking out these days that don't have a cure and would love to be part of the research team and discover different medicines,” he said.
Edwine, who wants to join Alliance Boys, thanked Bridge Academies for offering him an opportunity to learn.
On the other hand, Florence, who has studied at Bridge Kwa Njenga for eight years aspires to be an architect.
Florence, 15, said the teachers at the school were very helpful throughout her academic journey.
