Aurora
Armando earned a place in the first year of senior school at Aurora International School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $800, which is more than they have. Armando loves mathematics and wants to become a doctor. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $800 goes: • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $50 • Laptop: $450 • Textbooks and workbooks: $300 Thanks for being kind about this.
