Eli earned a place in the first year of senior school at London Girls' High School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $850, which is more than they have. Eli loves biology and wants to become a teacher. 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 $850 goes: • Laptop: $500 • School uniform and shoes: $135 • Textbooks and workbooks: $190 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
