Lerato earned a place in the first year of senior school at Soweto International School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $250, which is more than they have. Lerato loves robotics and wants to become a marine biologist. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. She will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $250 goes: • Laptop: $155 • School uniform and shoes: $40 • Textbooks and workbooks: $50 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $5 Thanks for reading all this.
