I earned a place in Year 11 at Nnewi Boys' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $150, which is more than we have.
I love biology and want to become a marine biologist. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard.
I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything.
Where the $150 goes:
• Laptop: $80
• School uniform and shoes: $30
• Textbooks and workbooks: $20
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $20
Thanks for being kind about this.
