733 Babirye Berna 
2013
|
|
School: LIA Christian Secondary School
Class S1
Gender: Female
Age: 14 Years Old
Ambitions: nurseOther Information: Berna lives with her mother in Bukakata –Kidandali(a fishing village).Both her parents were/are HIV victims. The father passed away a couple of years ago leaving Berna and her siblings in the care of the mother whose health is also bad. However, she is currently on ARVs/ART and we hope this can get her going for a couple of years.
Berna and Betty are twin sisters though not very identical. They both attend Kasaka secondary together with their young brother Paul. The three attend the same class which makes it easier to share notes and help each other.
They travel (walk) a very long distance to and from school (approximately 8 miles) But amazingly they’ve got the morale to learn. The 3 siblings missed school last year since there weren’t any secondary schools around their area and yet boarding school was extremely expensive for their poor mother.
So they are very privileged to be in school this year. Their mum has not job but during rainy season she plants some crops on her small piece of land in hope of getting enough yield for both home consumption and sell.This season she’s planted sweetpotatoes, cassava and eggplants.
The mother is so mindful about her children’s education despite her low income and poor health.

However, this year Lydia is still expected to be joining senior one.
We visited the father Lawrence who confirmed their divorce and he looked a little bit reluctant about his children?s future.
