From Rose: Our nearest city is Kisumu

Hello

I am so happy to write to you.  My name is Rose . I am 14 years old. I'm a girl. I was born in Eshibinga Village in Africa. But I go to Sacho High.  I am learning French at our school. We are not very perfect but we can manage to construct sentences.  I have got one brother. My brother is called Jeff. He's 16 years old. My papa is called kamau and my mama is called Lucy. We live in Kisumu city.
About my country. It is called Kenya. Kenya is a lovely country. The current USA president has his roots right here in Kisumu city where we live. 

 

En 1901, Kisumu est devenu le centre administratif de la région avec l'achèvement de la ligne ferroviaire de la ville côté port de Mombasa. Certaines des attractions principales de la ville incluent le marché de Kibuye, le musée de Kisumu, un sanctuaire impala, un sanctuaire d'oiseaux, Point Hippone, et le kit Mikaye proximité et Ndere Island National Park. Le musée de Kisumu a été créé en 1980 et a une série de pavillons extérieurs. Certains de ces pavillons contiennent des animaux vivants. Maintenant, me parler de votre ville? Merci beaucoup pour avoir écrit pour moi.

Thanks for your letters! We loved them! We'll reply during the holiday!

Hello Sacho ! As you can see we don't wear uniforms in France! We like wearing jeans and sweaters!

The fresco that you can see behind us was painted last year by a local artist with a group of pupils involved in the art project! Do you like it?

Laurier on Rugby and the Kenya Girl guides.

Bonjour. Mon nom est Laurier. Je vis au Kenya en Afrique. Je suis une fille. J'ai 14 ans. Je suis si heureux d'avoir un correspondant en France. Nous étudions l'anglais, mais maintenant, nous étudions le français. Mon meilleur professeur est Mme Amunga. Elle est notre professeur de français. J'ai passé un bon moment de lecture de votre lettre d'introduction. Je suis un membre de l'association des Guides du Kenya. 

The photo shows girl guides in our school carrying food supplies to feed hungry people around our school.

The Girl guides are similar to the boy scout movement.   in our school.  Right now the girl guides  are working on a project to help orphans in our school. It involves raising money, building grass thatched houses and mud walled houses for them. Okay, in our village a bad disease ravaged the land. So many people died and many of our school mates are orphans.

 Do you wear uniform in your school ?

 pouvons-nous échanger des photos.? Dans notre école, nous porter du rouge. , Et si oui quelle est la couleur, comment ça ressemble? mais quand on va sur des activités de scoutisme que nous mettons sur la jungle costumes kaki. Bon, j'espère que nous aurons plus de temps pour discuter. J'aime les choses de jeune fille. J'espère que quand nous continuons à chatt nous pouvons échanger des noms de parfums, et les magazines fille. Je t'aime Eva. Ohhh. Félicitation à l'équipe de rugby français. Nous avons regardé votre équipe à remporter la demi-finale. Nous wil tous être regarder pour voir que vous gagnez la finale ce week-end. Cheers.

Hello Linda !! :D

Good morning Linda! I just wanted to tell you that your favourite football player Dennis Oliech has scored a goal in the France championship!

 I love this player too and I hope he helps the national team of Kenya to win!

Is Kenya qualified for the next African Cup of Nations?

France has qualified for the next European Cup to be held in 2012 in Poland and Ukraine.

Bye! See You!

Hello Antoine;

Bonjour à tous. ! J'ai adoré la lecture de votre courrier aujourd'hui. Merci beaucoup. Je me sens bien d'avoir un correspondant en France. Je suis heureux de ce lien. Aujourd'hui, notre professeur et mes camarades étaient occupés à écrire des lettres. Nous avons eu à les taper. Nous espérons les email pour vous demain. Dites m'en plus sur vous-même. Qu'est-ce que vous aimez? Mangez-vous français Fries, j'ai lu dans les livres que la France est l'endroit le plus romantique d'être dans le monde.

 I am not good in French. My sentences are not very good. We just started learning French two years ago.

I live with My Aunty because Iam an orphan. My parents died when I was very young. So I have been raised by my aunt. In Kenya, Many people have died as a result of HIV and AIDS.

The girls in Africa are looked down upon. Many parents do not take the girls to school. They take the boys to school instead. Also girls are married off forcibly to people who are older than them. I think these practices are bad. Girls should be allowed to get an education and marry someone they love.

We have many wild animals in our area. Our school is near a big forest. We hear the lions, the giraffes, the elephants moving around at night. Monkeys and baboons come all the way to our classroom area.

I want to thank your teachers for subscribing a football magazine for us. Thank you very much.

I loved the photo you sent me . Dennis Oliech is a great Kenyan player.
