my name is Catherine wandaka aged 40 years . Am married with three children namely Sharon Joan and Ignatius.My parents are Mr and Mrs Wilson wandaka.They hail from Nyeri county in Kenya.I was schooling. in Kahiraini primary school from 9183 to1990.I joined Warazo jet secondary school from i991 to 1994.In1995 i joined st Marys teachers training college in Bura Taita.I have taught various school from 1999 to 2011.In 2012 1 decided to start my own school.the school is called Sharon secondary school named after my daughter.I started the school with capital of ksh4000 which i had saved.I used the money to rent a room where the first student were learning.I started the school in order to to help students from poor families unable to pay the high fees in government schools.I do purchase text books,desks and chairs and stationary for the students.Am hoping the school will grow in future to a big institution.
My business name is Sharon secondary school.It is in naivasha town.I started it in January 2012.I got my students through advertising (By putting posters on posts)It has 25 students.My income comes school fees that the parents pay for their students.The school is doing well despite the challenges that i do face.Some parents straggle to pay school fees for their children but others pay well.I wont loose hope since since there are big and well established businesses which encounter the same challenges.Am hoping for positive response from you.
when i get my loan i will use the whole of it to buy beds for the students,The amount is sh 9000 and one bed will cost sh 1500 so i will buy six beds.My school is now a boarding school and i have admitted 50 boarding students.I have 40 beds so my students are forced to share beds.with the six beds only 4 will share beds my problem is almost solved
