Suo Sokum is a second grade student at the Ta Dav Nippon Foundation School.
She lives right near the school.
On herself: | I am fourteen years old. Three of my four siblings are at school with me. I live with my mother. She is a farmer. My father died when he went to rice field to check for wild animals, like boars. Nobody knows what he died of. It happened two years ago.
|
On the new building: | I love the new school. I am very happy to go there. The building is strong and nice. Without it I would never have had an opportunity to go to school.
|
On her spare time: | I help my mother in the farm. I remove sticks and bushes from our land so that we can plant rice there. When I’ m home I help cook rice.
|
In the future: | I don’t know—maybe a teacher? |
