Bridge MD lauds 2021 KCPE candidates for exemplary performance

Bridge Kenya Managing Director Griffin Asigo has lauded the exemplary performance by pupils who sat their KCPE saying the school continues to set high standards.

“For the seventh year running, the KCPE results are looking very positive for Bridge pupils. Our pupils have performed extremely well. We’re excited at what these strong results will mean for our pupils and their communities,” Asigo said.

The children have been studying hard with the support of their teachers and we’re confident of their success; proving once again that the Bridge teaching approach works,” he added.

Three students from Bridge School scored over 400 marks; Edwine Oduory from Bridge Majengo Mapya Academy Mombasa County scored 402 marks, Florence Kwamboka a pupil from Bridge Kwa Njenga, Nairobi Academy with 401 and Joyce Kemunto Bridge Kwa Njenga scoring 401 marks.

Edwine Oduory from Celtel and the last born in a family of six children said Bridge has teachers who are more of mentors to him and loved the fact that they offer quality education and he believes he will one day bring change to his community.

Edwine said with the help of his teachers who are easy to approach, prompt, and offer to help wholeheartedly, he has grown to love mathematics because not only do they teach it well but it is actually a stress reliever for him.

He dreams of becoming a Medical Scientist because there are a lot of viruses breaking out these days that don’t have a cure and he would love to be part of the research team and discover different medicines.

On her part, Florence Kwamboka noted that the teachers at Bridge were part of the reason she enjoyed going to school every day.

According to her, they are extremely supportive and good mentors.  Florence has scored 401 marks in the 2021 KCPE.

When not studying, Florence enjoys drawing, especially buildings. She aspires to be an architect in the future and one of her favourite building is the Taj Mahal in Northern India.

15-year-old Joyce Kemunto from Tassia Community who scored 401 marks hopes her dream of becoming a neurosurgeon will one day come to pass.

She feels people incur heavy expenses going abroad for treatment and she would love to be one among the few neurosurgeons in the country. When not focusing on books she enjoys singing and drawing.
