THE top most girl countrywide in the recently announced Standard Seven National Examinations, Justina Gerald from Tusiime Primary School wants to be an accountant and a business proprietor once she is through with her higher learning studies.
Justina, who was the fourth and the only
girl in the top ten list of best pupils countrywide, said the secret to
her success lies in knowing why she was in school and the fact that her
parents and the community were closely monitoring her performance.
“Hard work and knowing why you are in
school will definitely get you good results at the end..I honestly want
to express my gratitude to teachers at Tusiime and the management for
their relentless efforts in pushing us to study,” Justina said when she
was interviewed by Tanzania Broadcasting Corporation (TBC1).
She explained that from early on, she
noted that her parents and other people around her were following her
performance closely, forcing her to put more efforts in her studies.
Justina noted that her desire is to be an accountant or a business woman
once she completes her higher education.
Her mother, Ms Edna Majaliwa expressed
her appreciation to Tusiime management and teachers for their efforts
that saw her daughter clinch the fourth position in the country and the
leading girl in the Standard Seven results.
Tusiime school on the other hand came
fifth nationwide with more pupils than other primary schools in the top
ten list in this year’s Standard Seven examination results.
The examination results announced
recently by the National Examination Council of Tanzania (NECTA)
Executive Secretary, Dr Charles Msonde, placed Tusiime with 210 pupils
on board as it managed to produce two pupils in the top ten list of best
candidates countrywide.
The other candidate is Shaban Mavunde
who was fifth in the list. Tusiime Primary School came first out of 81
other primary schools in Ilala District and the second in Dar Es Salaam
