Grade 10 exam study groups started

Grade 10 exams are due to start in India, at the end of this month.  This can be a very stressful time for students, because every subject must be passed, before they can advance to grade 11 and 12 or gain entry to a certified  technical course.  With rolling power cuts still in force, we decided to set up 2 venues, where grade 10 students from our village can study over the next 4 weeks and receive help from tutors.  The girls meet at the school, while the boys come to Shalom. We weren't sure how many children would come, but so far, every student from grade 10, has turned up for each session.  The teachers also want to lend a hand and have offered to sleep over and help tutor on the nights preceeding their particular subject exams.
