My Project

Students basic needs need to be met first before they can be ready to learn.

A student cannot be excited about learning if they are hungry, tired and basic hygiene not being met.

There are so many other factors that contribute to a students learning and the above mentioned are just a few.

Students are more confident in themselves and their learning when the foundation of who they are is solid,

Help me give my students a solid start and finish to their days, to gain confidence in their education
