2. Masai culture o There are 42 tribes in Kenya, but the Masai are the most popular. o The Masai eat raw meat, drink cow blood, milk, and stream water. o The Masai’s houses are made out of wood branches, cow dung, and polythene paper. o The Masai women are determined to give birth every year. o Getting into school is a problem for the Masai children. o The Masai girls have to do chores before they can go to school in the morning. o The masai girls don’t have a good chance to get into school because the boys get there supplies before the girls.

6. Why should we build this school? So the Masai children can have a chance to get an education. So they don’t have to walk so far to get to school. So they have a sanitary place to learn at. So the children can get a free meal. So they can start school at a young age, and not an older age.

7. The total number of kids attending the school will be 51 students.

8. This is where the school is going to be built. The school is going to be built in Eluaai
