A 90-year-old is now the world's oldest elementary school
student. Priscilla Sitienei is from a small village in Kenya. She spent a long
time working as a midwife. She helps to deliver babies. She wants to read and
write to pass on her nursing skills and the medicines she uses. She also wants
to read the Bible. She said she didn't go to school when she was younger. She
wants to be a good example to the village children. She wants them to study.
The head teacher is very happy that Ms Sitienei is at school.
He called her, a "blessing and a motivator" and he is proud of her. All the
students love her. They want to learn and play with her. Sitienei is doing well
for her age. She had a special message for the children of the world, especially
girls. She said: "Education will be your wealth." She added: "With education,
you can be whatever you want." (Breaking News English)
