She is studying at the local elementary school to learn to read and write. Ms Sitienei has spent most of her life working as a midwife, helping1 to deliverbabies.

She also wants to be able to read the Bible. Sitienei said she never had a chance to go to school when she was younger. She said she knows she is old buthopes she will set an example to younger people. She wants all the children in her village to study.

一名90的肯尼亚奶奶成为了世界上年龄最大的小学生。普丽西拉.西蒂耶内,人们又叫她戈戈,她来自科尼亚的一个小乡村。她正在当地的小学学习读书和写字。普丽西拉做了大半辈子的助产士。她希望自己能够会读会写,这样她就能够把自己的助产经验教授给其他人,并写下她在接生时所使用的特殊中草药。她还希望自己能够看懂圣经。普丽西拉说她小时候没有机会去念书。她知道自己很年老,但是她希望自己能够为年轻人树立榜样。她希望村庄中所有的儿童都能够接受教育。

When Ms Sitienei first tried to enroll2 at the school, the head teacher David Kinyanjui did not think it was a good idea. Now he is very happy that Gogo is at the school. Mr Kinyanjui said Gogo is a "blessing3 and a motivator". He added: "I'm very proud of her. She is loved by every pupil. They all want to learn and play with her." He also said: "She is doing well considering her age. I can say I have seen a big differencein this school since she came." Gogo had a message for children everywhere, saying: "I want to say to the children of the world, especially girls, that education will be your wealth." She added: "With education, you can be whatever you want - a doctor, lawyer or a pilot."

当普丽西拉选择要去上学时,校长戴维.基尼扬朱伊认为这个想法太棒了。如今,他因为戈戈在学校而感到高兴。基尼扬朱伊先生说戈戈是我们学习的动力。他还说:“为她感到骄傲,“为她感到骄傲,学生们都很喜欢她,都喜欢和她玩。”她做出了正确的选择,自从她来到学校以后,我们看到了学校的变化。”戈戈也为所有儿童留下了话,她说我想对全世界的儿童说,特别是女孩,教育是我们的财富。”她还说:“有了教育,你才能心想事成,你可以当医生、律师、飞行员。”
