In outskirts of Ritchie Street in Chennai is where you would find Priya Suran, who takes advantage of the daylight for studying due to the lack of electricity in her home.
It is because of not having power in her home Priyar find herself spending her afternoon studying instead of playing with her friends.
Priya who live with an extended family of seven, believes that education is the only way out of their problem. Both her dad and mom work in the nearby construction site earning a small salary that brings bread at home.
Even if she is only 10 years old Priya understand that only through education that soon when she is a grown woman she would be able to provide her family with a good home.
" My father told me to study always" Priya is very close to her dad who encourage to study. Priyar also understood that for a girl to live a better life one should be educated.
With an ambition to live in a better community she said her father and the family at large motivate her to acquire the first position in her school.
" maybe I would be a teacher or a builder"
There is no particular reason of her dreams choice, Priya believes that hard work starts at the young age. She therefore have hope that if she keep working until her older age nothing would stop her from achieve her dreams.
By the end of the year Priya said she very sure she will go to the next standard. Not only passing well is very important to her however she is motivated to keep climbing the education leader until she secure herself and her family a better life style.
In her free time she walk around the street, sometimes playing with her friend but she have the best two dogs that she play with all day.
