Nabil’s New Beginning
Nabil Henry completed his primary education in 2024 but was not selected to join secondary school. During this period, he became exposed to negative peer influences and engaged in age-inappropriate risky behaviours. After joining the Bonga Center, program staff identified his vulnerability and provided structured counselling, mentorship, and psychosocial support to encourage his return to school. Despite an initial fear of failure, consistent support helped Nabil rebuild his confidence. He later enrolled at Jupiter Secondary School, where he has developed a strong interest in Mathematics. Nabil now aspires to complete his formal education and pursue a positive and self-directed future.
