Mapalo Chisanga is a delightful 3-year-old, who is currently attending Baby class at Pure Nard Preschool. She resides with her loving grandparents, who rely on cultivating vegetables and tomatoes for their livelihood. Mapalo lives a few kilometers away from the school and is fortunate to have her devoted aunt, Exildah, accompany her to and from school. This arrangement ensures her safe transportation, allowing her to attend classes regularly. Mapalo's mother, Christabel, is a single parent who is actively pursuing her tertiary education in Business Administration. Mapalo is an incredibly energetic child who always seems to be on the move, and her enthusiasm is frequently accompanied by a laughter that spreads joy to those around her. In the classroom, she displays good behavior and has a positive attitude towards learning. Mapalo has aspirations of becoming a nurse and showcases her early career interests through imaginative play, where she actively cares for others and plays the role of a nurse while looking after dolls.
