Day Activity Centre Gankhuyag (10) |
Gankhuyag was born on May 10, 1995 in Khuvsgul province of Mongolia. His mother left his father and
migrated to Ulaanbaatar, because his father was abusive and had lost all the family property
through gambling and drinking vodka. He had entered 1st grade at city secondary school-16 of city
in 2003, but his mother went back to Khuvsgul. He had no other family to stay with so he dropped
out of school to join his mother.
He started attending the Dari-Ekh DAC in September 2006. He could not read and write well
but he could count up to 10. Staff at the Centre met with Gankhuyag's mother and emphasised the
importance of education.
Now Gankhuyag communicates well with his parents, reads 27 words per minute, understands, and
tries to tell you what he has read. He also has good handwriting. He still experiences difficulty in
arithmetic. His current education level is up to the 2nd grade of secondary school.
He wants to become a policeman in the future.
