Meet Vuth

I am Vuth. The thing I love most in the world is football. I can’t play at home because there is a big road next to my house, and my mum shouts at me if I play near it. She says it’s dangerous. That’s why I always love to come to school and play football here. I have a best friend called Vitou, and we always play together and we are really good. If we practiced even more, I bet we could be even better.

Apart from football, I like to draw pictures, especially dragons. I also like to be at home and spend time with my mother and father. I don’t have any sisters or brothers yet. I think life was hard for my family this year. My mother sells food and there were less customers because of COVID. So she had to borrow some money. I know her and my father worry about repaying it.

I would like to work very hard and become as good a footballer as Cristiano Ronaldo. He is my hero. I would love to win a big trophy. That would be the number one best thing in the world. I would give up all candy and sweet things and work really hard if I could be as good a footballer as him. If I was great at football, I could buy a car and a big house and even have a swimming pool. I think my mother and father could live there too. They look after me now, so it would be my turn to look after them.
