Having been at Veerni for a year, D has showed herself to be a popular and creative young girl. Rather than having one best friend, she is friends with everyone, making sure to help anyone who is in need of it when it comes to group activities. She enjoys all parts of the day but her fun loving nature means she is particularly fond of the times when she is able to play indoor games with the rest of her peers.
Over the course of the academic year, her studies have improved significantly and she is doing very well, placing above average in all her classes. While her favourite subject is science, D proves herself to be a wonderful artist, displaying great creativity and imagination in the pieces she produces. Her love of colours and all things bright may also be seen in her appreciation of fashion, professing her preferred item of colouring to be pink shorts. However, ultimately she dreams of joining the workforce as a policewoman, rooted in her compassion to help those in need.
