He is a pupil at the village school "Koranic school" (school of the Koran), specifically for boys. He shared the room with the other boys. Beds are the basis for them, some supported by bricks for the foot of the mattress.
At six o'clock every morning the children start working at the school farm, where they learn how to dig, harvest the corn and plow the fields by using the donkey. In the afternoon they studied the Quran. His spare time (Lamine) likes to play soccer with his friends.
