One of SKF's first Rising Stars, Hoor ul Ain came first in her class, then placed 27th in Pakistan in the Kangaroo English contest.
Hoor ul Ain joined the SKF Learning Center in its first months in 2018, with only what her older siblings had taught her at home. In 2020 she passed the admission test for a reputed girls’ public school and joined grade 5 as SKF’s first Rising Star scholar, alongside her brother Zahoor.
In 2022 she took 1st position in her grade 6 class and received the school trophy. Asked what she wanted as a reward, she said: a burger.
