new fundraising project - JUnior school!

​​Will you help us write the next chapter in the

history of To Kenya With Love ?

For more than 30 years we have been enabling

some of the poorest children in Kisumu, Kenya’s

third city, to receive an education they otherwise

could not have afforded, and if we are to continue

to do so we need to undertake a major building

project.

Having started our first school in 1993 in a rented

bungalow, it’s almost 20 years since we bought

land in Manyatta, one of the poorest parts of town,

and built our own Nursery and Primary school

building, catering for 300+ children in eight

classrooms. Recent changes in the Kenyan education

system mean that if we are to continue to operate

we need to establish a Junior High School building

on it’s own separate site - this will cater for children

formerly in the last 2 years of Primary and the first

year of High School and provide dedicated areas

equipped for Science and Domestic Studies. At the

moment we are teaching these children in temporary classrooms on the existing site, and this cannot continue.

We have been fortunate to find a small plot of land immediately adjacent to the existing school, which thanks to the generosity of our loyal UK supporters we purchased last year. We now have architect’s plans and builder’s quotes for a single-storey building providing a Science Laboratory and Domestic Studies room as well as three standard classrooms, an office and toilet block. The cost of the project is £120,000 – a daunting amount for a small charity like ours. But we are committed to achieving this in order to continue to provide life-changing opportunities for these needy children and we hope you will help us.

Bricks cost £10 each, and there is no limit on how many you can buy.

Are you part of a group, Church. school or a business that could help raise money to build our school this year? This could be a great way to raise money and have fun together as a group?!

All donors will have their name (or nominated name if buying as a gift), on an artwork displayed in the New school.

sponsored children to kenya with love

​Last term our Grade 7 students took part in a practical assessment which will go towards their final grade at the end of Grade 9.

This session was all about cooking traditional vegetables.

These included sukuma wiki (Kale), spinach and dek.

They had great fun doing this and then served it to teachers and students in Grade 8.

The Bridge Church Chepstow

This Summer we had a visit from the Bridge Church, Chepstow. They helped in classes, took assemblies, encouraged the staff and children and did some painting in the nursery area.

They also came with lots of sports equipment and books for our library.

Everyone here was so happy to see them and we hope they will come back again soon.

Thanks to you all.
