Welcome to Ngeya Primary School
Ngeya Primary School was started in 1989 with only 184 pupils. In recent years, the population has greatly increased due to the introduction of Free Primary Education in 2003, internal displacement after the elections of 2002 and 2007, and population growth in Maai Mahiu town.
Currently the population stands at 1700 students with 300 desks, 18 classrooms (most unfinished), and 12 teachers. The school has a lunch feeding program provided by Kenya Kids Can. The classrooms have no electricity, and currently there are no computers at the school. This blog is updated from Kenya by Ngeya Primary students working on two donated laptops which are brough into the school twice per week by CTC Rafiki Link educators.
On this blog you will find posts from Ngeya Primary school and partners from around the world. Read and enjoy!

Dear friends at Negya Primary School,
At Albion Heights we have had a lot of fun and exiting things happening. There was the Talent Show that was called So You Think You Got Talent? It was very fun and amazing because it was well organized and a lot of amazing students sang, danced and played musical instruments for an audience of family and friends. The best part was that all the talent acts were original. The people who took part in the talent show were from Albion Heights school, past graduates and teachers. The Talent show was a total success.
Next we would like to tell you about our Track and Field Day. Track and Field Day is a competition for the entire school. It was very tiring for some people but the people that really put their best effort and won their events went to York University to compete against other schools from the city of Toronto. It was a blast. 2 students from Albion Heights Junior Middle School even made it to the city semi finals, with will be on June 11. Now let’s see if they can make our school proud!
Did you know we also had a chess tournament? It was OK because we lost our trophy to Smithfield Middle School. We came in second to Highfield Junior School. The students that participated were in grades 4, 5 and 6. When the students came back from their tournament they were excited and disappointed at the same time because they lost but they had a great experience.
Now we would like to tell you about our schools girl soccer team. Unfortunately the girls lost to Karen Kain Middle School. They lost 3 to 0. The MVP of the soccer team was Navreet in grade 7. The captain was Kieu Tran. But they did try their best and they had a good time.
The next big event is our Fun Day, which is being organized by the Future Leaders Club. It will benefit Ngeya Primary School. Students will get to come to the gym during the school day and play some fun activities with their friends.
It has been a busy May and June here at Albion Heights. It is hard to believe that the school year is almost over. We are finished on June 29th. All of us in the Future Leaders Club wish you a great summer holiday.
