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!

News update

Hi this is the eighth grade student council. It was so nice to hear from you! The weather here is getting colder. This Friday is our first school dance of the year. We are all so excited! Halloween is just around the corner, and we are all preparing our costumes. Do you celebrate Halloween in Kenya? Some seventh graders are dressing up as pop stars in a band that they made up. Our class is going on a field trip tomorrow to a nature museum to study ecosystems. In social studies, we are going to start watching Roots. Until next week!
