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!

Snow in Chicago!



Hello!
We are very sorry that we have not blogged for a while. We have been really busy this new year. Happy New Years! In school we are having a Valentines Day celebration. Valentines day is a day full of love where people give each other notes that tell them you care about them. Right now there is snow on the ground and it is very cold. Our seasons are opposite of yours, so you are probably experiencing very hot weather. We will blog again soon!
