School update:
There are 80 students on roll plus 49 ECD children.
There is no ECD building on the compound. The nursery
children use one of the primary classrooms with desks that are much too large. GMA agreed to contact the MCA Ibrahim Saleh
(majority leader) to discuss the possibility of the county building one.
There are 3 TSC teachers and one ECD teacher funded by the
county. There are no BOM teachers. There is one volunteer who covers the
religious studies (Muslim) curriculum as all the other teachers are Christian.
The new TAS funded kitchen and storeroom is in use.
The TAS funded cupboards are being built currently. They are substantial!
From January 2019 the school can have Standard 8 students
although there is a possibility that the current class 7 may be asked to repeat
class 7 as there are only 8 of them.
There is going to be an Education Day in January to boost
enrolment and parent participation.
Next meeting will be in January 2019
