Joseph Kimu who is always ready to provide us with academic facilities for instance when we were in need of books, he provided us with the books. Another thing that I like about this school is the type of teachers we have. Our school has well qualified teachers who are willing to sacrifice their time for us to gain more knowledge.”

“Everything about this school is perfect. But the way teachers treat children is not good as the time for students to refresh their brains is not enough.”

We have upstairs hostels and beautiful different colours. The education is outstanding with outstanding performances by the students and we enjoy sports and entertainment for example we play netball and watch movies. The teachers are very friendly and helpful when students need help with academic work.”
