Nursery School

Lunch & a smile

North Albany Community Church has supported the Lower Huruma Nursery School since 2007.  Our support includes a morning break of porridge and daily lunch of ugali and sukimi wiki (vegetables).  We also provide the salaries for 3 teachers and the cook.  There are presently 95 children divided into 3 classes from ages 3 years to 7 years.  They are the Baby Class, Pre-Unit and Kinder classes.  For the past 2 years we have also provided uniforms and ongoing school supplies and basics.  In 2012 we were able to provide them with their first set of books for all the classes and they were able to participate in exams. We also were able to provide some of the children shoes, medical help and uniforms for those entering Primary school outside of Huruma.

Most of the children & teachers - April 2012

There are 3 teachers; Regina, Gladys and Beatrice who have been with the school since it's beginning approx. 12 years ago.  Parents are asked to pay the equivalent of .50 a week, but often that is too much for the family.
