Welcome

The students arrived back from various parts of the country and were happy to meet up with their friends again after four weeks of holiday.

For most of the classes it was lessons as usual, but the Form Four students went straight into two weeks of mock exams. With the national KCSE exams due to begin in mid October, this is a crucial time for them to see how well prepared they are and which areas they need to concentrate on in their final weeks of revision.

For David and Dan, it is time to look ahead to next year's Form One class. A week after term began, they set off on fieldwork to interview those who have applied to join the school in 2012. With many hundreds of kilometres to cover, mostly on very rough untarmacked roads, a lot of preparation was required to make sure the vehicle was ready and they had all the supplies needed for the journey - including cans of fuel, tools, spare parts, food and cooking utensils.
