On November 26th 2023 to December 1st 2023 our then Form 3 class had a Charity Project in Budalang’i Sub County. They were off to assist in construction of parts of the Bunyala Model School.

During the last term of the school; the Form 3 class raised some money for the construction works in areas of Bunyala Model School. 16 boys from the class were picked during the school holiday to represent the entire class. The students were accompanied by their teachers.

Indeed it was time well spent by the students!

On Saturday 11th March 2023 the Form 3 class went to St. Charles Lwanga school in Ruai where they spent a whole day interacting with students. They are also helping in putting up a roof and finishing a dormitory for the school.

The School rallied by the Form 3 Captains embarked on a target to raise funds to support the Lisha Kenya Fundraiser which was aimed at fundraising for the Needy Kenyans. The 1 Million Shilling target mark was reached and most classes managed to hit their targets and were treated to class parties, Dress Down Friday and Excursions.

Grade 3s had a chance to visit St. Charles Lwanga School. Strathmore School had been in a reach-out partnership with St. Charles Lwanga School with an aim to help as much as possible. This time round the Grade 3s made a courtesy visit to the primary section of the school with donations of different kinds.

The Form 3 Captains in collaboration with the school management have come up with an initiative dubbed FEED THE NEEDY. This initiative aims at raising awareness about drought situation and also raising funds aimed at ameliorating the food crisis. We would like to channel our efforts especially towards school-going children in the north of Kenya so that as many of them as possible are able to get at least one meal a day. This we hope, will in turn, keep many of these children in school. Our aim is to raise KES 1,000,000/- (One Million Shillings).

we would like to appeal to each member of the school community to consider donating meals to these hungry children. Each meal is valued at KES 300/-. You can donate as many meals as you can afford.

You can make a donation by M-Pesa as detailed below:

PAY BILL NUMBER: 561550

ACCOUNT NUMBER: ACCOUNT NUMBER: LISHA e.g.10040LISHA

Please note that this campaign will run until Wednesday, 19^th October 2022.

On Saturday, 11^th March 2017, 60 Form 3 students visited Machakos Secondary School for the Deaf. Mr. Muhia, Mr. Haggai and Mr. Githaiga accompanied them. They began their journey at around 8:45 a.m and reached Machakos at around 11:30 a.m.

 The Deputy Principal of Machakos Secondary School for the Deaf welcomed the visitors and went ahead to introduce the members of staff present. The Strathmore group went ahead to introduce themselves and further explained the purpose of their visit. Being a school for the deaf, an interpreter was used.

 The students were then divided into two groups. The first group was to engage in peer teaching while other group was to have an inter-school debate.

During peer teaching the students of both schools were divided into smaller groups and worked through a mathematics paper. Any student who didn’t understand a certain concept was encouraged to ask questions so that his peers may help him understand. This was the essence of peer teaching.

It was a unique and enjoyable experience for the Strathmore students. One of the students, David Omondi commented: “It is my first time being in a room where there is so much communication yet no sound is being made.”

The debate motion was “City Life or Village Life. Better which?” It was a face-off kind of debate where a student was to give one point to support their stand before allowing the opposer to counter.  Village Life emerged victorious.

After the peer teaching and debate the Strathmore students were taught simple sign language such as the alphabet, simple family terms like mother and father, food terms like ugali and fish and the signs for various places like Nairobi and Nakuru. The Kenya sign language session ended at 1:30 pm and the students went for lunch.

 The students gathered in the main assembly ground at 1:40 pm for the presentation of the items donated by the students.

 After a brief photo session, the students boarded the buses at 2:20 pm and began the journey back to school where they arrived in school at around 4:15 pm.
