Reach Team visits Lorengoh School, Kakuma
The Reach team stayed with us for about a month early this year, and this is what they were doing during their stay here.
-Children’s ministry
-Drama in the churches and schools
-Counseling in schools together with Life Changers
-Preaching in the churches and during pastoral sessions (devotionals) in schools
-Muslim ministry in the refugee camp
They did a lot with us even though they had a lot of trouble adapting to the culture here.
Lorengoh School gets new classrooms
On the 18th of April, we held a school committee meeting at Lorengoh school. The government, through the ministry of education Early Childhood Development (ECD) sector, has offered to support us financially; and we have decided to use that money to build two classrooms and an office. On seeing our budget, they will initially give us the first half, and then immediately we start on the project, they will send us the other half. The community has provided stones, ballast and water. They have also promised to work hand in hand with the ministry of education and the sponsors (ACMI).
The ministry of Education has also given us another teacher in addition to the head teacher. Now we have two government teachers, and two teachers from ACMI, totaling to four, which is good seeing as we have five classes to manage.
We now have 300 children who have joined the school after the introduction of the Early Childhood Development program.
We have also received 70bags of food which we are supposed to take to the school its opening.
