Our school kitchen was pulled down when the road was widened

 Most of the children who come to Church on the Rock School live in narrow streets of tiny one- or two-roomed houses made of corrugated iron sheets. There is no piped water, and most have no electricity. The school meals we fund boost the children's health and encourage the children to come to school to learn.



School director Ruth Ndetei reports on how the first term of the 'new normal' is going:

The children are enjoying their meals at school. I took the photos on two different days - during the rice meal day and the "githeri" (beans and maize) day. As you can see, we have a new cook. Her name is Josephine Nyambega, and she is also a parent at the school.

We are preparing the meals from our office upstairs and serving them in the classrooms because our kitchen was pulled down due to road expansion. The compound is a little smaller, but we only lost the kitchen and the small classroom that was next to the road.

Thank you for your support. At the moment we have a total of 330 pupils at the school, and the meals are a great help to the children. Please let your donors know that the donations they give are making a big difference. God bless.
