Our Mission
Our institution has two day schools and orphanage which serves as a children home for the children in need. To become self-sustainable, we initiated some projects as part of our future strategic development.
​
Our schools are guided by the usual curriculum contained in the CBC system of education in Kenya. We are a complete and competent primary school from class 1 to class 8. In the baby care unit, we have the baby class, pre-primary 1 and pre-primary 2.
Through donations we have fresh piped water and storage tanks to ensure our pupils hydration. As back up measures we have a water well which serves our school, as well as our community.
​
Our Schools
There are two schools in the Barnabas Project - Barnabas A and Barnabas B.
​
Barnabas A functions as the main school and is way bigger than Barnabas B. In Barnabas A approximately 425 children attend to school, in Barnabas B there are 211 chilrden. For many children, especially the smaller ones, travelling to school is very difficult. By having schools in two different locations, we can now offer them a good education close to their homes.
​
Our orphanage, where the children in need live, is located next to Barnabas A.
​
In each school, qualified teachers assure the children to follow the syllabus.

School Activities and Leasure Time
Our school day commence at 8 am and break for lunch at 1 pm with two breaks in the morning. Afternoon classes start at 2 pm and end at 4 pm where pupils break for games and go home for the day scholars.
​
We focus to the holistic development of our children. That is why we encourage children to involve themselves in extra curriculum activities. We also have story books and a games field and a room where the children meet for entertainment.
​
In order to keep fit and healthy, our children participate in various activities that include
football, volleyball, netball, athletics, poetry, drama, dancing competition or scatting.
​
Teachers and volunteers organise regular trips to the nearby beach on weekends, football games or other activities.
