In a momentous event on Monday, President William Samoei Ruto fulfilled his promise to the students of Lenana School Primary by providing school uniforms to all the pupils admitted at the institution. This gesture was part of a larger commitment to improving education infrastructure in the region, which also saw the official handing over of a newly constructed 24-classroom block to the Ngando Ward Community.
Lenana School Primary, the first public school in Ngando, has long been a vital educational institution for local children. With the new classroom block, the school is set to accommodate more students and provide them with an improved learning environment. The additional classrooms are expected to reduce overcrowding and allow for a better-quality education.
While addressing the crowd during the handover ceremony, President Ruto emphasized his administration's commitment to investing in education, ensuring that every child has access to both quality learning facilities and the necessary tools for success. "Education is the foundation of our future, and it is through such investments that we create better opportunities for our children," Ruto stated.
In addition to the classroom block, the president’s promise to provide uniforms for all new pupils at Lenana School Primary was a significant highlight of the event. The uniform donation was warmly received by both students and parents, as it will ease the financial burden on families and help ensure that every child has equal access to educational opportunities.
The completion of the 24-classroom block is part of the ongoing effort to enhance education across Kenya and is seen as a critical step in addressing the challenges facing schools in rapidly growing urban areas. The local community expressed their gratitude for the improvements, recognizing the positive impact the developments will have on the academic progress of the children.
Lenana School Primary, now better equipped to serve the educational needs of the Ngando community, is poised to play a key role in shaping the future of young learners in the area.
