Kirantos Sunshine Primary School

Kirantos Sunshine Primary School Located in Oloirein Lemek Narok west Constituency, the Kirantos Sunshine Primary School started in January 2016 under the tree with 10 kids.

We now have 7 classrooms and 135 kids and hope to be able to complete a 9 year primary school soon.

It all started almost 10 years ago in summer 2016…

…when Sabine, Kathleen and I spent time at the Maasai Mara with our favourite wildlife guide Daniel Kiranto Nabaala. A few weeks earlier, Michael, a colleague of ours had helped Daniel to put up a facebook and a gogetfunding page to raise funds for a school in his home village. The walk to the next school was leading through territory full of dangerous wild animals, like hyena, leopards, elephants, even lions. Therefore the community had started to put money together for a teacher, who taught the smaller kids up until the age of around 10 in the shade of a tree at home.�We decided to help and alerted our friends and family - within a month we built the first classroom.
Fast forward almost 10 years later we have built a primary school one building at a time. A bunch of kids already finished primary school with very good results. We are really proud of having helped achieve this and still keeping the support up as much as needed for this financially poor community.
In the meantime, however, the Kenyan school system has changed and all primary schools have to add secondary school as well. So we are challenged with continuing to build. We now need 2 more classrooms (rather quickly), before we can finally invest in a library. Secondary school means that we also need a laboratory and computer room. So the project has been enhanced a lot again and is stretching us. I am very grateful that Abel from Science Plus Group in The Netherlands has donated a significant amount of money towards the next building. We now need around 5500€ more to be able to start building. Can you help us with a donation? I am convinced that together we will manage to build and equip at least one classroom this year.
❤️Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️
in the name of our currently 130 students.
Love, Angela

Last Wednesday we celebrated our grade 6 students who are going to sit for the KEPSEA exams this year. The community, the elders and pastors came together to pray for their success. Afterwards there was a nice party for everyone.
We are very proud of our teachers who are preparing the students very well for this mile stone, as the exceptionally good results have proven last year.

To our grade 6 graduates: We wish you all the best and all the luck you need to achieve amazing results in your exams!

😀 Brick by brick we are progressing with every donation we receive.

Classroom no. 7, a big part of which has been financed by the donations from Science Plus Group and Abel Keuns family, is on the finishing line and we will be able to start using it by February.
Peter Gurmakh and JSM Builders did a great job, as you can see in the pictures.
Yogazentrum Mödling is contributing the furniture through donations collected by its members during the Christmas season. ❤️

On another note: we received the KEPSEA results of our 10 students who completed primary school end of November and they are really inspiring. All of them passed well, with a lot of Bs and even As in the main subjects English, Kiswahili and Maths. This proves that our teachers provide quality education.
We feel very blessed. ❤️🥰

Now it is time to collect for the salaries for 2025 for said teachers. Please be gracious and open your purse 🥰
In addition we need a fence for our veggie garden which is getting good care from our teacher Felix. Cost: 150€

A big Thank You! to all of my friends and contacts for your continued support. ❤️
Love, Angela

Happy Jamhuri Day to all our Kenyan friends and contacts!
We are progressing!

The construction of an additional classroom is under way at Kiranto's Sunshine Academy thanks to generous donations. The workers are not giving in, despite consistent heavy rainfall and a malaria break out in the area. If all goes well, we will have the floor base completed by mid next week.
To be ready to use this new classroom asap once completed, we still need the funds for the furniture. Per kid this is currently estimated at around 50-60 €

In addition it is time to also collect for the teacher salaries for the upcoming term.
Every €$AEDKES counts and we still do not deduct anything except for the bank transfer cost. Please support our projects 😀🫶🏻😘

We are celebrating!

Thanks to generous donations from Abel Keun and Science Plus Group (financing 80%) and Clemens Stieger, Dr. Eva-Marie Muller-Stuler, Barbara Stöttinger and Marilies Rumpold we could start the process of building another much needed classroom at Kiranto's Sunshine Academy. Construction will hopefully be completed by mid February. The contract includes guttering and a 5000 l watertank. The picture shows the area where the new building will be situated, behind Daniel and myself.
Now we still need the funds for furniture. The cost for a workplace (desk, chair, transport) is estimated at around 50-60€. We will need 20 of those. Who can help and chip in? ❤️

Have a wonderful 2nd Sunday of Advent!
Love, Angela

We are very excited!
Today for the first time 10 students of Kiranto's Sunshine started their KEPSEA exams with the Mathematics test. We are keeping all of our fingers and toes crossed for them to achieve good results. ❤️

We are currently in the process of completing the latrine building for the female teacher house.
The next important project is to build additional classrooms. We urgently need at least one, better 2. The cost for a classroom currently lies around 10 000 Euros. Please consider donating to our cause, so we can continue to complete the school.

While the kids were taking their exams, a clan of hyenas attacked the goats of the community and killed a few before they could be chased off. This reminds us why we are building this school: so the kids can start school at the regular age of 4 years safely. Before Kiranto's was founded, they could only start school when they were old enough to walk to the next school through the dangerous territory, which usually was at the age of 10 years.

Thank you all for supporting our efforts to keep the kids safe and educate them! ❤️🥰❤️

Daniel and Angela

Wir bitten um Hilfe für Kiranto’s Sunshine Academy!�

Gestern Nacht haben Elefanten unserem Gebiet einen Besuch abgestattet und dabei den Zaun der Schule stark demoliert. Das müssen wir rasch reparieren.�Zudem bitten die Lehrerinnen schon seit einiger Zeit um Latrine und Waschraum nahe an ihrem Lehrerinnen-Wohnhaus, da sie sich in der Dunkelheit wegen der wilden Tiere fürchten, auf die weit entfernte Toilette zu gehen. Nach dem Vorfall letzte Nacht, sind sie noch mehr verunsichert. Und wir wollen diese unglaublich bemühten Lehrkräfte nicht verlieren!��Ich bitte daher alle meine Freunde, Bekannten, Verwandten, Freunde von Kiranto’s Sunshine Academy und von skills4change, zu schauen, ob ihr ein wenig Geld für uns abzweigen könnt. Alle Spenden fließen direkt in die Schule.
�Vielen, vielen Dank euch allen schon im Voraus! ❤️❤️❤️
