Winslowkids Education center Emerges the best pre-school in the community!


The day started with a very tight schedule for pre-schools here at Gachie, Nairobi Kenya! Something unusual lay ahead of the many children. An expectation. Parents/guardians accompanying their children to public schools for interviews that would see some of them getting accepted in government primary schools to be part of the beneficiaries of the free primary education program that is offered by the Kenya government.

For your information, Early childhood is so expensive in this Gachie village like many of the villages in the country as they are run privately. Considering the economic struggle in the villages, many parents opt for the government primary schools once the children have the qualifications.

With the Winslow kids education center, I got the opportunity too to experience again this time about what goes on during the interviews. In total, 176 children were able to attend today's interview in Kamuiru Primary school here at Gachie. Except the Winslow kids education center, all other pre schools are privately owned and charge fees that many villagers cannot afford.

In all God is merciful and Gracious! The Winslow kids center that has no facility performed so good that it emerged the best of all the academies that participated. The picture uploaded here bears the subject performance of one of the children from the center. He is an orphan.

Ladies and Gentlemen who value education, these children from the Winslow education center have gone through hardships for the time we have been together. They hardly have a meal for lunch and even we thank God friends of goodwill provided a uniform for these kids! In spite of all these hardships, they have really managed the interview.

For now, they are facing another challenge of acquiring a school uniform for the new school they are set to join next year.

Finally, the teachers need sponsorship for their salary allowances for the previous sponsor is unable to continue supporting them due to financial lack!
Keep these children in prayers!!
