Mountain View Primary School – 2024 Visit
On 19th July 2024, Travel Affairs visited Mountain View Primary School in Machakos together with Amara
Charitable Trust.
The school is located in Lukenya, Machakos County in Kenya. It started in 2012 with one teacher and 40
students studying under a tree. Currently, the student population has increased to 225 students and 11
teachers.
We handed over a newly constructed kitchen, 8 transformed classrooms, new desks and a refurbished
open-air hall to the school. Travel Affairs also distributed biscuits and apples to the grateful children and
staff. They were also provided a special lunch.
The children were so happy and they entertained us with poems and songs as they eagerly embraced
their enhanced learning environments.
The smile on their faces was a joy to behold
