UZALENDO SECONDARY SCHOOL’S BRIEF HISTORY
Uzalendo School is a public mixed and boarding secondary school modeled along Strarehe Boys Centre which was started in 2015 to help the bright and needy students to access quality education.
The idea to start Uzalendo School was conceived by Eldama Ravine Education Foundation (EREF) officials led by the area Member of Parliament Moses Lessonet in 2014.
During his first term in office as an MP, Hon Lessonet discovered that students who receive bursary from funds like Constituency Development Fund (CDF) end up dropping out of school since the bursary is not enough to cater for school fees.
As of 2015, the foundation, which offered scholarships to students drawn from needy backgrounds, had about 60 students in secondary school and the total amount of school fees was ballooning; numbers that could not be manageable in the future.
This problem inspired him and his committee at EREF to come up with a comprehensive plan to start Uzalendo School whose launch and groundbreaking ceremony was done at Eldama Ravine FTC grounds on July 19, 2015; an event that was presided over by National Assembly Speaker Joseph Muturi.
Through the area MP’s mobilization of funds, the Government of Kenya gave a Sh20 Million donation that was used to construct four classes, two dormitories – 124 capacity each and one science laboratory.
The school now has a population of 300 and an overall capacity of 496. Of the 300 student population, 211 are on full scholarship.
Uzalendo School will have its first candidate class of 59 students (35 of them being on the full EREF scholarship) sit for Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination later this year.
MP Moses Lessonet, who is also the patron of the school, says he is confident that the candidates will perform well and the excellent results posted by the school will be an important milestone towards making the institution self sustaining.
