" /> David @ KKF – Kanzi-Kibera Friends

Cyprian Yobera recently spent the morning at a fundraiser sports day at Lady Barn House School, Cheadle. The money raised will go towards Kanzi Kibera Friends which the school has chosen as their partnership charity. This partnership has started in a very special year in the school’s history; the school is celebrating its 150th anniversary.
Cyprian, together with some of the children, had the privilege of being given exercise instructions by British Olympic swimming star, Lauren Quigley.

All the 4 Kanzi linked schools have started teaching this new curriculum. Only Gifted Hands has a class in the final year so they are still doing the old 844 curriculum. The final KCPE examination will be at the end of 2022.
