St. Lawrence Students Visit Red Rose School

Students from St. Lawrence University visited Red Rose Centre this week to learn more about the school and meet the children. St. Lawrence is particularly significant to the Children of Kibera Foundation since our founder, Ken Okoth, earned a scholarship to study there. The group of students are on the Kenya Semester Program (KSP). Together they are working on a variety of academic majors such as History, Biology, English, Psychology, Gender Studies, Politics, Economics, Art, and Environmental Conservation.

The St. Lawrence students were split up into different Red Rose classes to mingle with pupils and learn more from each other. Red Rose students learned about American Geography, Food Production, Housing, Religion, and Culture from their new St. Lawrence friends. We hope to see the St. Lawrence students again!


'Teacher PJ' took right off where Class 6's teacher left off and read the students a chapter from Charlotte's Web. Below: Students enjoy their visit to Red Rose.
