Kahuhia Girls High School requires huge financial resources to upgrade its old and dilapidated physical facilities to enable the premier institution to bounce back as a centre of learning excellence.
According to Board of Management (BOM) Chairman, Prof. Muragu Kinandu, the school’s teaching and accommodation facilities are dilapidated.
The facilities were established over a hundred years ago by Anglican Church missionaries who set up the institution to provide early education to African children in the country.
Prof. Muragu observed that the girls school urgently needs new laboratories, classrooms, library, teachers’ houses, dormitories and ICT facilities to cope with the increasing number of students.
He said the facilities have been over stretched since the debut of free secondary education.
Speaking during a Prize Giving Day, the Transport and Infrastructures Cabinet Secretary James Macharia said the national government will support the school in establishing some of the required facilities.
