September 2022.
During our visit Esther discussed guidance and counselling topics with the children in Standards 6,7, and 8.
Several youth and adults with disability were also visited; It was good to see Rose with her Epilepsy well controlled and attending a church event. Mike, paralyzed by tuberculosis of the spine, was cheerful mobilized in the wheelchair we provided, his bedsores healed. Mzee, who is blind, is getting very frail. Mary is bright and cheerful, happy in her community. Sadly Vincent is currently unable to attend school, due to repeated chest infections. We arranged for him to take exams at home, and for him to have a mobile phone, keeping in touch with friends and developing a photographic interest.
Jacinta then joined the group of mothers holding a Self-help group meeting. She shared in Kimaasai the benefits of joining together, ways to develop going forward, they sang and danced, shared tea and mandazi, chose the Chairman, secretary and treasurer, then planned to legally register the group. With strength in numbers, good accounting and record keeping, they will qualify for project start-up support.

September 2022.
The Steering team visited Nkuruman to review the developments in the Special need Boarding school, the community, and the Mother's self-help group.
The children were delighted to see us, we shared a tea party, games and football. Next morning the children were in uniform for classes, while some are integrated in the regular Nursery and Primary classes.
The new classroom we have built this year is complete, awaiting delivery of the furnishing for the new term starting 26th September.
Prayers of Blessing and Worship were held there, led by the school Pastor.

February 2022.
The Seurr Sang'ida trust are building a dedicated classroom for children with special needs and unable to attend main school. Currently the boarding dayroom is being used. The classroom will enable the registration as a Special school, hopefully some goverment funding, and be in a separate but adjacent compound and develop a sport's area.
Roofing, plastering, completed. Doors and Windows going in. Next term tiling, ceiling and painting will happen. Then for furnishing and equipping! Thank you immensely to all who have contributed to bringing the Trust Vision thus far. Our vision continues to expand!

Nkaisery 7years, unfortunately played so much she broke her false limb and has to be carried to school. The difficult terrains means she can't use her 'walker'. The limb has gone to Kilabe hospital for reconstruction.
Zakayo (22) who entered the only National Secondary School for the Deaf in Kenya has left after one year, too unhappy there. He will help teach 4 children in our unit Kenya sign language, continue mechanic repair on motorbikes, and we are sourcing a technicsl mechanical training for him.
