JOURNALISM CLUB.

Journalism club is a recently founded club in the school. It consists of about fifteen

students who are the pioneers of the club. With the increasing number of current

events and the easy accessibility of information from the various resources supplied in

the school, the future journalists compile reports ranging from educative,

entertainment and relaxation.

Environmental club

This is a club that consists of people passionate about the environment and all its

entails. Each year, it comes up with a new theme or subject matter to tackle.

This year’s theme is THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHALLENGE. The club looked at

the use of plastic bags sustainably to tackle the possible local causes of climate

change.

The club is actively involved in sharing ideas with not only the young people but also

the old in making the environment better.

Unique and one of its kind, the club is determined to remind people to embrace their

mother language Kiswahili. A few passionate young girls have discovered the

inability of most students, though fluent in English and other languages, to effectively

communicate grammatically correct Kiswahili. We have taken it into our stride to

encourage them to speak Kiswahili on specific days in school i.e. Monday and

Wednesday.

It is our motive that the positive minded students will by the end of the year have

improved their communication skills and vocabulary in the language through their

own efforts.

today's youth is great, despite the social or economic background. It is with this in

into the society, and not only the Catholic, as was previosly the case. All members of

the school community therefore belong to this society and are welcome despite their

religious affiliations. POLITICAL STRUCTUREThe society has a committed

patron Sr. King'ori, through whom any guidance, help or support is very readily

available for each student. The society also has a committee in place for smooth

running of activities with annual elections, held to freshen ideas. This committee

assists in leading in events, organisation and development of creativity in these
