Science Lab for Olchoro Lemayian Junior Secondary

n the remote Ololasurai Valley of the Maasai Mara, more than 140 children from the local Maasai community now have access to primary education at Olchoro Lemayian Primary School. The school is now ready for its next and most important step: establishing Junior Secondary Education (Grades 7–9) within the community.

This transition is essential to ensure that children can continue their education close to home. Without Junior Secondary, many families would have to send their children to distant schools or face boarding costs they cannot afford, with girls particularly vulnerable to dropping out.

To open Junior Secondary in January 2027, a science laboratory is one of the most essential facilities needed. Integrated Science is a core part of the JSS curriculum, and students need a place where they can learn through practice — experimenting, observing, investigating and developing their curiosity and problem-solving skills.

We therefore want to build and equip a complete science laboratory, giving students the opportunity to receive practical, quality science education from Grade 7 onwards.

Your contribution will help fund:

• 🏗️ Laboratory building construction
• 🔬 Laboratory interior construction and furniture
• 🧪 Science equipment and practical learning materials

Every contribution, large or small, brings us closer to making this laboratory a reality and ensuring that the children of Olchoro Lemayian can continue their education beyond Grade 6.

Help us turn an empty space into a place where curiosity becomes knowledge and opportunity becomes a future.
