IItolish Mara Primary School was established in 2007. Iltolish community came together to build the first classrooms and teachers’ accommodation that would create a primary school for their children. There are currently a few water tanks in the school that collect rain water. However, they are not sufficient and they still need more water tanks and gutters to help harvest more rain.
Africa Foundation has identified numerous sites to install water tanks which we are raising funds for, such as the dining area, the girl’s dormitory, the boy’s dormitory and teachers’ accommodation. We are also raising funds for a water trailer to transport water to the school should their be insufficient amounts of rain water to harvest.
Africa Foundation have been working with the school since 2017. Iltolish Mara Primary school quickly grew and as it expanded, space became an issue, and some classes were taught out of the local church. Africa Foundation was approached by the community for assistance and with the help of generous donations, we have been able to build 11 classrooms, two dormitories one for boys and the other for girls accommodating 96 students, a kitchen and dining hall, and two blocks of teacher’s accommodation.
The school provides primary education to 383 boy and 385 girl scholars, 18 teachers and 5 supportive staff at the school. It is rated as one of the top schools in Narok County, reflecting the commitment of the scholars and the teachers to securing and delivering the best possible education.
