Angaza Academy

holding a hand, developing your potential

Quality education for vulnerable children. .

We believe that every child has a right of a good education, as well to have free access to clean water and sanitations. We want to see children in Mwatate, regardless of gender, tribe, religion, or financial circumstances, fulfilling their natural given potential. We believe that full-curriculum education, combined with promotion of social competences and environmental awareness, can play a major part in that.

    Our first graduation in history

    How time flies ! Our learners were graduating from PP 2 to grade one next year. On their great day we invited officials and head teachers from different schools. The kids got there certificates and we had gifts for the learners. Our director and founder Gabriel Mwabili rewarded the most deciplined student in the school this year.

    On the other hand the construction of the school goes on. The next two classrooms are almost ready. Also we established a farming project with trees, mais and tomatoes. To keep it alive, we installed two water tanks. While this resource must be brought by a transporter from far and because it is so expensive, we have to keep the farm small (but well). We teach our kids the value of water and let the project grow slowly.

    Here you find some impressions from summer until now.

    Angaza Academy is now closed for holidays until January 2024.

    the progress so far.

    After installing a solar system and window glasses in the first two classes, we started to build the next building.

    In the center of the new classrooms will be a movable door to separate, if its needed to have a hall.

    If you visit us here or live you will get the latest updates.

    Asante sana ! to our friends in Schwerin, Germany, Heiko Höcker and his family. They organized a festival for our school in April which brought us most of the money for that what you see in this gallery.

    Structure of a Vision

    Gabriel Mwabili the founder of ANGAZA CBO started to build this school in his home area Taita Taveta County.

    Impressed by the poverty and the peoples poor life in that region, he decided to help. Without any sponsors or big money he started in October 22. He financed it only with his salary, which he gets as the coordinator for a german foundation in Kenya.

    The first students where there in January 2023 and now the construction of the next three classrooms should start. The movie introduces Gabriel and his visions. It also shows the construction. It was made for a welfare concert in Schwerin/Germany in April 23.

  • develop your potential ! the school.

    In September 2022 Gabriel Mwabili decided to build a primary school, located in his rural home area. According to the mission he wants to give quality education and power to the community.

    With help from friends allover three classrooms were ready in January 2023, so that the first pupils can start their lessons in PP1, PP2 and Grade 1. Angaza Academy should grow and needs more classes up to Grade 8 in the near future.

    Also it is planned to build a library, as well as home science room, agriculture room, music room, art and craft room, computer room and a sports room.

  • education is power ! the mission.

    The public school system in Kenya can not guarantee every child a good education. Primary schools are currently very poor resourced and often have class sizes up to 70. Teaching is from the front, questioning is discouraged and the application of lessons learnt is omitted. Children are taught in order for them to pass the exams, not in a way that equips them for life. Most of them don’t even come to that point. 

    The new launched Competency Based Curriculum offers them a chance.

    “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

    —Nelson Mandela

    We started working in Mwatate with the mission statement: „Serving vulnerable children living here by giving them opportunities to develop their full potential“. ANGAZA ACADEMY wants to provide quality education, social and life skills to the most needy ones.

    We believe in peoples power and the community and like to grow together by empowering them. ANGAZA has ready resources in terms of a qualified and accredited Directors, personnel and land. It is respected, embraced within the local community and has already relationships with many of the vulnerable children the school will target.
