Here’s where you’ll catch the latest updates, stories, and sneak peeks into life at school. From classroom buzz to team highlights, we’ll be sharing news, events, and everything in between—right here.
JUNE 2025 UPDATE by John Brooker
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
– Nelson Mandela
Over the past 29 years, nearly 1,000 children have completed their primary education at Mikoroshoni. Fourteen have gone on to university, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and the unwavering dedication of our team. These aren’t just statistics; they’re stories of transformation.
📚 Facing New Challenges
A recent government policy now requires costly annual re-registration and renovations at all private schools. For Mikoroshoni, this includes building 10 new toilets (£2,750), replacing metal grills with wooden shutters, and repainting the school.
❗ Without these upgrades, we risk being shut down, even though we offer free education to children who need it most.

🌟 Thank You to The Twinkle Project
The Threapwood Guides from Staffordshire brought energy, creativity, and compassion, transforming classrooms, painting murals, building a wellness room, and funding repairs to protect against heavy rains. Their work has left a lasting mark.
💬 Full Circle: A Student Gives Back
Emmanuel, our first UK-sponsored student, is now paying it forward. He’s funding Trisha’s education after she lost both parents—a beautiful testament to how one act of kindness can inspire another.
🙏 Transitions & Opportunities
We thank Keith for 18 years as Treasurer and welcome Evelyn to the role. If you’re finance-savvy and passionate about education, we’d love to welcome you to our close-knit team.
Together, we’re building more than a school—we’re building futures.
