Our afternoon is spent strolling around the school and learning more about the amazing operation. Joska is essentially a boarding school for older students (5th-12th grade, US equivalent). It opened with 50 students in 2009, nearly 200 will graduate from primary and move into high school in 2012.
It's in the country outside of Nairobi and far from the dense urban life where these children have spent their entire childhood. There is space and fresh air!
The students are free, alive and full of energy and life! They had soccer, volleyball and open, clean space to run.
So wonderful to see kids being kids!
