Mathatani Secondary School
Location: Mua Hills, Mathatani location, Lukenya Zone, Machakos County, Kenya
The school started in 2010 and has a population of 123 students.
Amara started working with this school in 2017 because there is potential for growth in student population and that there is no secondary school nearby.
Since Amara's involvement the student population has risen by 86 students which adds to 209 students in 2021.
Amara has assisted with:
- Assorted reference books and curriculum text books
- Sanitary towels
- A library in February 2018
- Plans of setting up of a vegetable garden and encourage students to plant trees in 2018
- Construction of a girls' and a boys' dormitory with wash rooms in March 2018
