CITAM WOODLEY SCHOOL <strong>REPORT</strong><br />

Play is an integral part of child learning. Research<br />

has shown that schools with sufficient play facilities<br />

and activities have produced better all-round learners<br />

especially in the early years. As a learning institution,<br />

we have embraced this concept and enhanced the<br />

wonderful world of pupils. CITAM Schools- Woodley<br />

is a colourful, playful, learning and fun world. We<br />

play, learn and grow in tandem with our mission,<br />

“Educating the whole person.”<br />

Music and Drama<br />

Keeping abreast with the current trends in<br />

education, the school has continued to excel in<br />

co-curricular activities. CITAM Schools- Woodley<br />

is still consistent in participating in the annual<br />

Kenya Music Festivals, where each year we get<br />

to the National Level. Our school participated in<br />

the <strong>2015</strong> Kenya Music Festivals; Nationals held<br />

at CITAM Schools- Kisumu. We entered three<br />

special Classes; the Ballet, the Senior Girls<br />

and Junior Choirs scooping 3rd, 2nd and 5th<br />

positions respectively out of over 40 entrants in<br />

each category and received presidential award<br />

certificates. These items were showcased during<br />

school functions and parents were thrilled with the<br />

high level of talent and creativity exposed. To this<br />

we give God all the glory!<br />

Art Club<br />

Participated in the Japan Embassy sponsored<br />

Kite festival late last year and featured in the Daily<br />

Newspaper for their outstanding gifting and talent.<br />

Locally, the Art Club Members in liaison with Juhudi<br />

Kenya Children Club participated in the land mark<br />

launch of Phase Two Tile Mosaic project at the<br />

Kenyatta National Hospital. Their work has been<br />

displayed at KNH to light up the world of the patients.<br />

Giving to the Community<br />

In a bid to give back to the community as articulated<br />

in our CITAM Core Values, the school participated in<br />

the <strong>2015</strong> Run for the Bible-less in conjunction with<br />

the Bible Translation and Literacy (BTL). A total of<br />

Ksh.81, 400 was realized. We thank all the parents<br />

for their relentless support.<br />

Spiritual Development<br />

We are grateful to God because of the 12 pupils who<br />

went through the waters of baptism at the end of the<br />

year and those who gave their lives to Jesus Christ<br />

and committed themselves to the study of scripture<br />

and prayer.<br />

Appreciation<br />

I now take this opportunity to thank God who made<br />

all things possible. I thank CITAM for a Vision and<br />

Mission well thought. Appreciation also goes to the<br />

outgoing Acting Principal Mr. J. Mukoro and the<br />

Senior Teacher Mr. N. Luvembe, pupils, parents,<br />

teachers and all staff for their overwhelming and<br />

continued support to the institution and for a job well<br />

done. Most importantly are the <strong>2015</strong> candidates<br />

who worked tirelessly throughout the year to realise<br />

good results.<br />

Way Forward<br />

Our theme for 2016 is, “Behold an open door”<br />

drawn from Rev. 3:8. We pray that God will enable<br />

us to exploit the numerous open opportunities and<br />

transformation in the various dimensions of CITAM<br />

Schools-Woodley. In the spirit of our motto, “We are<br />

pressing on towards the mark!” Phil 3:14<br />

To God be the Glory!<br />
