Facilities
Of particular significance is the brass band which has had a tradition in the school since the founding missionaries. The band has earned numerous national and international awards although struggles always with a lack of instruments. Challenges faced by the school are the lack of sufficient toilets to cater for the large number of pupils, furniture for the library and computers.
