When you visit Adonai Junior Primary School, you can’t help but think it’s like any other school around the world. The children study Math, History, Science, and English. They learn to read and write and to socialize with their peers. They learn some disciplines, but they also run and play. They enter sports competitions and have assemblies. At Christmastime they have a concert and celebrate with singing, games, and treats.

We do our best to ensure that our talented students have the opportunity to continue their education at the next level. We currently pay school fees and expenses for 110 secondary or vocational students, on top of the 335 children directly at school at Adonai, with the support of sponsors from around the world. Since it is hard to find references and scholastic material, the teachers at Adonai are very creative with their teaching styles. They are very passionate about their work and find that the unique environment and motivated students inspire them to do their best. Teachers also engage in co-curricular activities, training the students in the Music, Dance and Drama program, Physical Education, Crafting, Painting, and farming to ensure that the students can build up these other skills.
