The school was temporarily shut down in January 2004 because of student lawlessness and the invasion of another school. A subsequent inquiry found that corruption and prostitution were endemic in the school.[2]

"School is tough. When I was in school, I got picked on every day to the point where I did not want to go to school at all. I'd cry and pretend I was sick because I didn't want to go to school. At the end of the day, I didn't let it affect me. I did to a certain point, and then I stopped and I was such a better person. I grew into myself, and I found out who I was. I wasn't trying to be anybody else."

My advice for current Iona education students is to be like a sponge. Soak up all of the opportunities that Iona provides. Take advantage of all of the school placement opportunities and stay after the required hours if you can. The more observing you do, the more you are able to see different strategies and styles in practice. Over my years as a teacher, I have found that the key to a successful classroom is building relationships with students. Once students feel comfortable with you and they know that you care about them, they are willing to take academic risks.

A large part of our program focuses on service towards the community and interactions with the people of South Africa. We started our service at Bongo primary school where we met Vuyani and other members of a local food security and farming NGO. The first day of work consisted of surveying the land we were going to work with and manually pulling up all the grasses and roots that had collected as a result of the unused ground. As we worked, I thought about our place in the community as students from America performing service, especially since it happened to be Nelson Mandela Day. We were performing a task that local students and workers could have accomplished, and have been doing for decades, but we had the privileges of time, energy, physical health and transportation. We kept our particular circumstances in mind as we worked.

As we encountered various children at the primary school, we tried our best to earnestly reach out with the fragments of isiXhosa we had learned, and though we were met with politeness, there seemed to be a wall that prevented genuine connection. Which was understandable; this was their first day of school after winter break, we were outsiders, there was a language and cultural barrier. There was no reason for us to come in with expectations: these kids were people in their own right and not objects for us to use to satisfy an idea of virtuosity.

Bongos have gone through a drastic decline, with inferential data suggesting that there may be less than 100 individuals left in the wild. The BSP has identified small isolated groups of mountain bongo still surviving in the wild within four highland forests of Kenya, including Aberdare Forest, Mt Kenya Forest, Eburu Forest and Mau Forest.

Currently, BSP has installed 60 new cameras in the Eburu Forest, the smallest out of the five forests where bongos reside. Installing these cameras would give researchers a better understanding of how many bongo their actually are and how they interact with other species in the forest.

In 2002 Simone, from Switzerland and Tereza, from the Czech Republic met on a six-month volunteer program in Malawi for a charity supporting childhood education in rural areas. It was here they met Justin, a pre-school teacher for the charity, and student of Malawi University.

Shortly after, the Team were approached by people from Kantimbanya village (20 km from the Umodzi pre-school) asking for support for their four pre-schools which the villagers had started in 2002 but were being run under a tree. The Team agreed to cooperate and, supported by the Dutch embassy in Malawi, raised enough funds for a proper pre-school building called Mango, while the new teachers received training at the school in Juma.

The experience with the Kantimbanya villagers taught the Team an important lesson which was to fundamentally shape the direction of their involvement for the future. The Kantimbanya people had their own goal (four pre-schools) which they founded without external intervention and then kept pro-actively looking for support. While the people from the Juma village area were asked to participate on a project they had not initiated themselves, and subsequently it was difficult for them to develop a sense of ownership and active participation.

At around this time we began to make our own teaching materials in collaboration with local carpenters. This developed into a workshop that produced teaching aids for all our pre-schools. Link to Carpentry Program

In 2011, when monitoring performance of the children leaving pre-school, the Team discover how much lower the standard of teaching is within primary schools and the lack of teaching aids. As a reaction the Team consulted with the teachers of a school close to the childcare centre along with the local community resulting in the first Happy Classroom Project. This transformed bare classrooms into a curriculum based print-rich environment, giving the teachers and students a more stimulating and interactive learning and teaching experience.

In March 2021 construction finished on the Masuku Childcare Center. Thanks to a donation of USD 64,000, the Swiss Foundation enabled boNGO and the Kantimbanya community to construct a school with 2 classrooms, a kitchen, WC and a playground with a bore hole.

In 2021 our carpentry workshops expanded our range of innovative teaching aids. Originally set up to address the need for quality teaching materials for our schools where imported aids were too expensive or poor quality, we now sell teaching and learning materials to local schools, education centres and for private use, providing a growing source of revenue.

Then, once we had left the auditorium and finished up lunch from the school restaurant, it was time to form teams and head out to survey the campus for things such as building condition, street condition, etc. My group headed to our sector, Hillside, which included all of the buildings atop the hill on the northwest side of campus as well as those along the west side of the main campus road. Buildings were to be graded green, yellow, or red in regards to their condition, with green needing only minor renovation to keep and red buildings slated for priority demolition.

This continued till I got to Form 3 at Goo Junior High School (JHS). Thankfully, however, I was able to sit all examinations and I did quite well and was never demoted in school. So in 2014, I sat the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and had aggregate 13. Although that was not too good a grade, I was the best graduating student in my school. Aside that, I happened to be the best in the district as the general performance was poor in my district.


Having passed the BECE, I gained admission to Notre Dame Minor Seminary Senior High School, Navrongo, for my second cycle education in October 2014. I went through a great deal of trouble, wallowing in a solitary, depressing universe in my search for money to pay my school fees. Thankfully, my ever supportive cousin, Theresah Azure, gave me some money to pay my fees (which covered the most part of the school fees). This was supplemented by contributions from Mr. Moses Atengane, Mr. Francis Azubila, Mr. John Azorko, Mr. Samuel Akurigo and Mrs. Lamisi Asapeo (the mother of my age old friend, Daniel Abiliba) who contributed in both cash and kind to enable me go to Senior High School.

Then a teacher from my community, Mr. Moses Atengane, who had previously helped in paying my SHS admission fees, added 420 cedis so I could pay my residential fees.

When I was reporting to UG, I had nothing proper that I could wear. My dad gave me some of his long sleeved shirts. I alterated those and used same in my first year in UG. Luckily, when I entered UG, I was privileged to have met Prosper Batariwah who introduced me to Venny Quansah, who in turn introduced me to Mr. Seidu Agongo who has since then paid my school fees and assisted me with money for my feeding.

With the money earned, the twelve boys were able to attend boarding schools, which allowed them to keep out of trouble. Michael also hired a certified professional to educate the youth in the community on the perils of drug use, how to beat it and alternatives options for their lives. Lastly, he was able to pay teachers to act as tutors and help the boys with their full time transitions back into school.

Michael was inspired by ALA alumni Daniel Deng and Cyril Michino who attended the same school as he had. Wanting to venture out of the traditional Kenyan system which he felt groomed one for individual success and excellence, Michael applied to ALA so he could be empowered to help others as well. He was also excited to meet and be inspired by similarly ambitious peers and expand on his options and possibilities for university.

The Bongo Surveillance Project Team have completed an extensive tracking programme in the Aberdares and Mt Kenya. During this process the team have successfully collected Bongo dung for DNA analysis. This has formed the basis of some most valuable evidence. In addition camera trap records have also provided visual records of the remaining bongo and their locations. ff782bc1db
