Academics

Learning that starts small and grows strong

Four stages of learning under the Competency Based Curriculum, taught by teachers who know every learner by name.

Beyond the classroom

Where lessons meet real life

Some of the most important learning at Lokiriama happens outside the timetable — on the grounds, at the chess board, on skates, and in the middle of a half-built project.

Hands-on outdoor projects

Learning moves outside regularly. Our grounds become the classroom for practical activities, group challenges and discovery that make lessons stick.

  • Learners holding up their outdoor artwork in front of the school block

Co-curricular activities

Chess sharpens strategy and patience, skating builds balance and courage, and our sports and journalism club give every learner somewhere to shine beyond the desk.

  • Learners playing chess
  • Learners skating at school
  • Learners taking part in school sports
  • Members of the school journalism club

KNEC projects

Our junior secondary learners plan, build and present KNEC project work — designing, measuring and problem-solving together to turn classroom theory into something real.

  • Junior secondary learners building a project frame together
  • Learners working on a KNEC project
  • Learners assembling project materials
  • Completed junior secondary project work

Career days

Professionals from the community — engineers, chefs, lawyers and more — spend the day with our learners, showing them what their studies can grow into.

  • An engineer speaking to learners on career day
  • A chef demonstrating to learners on career day
  • Learners dressed as lawyers on career day
