Kosgei, Let me try and respond to your issues:
- Wikipedia for schools is not specifically tailored for Kenya,its and International selection of articles - we hope that the articles will find some relevance to local curricula though not exhaustively - that students can use the selection to bridge the constraint of internet in researching for various issues - it will also serve to broaden the students perspective of knowledge,i.e.they will appreciate what other international students go through and also let them learn new things. - Swahili as a subject taught in schools is not yet included in the Wikipedian for schools,perhaps we hope or will rise the issue to have some Swahili articles be included in the next release.
I hope I have responded to some of your queries well.If not,feel free to get in touch.and we are still awaiting your plans and budget for Kakamega as Alex suggested.we will be discussing it in our Saturday meetup.
Cheers,

Hi guys, Earlier this week I sent you a report about our trip to Nakuru schools.I am concerned that I have not seen anybody react to the recommendations put forward by the schools we went. There were major points raised by teachers especially concerning sciences and also the missing swahili. Whats your take and how do you plan to address that? I wanna hear from abbas,oscar alex and the others. Btw way am I the only one noticing an issue of gender imbalance? Or is it that the ladies in our team are not active -- Isaac K. Kosgei.
