K.U.P Model Schools - Rweya Primary School

Country: Kenya

Description:

Rweya Primary School is located in Kisumu County, within the Kano Plains area. The surrounding area is predominantly rural, with agriculture as the primary economic activity and minimal industrial development. In response to the frequent flooding, the design elevates the structures by at least one and a half foot, after raising the general ground level a foot above the road level.

The court design of the classrooms maximizes the use of the available plot, leaving ample space for playing fields and an attached ECDE section. All existing indigenous trees were preserved to maintain the continuity of the school's natural ambiance. The existing classrooms and other buildingĀ  structures were all derelict and uninhabitable and therefore were condemned by County Government of Kisumu.
