This is the current kitchen at the Kiahuko Primary School for the 487 students.
This is the inside of the kitchen and the saint-of-a-woman who cooks a midday meal for all of the students and staff.
The children line up for their daily meal of githeri (maize, beans, and onions).

Gravel, sand, and rocks will be used for the foundation.
