“THE PRINCIPALS MESSAGE old

I am delighted to have the opportunity to welcome you to Mwenje High School, website. We hope to give you a flavour of the school and all that it offers our children.

Mwenje High School, is a Catholic Sponserd secondary school. . Mwenje High school has a long-established history of preparing its students for the challenges of university and life beyond formal education.

I have always strongly believed that having the opportunity to educate other people’s children is a rare privilege that brings with it a responsibility to provide the best all-round education that prepares our students for the challenges of an ever-changing world. Mwenje High School sets very exacting standards and the expectations of our students is purposefully high.

Our students are taught to believe in themselves, be inquisitive, robust, and to be aspiring. We praise high-achievers in any aspect of their life, whether it is in the classroom or on the sports field. Mwenje High School is purposefully small as we value community. We are a genuine multi-faith and multi-racial school where the students respect each other and value the differences that contribute to our unique society.

I hope you will take the time to visit the school so that you can see first-hand why we have a reputation as one of the most beautiful and well-equipped schools in Laikipia County. I am confident that you will sense our commitment to providing a rigorous approach to learning and a sensitive and caring provision of services. We want to encourage our young men and women to grow in depth and think beyond themselves and begin their development to becoming hard-working and honourable members of our society.

“If it is to be it is up to me and success is not for the chosen few it is for the few who have chosen”

When it comes to succeeding in life there are three basics mindsets that people tend to have. These are the win/lose mentality, the lose/lose mentality, and the win/win mentality. People with a win/lose mentality would be those that compare themselves to other people all the time. They believe that in order for them to succeed others must fail. To them, success is relative. 

Those with a lose/lose mentality believe that they can never achieve anything worthwhile so why should they let you do so. They try to keep other people in the sinking boat that they are in, they suffer from pulling other people down syndrome. Negativity is the order of the day for them. Don’t ever try to tell such people that you have great plans for your life – they will only criticize you and tell you it can’t be done. After all, they tried that already and it did not work!   Dreamers, who are achievers, have the win/win mentality.

Not only do they know that they are capable of and will succeed, but they realize that their success does not depend on other people’s failure. On the contrary, their success depends on other people’s success. They believe in team dynamism and draw their synergy from their teammates.
