Jariah Education Centre

Jariah Education Centre is partnered with St Michael’s Primary School in the ACT. The school was started by Jackson Onyonka because he saw a need for local children to have easier access to school, rather than having to walk a long distance. The school is in rural and remote area, a long way from other infrastructure. The land is fertile, and many local people are subsistence farmers. Due to HIVAIDS many students are orphans or partial orphans (where one parent has died).
The school commenced in 2010 and has shown a steady improvement.

Jackson Onyonka is a teacher and still teachers in a government school to support his family and help fund Jariah Education Centre.
“I wanted to help the local community by providing the children a quality education close to home” Jackson – Director Jariah Education Centre
