Mahundi Primary School

In February 2009, NTC welcomed Mahundi Primary School into the NTC family when students and teachers at Mason-Rice Elementary School and Oak Hill Middle School became interested in conducting cultural exchange projects similar to those taking place between Newton’s high schools and Kwala Secondary School.

Subjects taught are Kiswahili, geography, civics, science, mathematics, history, English, and life skills. The school also fields a soccer team, which competes against other teams in the region.

Mahundi’s headmaster, Mr. Gunda, has been the headmaster at Mahundi Primary School for more than five years. Many of the students attending Kwala Secondary School have graduated from Mahundi Primary School. The school is one of five primary schools in Kwala Ward, all of which feed into Kwala Secondary School.
