Wangu Primary

Wangu Primary School is a public, mixed-gender day school situated in Nairobi’s Dandora Phase 2 area, serving a large student body of approximately 1,700 pupils. Established in the late 1980s, the institution has grown into a significant educational hub within the Embakasi South constituency, supported by a modern campus featuring 36 classrooms, an administration block, and a multipurpose hall funded through partnerships like the Kenya Education Program. The school is recognized for its commitment to holistic development, offering a curriculum that blends academic rigor with vibrant co-curricular activities, including a particularly successful music department that has represented the region at national festivals as recently as 2025. To support its learners’ well-being and attendance, Wangu Primary participates in the “Dishi na County” school feeding program, providing daily nutritious meals for a subsidized fee of Ksh 5, while also benefiting from community-driven initiatives like the KRA Book Drive and environmental tree-planting exercises. Through its active alumni network and dedicated teaching staff, the school continues to foster an environment focused on character building and social empowerment for the youth of Dandora.
