Kiwumu Public Primary School was started by 4 volunteers in 1998 as a private school with an aim of providing education opportunities to the disadvantaged, orphaned,children from financially strained homes and the young ones who could not walk to distant schools daily.It was registered by the Ministry of Education the same year.We started with 23 children and currently enrollment has risen to 1,258 pupils.This increase in population has culminated into limited space for classes,library and recreation.The school is based on Christian faith pillars and dispensing both primary and vocation education.
