A word from our director

Message from the Director

At Plainsview Academy, our commitment is anchored in our motto, Learn to Live, Live to Excel, and in our dedication to a truly holistic environment where every child grows physically, psychologically and emotionally.

Leading this school has never been about holding a title. It has always been about carrying our shared dreams with grace, love and heart. I serve not only as an educator and director, but as a mother figure to our learners.

Learn to live, live to excel

Watching our learners grow fills my heart with immense pride. Class after class, they turn ordinary school days into an unforgettable journey of camaraderie, growth and endless laughter.

We marvel at the talent that blossoms here: Alpha Okumu, who plays for Kenya's Under-15 Harambee Stars; Winnie Kaburo, one of the top three Chess Kenya Juniors who competed at the World School Chess Championship 2022 in Panama; and Shem Mali, a rising star in chess.

Our mission is to help every learner discover talents they never knew they possessed. Whether excelling academically, mastering sports like football and chess, bringing stories to life on stage, or learning unforgettable lessons filled with laughter, Plainsview opens many doors to success.

To our wonderful parents: thank you for your unwavering partnership, and for recognising how crucial it is to stay present in your children's lives. Your presence, love and dedication foster a spirit of resilience, brotherhood and growth that anchors our learners for life.

To our learners: work hard, stay dedicated, revise thoroughly, and above all put God first in everything you do, because success without God is impossible. Thank you for allowing us to share in your journey. Walk with warmth, courage and excellence, and keep reaching for the skies.

With all my love and prayers,
Tr. Vicky
Director, Plainsview Academy
