At Ododuma, we believe that for a child to excel academically, they must first be prepared physically and emotionally. It is not enough to simply teach in a classroom; we strive to create a safe space that nurtures students into healthy, proactive adults.
On Saturday, 25th October 2025, our school premises were transformed into a medical clinic. The day began with a collective clean-up of the environment, teaching the students the value of cleanliness before the medical team arrived. Led by three doctors and our school nurse, the exercise focused on assessing the general health of our students and providing necessary medical attention.
During the session, 33 students were examined, including those from the surrounding community. While the exercise was a success, it highlighted critical areas where our children need further support, particularly in dental hygiene, nutrition, and eye health. We also identified several students who require specialized follow-up.
By identifying these needs early, we are doing more than just conducting check-ups; we are showing up for our children and their health in holistic way . Seeing them as more than just academic students reflects their value and our commitment to them.
