MWANGAZA CENTRE
 

MWANGAZA  is a coeducational diocesan Catholic skills formation centre of the Diocese of Nakuru. It adheres to the philosophy that education is one of the most important ways by which the Church fulfills its commitment to the dignity of the person. A key responsibility is that of providing a positive environment that offers experiences which are both spiritual and academic, theoretical and practical. Here people can develop unique talents and leadership potential. Mwangaza seeks to serve the community in presenting a challenging atmosphere toward the attainment of a comprehensive training for life.

Mwangaza draws its uniqueness from educational philosophy of St. John Baptist De La Salle which echoes  the thre interlocking dimensions of the Church's mission: First, education is a ministry - ones personal commitment for spiritual and vocational formation is a means of living a Christ-centered life. Second, members of the Mwangaza Community come together in an association based on a common acceptance of Gospel values in their lives of those they touch. Third, the experience of community leads to service.

A common vision shared by the Catholi Church and Mwangaza is the importance of religious instructions, vocational training and cultural development of those whom it serves.
