Diana Odoyo : nursery & Pre-Primary HeadTeacher

Daina Odoyo was one of the original founding members of CGA. In 1997 when the school was starting, Daina left a good job to help with the pioneering effort of creating a school for orphans in Mbita. She was on the original planning committee and also became the first Nursery class teacher (Pre-school). Today she is the Head Mistress for the Nursery and Pre-Primary section of CGA. Every young child who has entered CGA in the Nursery class has passed through her hands. Daina’s husband, Peter Odoyo, passed away from cancer in 2012 which left Daina as a widow caring for her 4 children; Beatrice, Benjamin, Perpetua and Miracle. Diana provides a motherly influence and cares for each and every child. Her patience and love make the new students (as young as 4 years old) feel comfortable and welcomed so that they learn to love coming to school.

Francis & esther ojal : Campus Ministers

Francis and Esther’s came to CGA in January of 2020. Their initial work as Secondary and Post-Secondary Coordinators has been a great enhancement to CGA.

They organize the scripture theme and focus for each school term, as well as the classroom daily devotional time.
