It is my pleasure to welcome you to St. Lucy School for the Blind, where we strive to create an environment that empowers, nurtures, and inspires. For over 60 years, our school has been dedicated to supporting visually impaired students as they grow into confident, capable individuals ready to make meaningful contributions to their communities.
At St. Lucy, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to realize their full potential. We offer not only a robust academic curriculum but also life skills training, vocational programs, and recreational activities—all carefully designed to meet the unique needs of our students. We pride ourselves on being a close-knit community where each student is encouraged to thrive, discover their talents, and pursue their dreams.
Our mission extends beyond education; it is about building confidence, independence, and resilience. I invite you to explore our website, learn more about our programs, and discover the inspiring stories of our students and alumni. Together, we can continue to create a brighter, more inclusive future for our visually impaired youth. Thank you for your interest and support in St. Lucy School for the Blind.
We understand that education wipes the physical blindness and replace it with intellectual sight.
Knowledge is Sight.
To prepare pupils to have faith and courage in themselves to be able to compete equally with others in the society.
The pupils should be able to love themselves and extend their love to others by being of service to the society.
St. Lucy school for the blind was founded in 1958 in response to the survey which had been carried out by Kenya Society for the Blind which had brought to light the fact that there were many Blind people in the Eastern Region of Kenya. It started with only 7 boys who were to be rehabilitated to become self reliant. After a period of two years, the rehabilitation centre was changed to a primary school for the visually impaired. The nursing of the young institution was entrusted to the hands of consolata catholic missionaries of the Diocess of Meru who handed it over to the Franciscan sisters of St. Joseph in 1987. The sisters have indeed struggled to make sure that it grows to the present status of 260 pupils.
Currently the school has 6 sections.
We believe every child deserves a better future, no matter their physical inability.
