About our school

A home where deaf children are seen, heard and loved.

Tucked near Ringa town in Nyanza Province, Immanuel was founded to answer a quiet ache: too many deaf children in rural Kenya were growing up without language, schooling or community. We exist to change that — through Christ-centred, fully inclusive education taught in Kenyan Sign Language.

  • Christ-centred values and pastoral care for every child
  • Bilingual classrooms (KSL & English) from ECDE to Grade 9
  • Safe boarding, nutritious meals and family partnership
  • A growing community of deaf alumni, leaders and signers
