Success Stories
Saint Shaela s famous community orphan school for developing its students academically, spiritually and physically. Their programs deliberately promote self expression, discipline and God-centered living.
I have realized our they encourage students to be communicators, principled, open-minded, innovative and caring. Through thier charity program, the students are being provided with meals, and clothing. The school usually all rounded confident individuals. This is also why our school has gained a reputation for molding just such leaders

The teachers have always been kind, understanding, and encouraging. The school has modeled needy children and have taken the responsibility of nurturing their minds. Without this school, many children could have not access school classrooms. I’m so happy that these children got to a point where they feels comfortable despite losing their parents and having hope for the future. The students have confident in thier work now and the community at large are proud to see the school has a transformation centre Thank you, Saint Shaela. You have worked miracles to these children
