In 2022, Black Rhino Academy Foundation in Germany raised funds for a new structured reading program. Reading skills was one of the weaknesses we identified with our Head of School Mr. Paul Horstead shortly after his arrival in August 2021. Almost all of our students learn English as a second language as most speak Swahili at home so one of our main focus from early years and in lower primary especially is to increase English reading and writing abilities as those are closely aligned with academic success across all subjects in the future. After evaluating the different options we decided on investing in the Cambridge Adventures.

Our Mental Maths Challenge was held in March, where every child had a chance to demonstrate their skills in solving mathematical problems mentally, whilst under the positive pressure of competition.

In February, Black Rhino Academy held its first Spelling Bee for all Years! A job well done by all who participated, and a big congratulations to all the winners! We look forward to holding an Annual Spelling Bee Contest in the future.
