On close study of the emblem, you will note the following significant parts:
A central part
5 colours
The Bible
Science equipment
Green and white stripes
The central part represents the ‘coat of arms’ of the international Precious Blood Community without the surrounding wreath of the scripture text ‘Thou hast redeemed us by the Precious Blood’
The Precious Blood Sisters started the Precious Blood Secondary School – Riruta and wanted to transmit and share their spirituality with the students. We see the lamb holding a banner and blood is shed and poured out into a chalice. This symbolizes Christ, the Lamb of God, and God made man, who stands in readiness to do the will of his Father. He sheds His Precious Blood, the very last drop, and saves mankind, you and me, from sin and all evil, giving us new life, the fullness of life through His death and resurrection.
The banner is the sign of victory: through suffering and toil of joy, from death to life. The example of Jesus’ life should be our incentive to spend our life in the service of God and others with commitment, in a self-sacrificing spirit, love and zeal for the cause of God and others. This will bring about true and genuine self-fulfilment and will contribute to a better world. It will be a preparation for the life to come in eternal happiness and peace.
The frame shows the school setting of the Precious Blood Secondary School
The five colours above, i.e. blue, red, white, yellow and green – indicate the five different houses in the school. Every student belongs to one of these houses.
Blue – Meru
Red – Kilimanjaro
White – Kenya
Yellow – Ruwenzori
Green – Elgon
The houses are representative of five prominent mountains in the Eastern Africa region.
The Bible at the right corner, just below the five colours, symbolizes the importance of the word of God, which should guide the life of all members of the school and from which we should learn our life-values and life-principles. This we do through all our actions, studies, sports, play combined with prayer and all other commitments the school asks of them. It is hoped that our lives will then be according to the spirit of Christ.
The science equipment seen at the left side below the five colours stands for the efforts required to develop all the potentials of the students in all spheres – human, social, communal, religious and academic. The aim is to mould the whole personality into that individual God had in mind at creation. Therefore the motto ‘Forward ever, backward never’.
The two colours shown at the bottom of green and white signify the school uniform. White blouses and socks and green skirts and sweaters.

Husband of Teacher Murdered After Withdrawing Cash Had Previously Been Kidnapped and Robbed
Husband of Teacher Killed After Withdrawing Money from Bank Had Earlier Been Abducted, Robbed of Cash
Residents of Ekero Market in Busia are in a state of shock following the fatal shooting of a female teacher from Khaunga Secondary School by armed assailants on Tuesday.
The victim, Roselida Akinyi Wanga, was attacked in broad daylight shortly after she withdrew Ksh. 200,000 from a bank in Mumias town.
Eyewitnesses reported that the assailants, who had been trailing her in a small vehicle, ambushed her as she made her way home.
According to area Chief Peter Nabiswa, this incident is not the first instance of the family being targeted. Last year, Akinyi’s husband, who is also a teacher, was abducted, robbed of cash, and subsequently dumped in a thicket in Siaya after withdrawing money from the same bank.
The couple also managed mobile banking and agency services at Khaunga Market, which may have rendered them susceptible to criminal attention.
Authorities have confirmed that investigations are currently ongoing; however, no arrests have been made to date.
Community members have condemned the act of violence, demanding immediate action from law enforcement.
The brutal murder has left the local population feeling terrified, with many urging authorities to strengthen security measures.
This incident underscores the increasing concerns regarding bank-related robberies in various regions of the country, alongside calls for enhanced security for business operators and residents.
Strathmore School is a a prestigious private, independent, boys’ day school located in Nairobi; Westlands Constituency, Kenya that follows the 8-4-4 curriculum. The school was started as a Sixth Form college in March 1961. In 1977 the first Form One students were admitted, and in 1987 the first Standard One pupils.
Today, there are around 630 students in the school with a significant number of them receiving financial aid. Strathmore began as a Sixth Form College offering a full range of Arts and Science subjects. The first Form Five students enrolled in March, 1961, and sat the Higher School Certificate Examination in November 1962.
Accountancy studies were added to the College Curriculum in January, 1966, when the first students registered to prepare for the Association of Certified Accountants examinations. The first Form One students enrolled in January, 1977; during the years 1977-1980 the Secondary School was expanded to include Forms One to Four.
The College is managed by Study Centres of Kenya. The land and buildings of the College are held in Trust by Strathmore Registered Trustees which is incorporated as a charitable Trust under the Land (Perpetual Succession) Ordinance.
With the starting of the Primary School, the Trustees have organized Strathmore College into two levels: ‘Strathmore College School of Accountancy’ for post-secondary studies and ‘Strathmore School’ for primary and secondary Studies.
Here are links to the most important news portals:
The School’s chief purpose is to develop the minds and consciences of its students so that they can become self-disciplined and resourceful, and therefore better able to serve society in a useful way. Above all, the School emphasizes academic excellence and moral integrity. The School aims at creating an environment that is conducive to learning; both experienced teachers and well-motivated students strive to create this environment.
Through daily close contact with the students in the classroom, in extra-curricular activities and on the sports fields, the School Staff strive to develop in the students such qualities, such as honesty, responsibility, good use of freedom, tolerance, and hard work. The School aims at providing an education based on Christian principles and accepts worthwhile students regardless of creed.
Srathmore Court of Arms
The lion is the symbol of strength, power, courage of determined fight for excellence and justice. It also represents Kenya, our country, which has all the qualities mentioned above.
The Rose in full blossom represents, love, the source of all good desires and actions, even if at times it requires loving sacrifice, represented by the thorns the rose shows in its stem. The rose has some supernatural meaning. Love, in capital letters, is love of God. And also it has some historical meaning associated with the life of Blessed Josemaria who inspired and encouraged those who started Strathmore: He received a sign by means of a wooden gilded carved rose in a very trying moment of his life.
The Three hearts represent the three races which, in 1961 when the School started, were segregated in the colonial system of education. The heart represents the person, since it is taken as the source of all our actions, and the source of love. Being the three hearts of the same colour it shows the radical equality of all people. At the beginning it clearly meant the unity sought of the three major races. These days it means the co-operation of parents, teachers and students towards the same aim.
The motto “Ut ommnes unum sint” is in Latin. It is a quotation from a passage of the Gospel, and translated means “That all may be one”. It expresses the desire of working together towards the same aim, in spite of individual legitimate opinions, preferences and tastes.
The colours in heraldry (the science of making coats of arms) have associated meanings as follows:
Blue (Azure) Sky blue means high ideals, high aims;
Red (Gules) Blood red means sacrifice, love, fortitude;
