STELLAR GIRLS KENYA & NOVA PIONEER SCHOOLS

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step! 

We are happy to have taken the first step into our long-lasting and fruitful friendship with the formidable and prestigious Nova Pioneer Schools, Tatu City. This past Sunday, 13th November 2022, we were called upon to mentor and minister to students at Nova Pioneer High Schools, Tatu City (Girls & Boys). Our stellar mentors showed up in large numbers to share, mentor, educate, elevate and empower the students into eventually transforming into their best version a.k.a their stellar version! 

The speakers for the church services were stellar mentors; Austine Muga (boys) and Nicole Kimani (girls) who strongly spoke and taught on ‘Finishing Strong’ and ‘Anxiety & Anger Management’ respectively. With National Exams nearing, there’s a tendency to fear what’s coming and guidance on key tips to handle the looming pressure were effectively put across by our mentors.

After the service the students still wanted more from us and more did we give!! We hang around for an intense Q&A session and had all mentors present assigned a class to handle. This session, albeit short, proved more productive that we thought possible. We were teaching, mentoring and directing on matters life, school, career but also still being taught a thing or two by the very attentive and bright students.

One of our mentors was asked a question (Form 3 student) that they had to skillfully respond to by saying, “Wow! Can that be my take-home assignment? I shall get back to you once I do proper research.” 

“How does Tesla use data analysis to increase their sales per annum?”

Dear friends of Stellar Girls Kenya , we need a comprehensive answer to this mind-blowing question for our next visit to Nova! That’s your Call To Action. 

What an experience!
What a day!
We are honored. We were challenged and are definitely going back!

Thank you Nova Pioneer Kenya

QUORA 3: STAKI MKATE!

Q: Has a homeless/street person ever refused food you've offered them? If so, did they provide an explanation? Well, well, well, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, my fellow repeat readers or repeat clients, if you may! Today I have a short story to bless your eyes and ears. Will it blow your mind? Maybe. Will it give you reason to come back here and check out more stories? Definitely!  I assume that most of you my readers are Nairobi residents and if not, you've been here at one point in your life. This is a notably great city with beautiful people, a people with a culture so rich everyone outside it wants to come have a taste. It is a hub of 'unity', or so they say. It's here that the assorted bunch of the various tribes come to link up, all forty two of them. Our relatives from the rurals are fascinated by this city, no wonder they gather around to hear tales of its craziness every time  Nairobians visit home for Christmas. The streets, as usual, are ever buz...

ROOFTOP

After exactly 3 months and 11 days, today I went back up the stairs to the rooftop of the apartment we stay at. Trembling and shaking, I kept taking a step after the next hoping to get to the top. Several times I kept thinking, …why go? …but kept at it regardless. On this rooftop, I had set a very calm meeting place with my Father. For about 3 months leading to the delivery of my darling baby girl, I'd come up here, do some simple workouts but most importantly have a daily tete-a-tete with Him. I couldn't and still can't wrap my head around the fatigue that comes with the 3rd trimester and rightly so, many times I contemplated not going up there. What made me keep up with the routine was the fact that I knew He was waiting for me and was eager to talk about how far and smooth my pregnancy journey was.   We'd talk about my hopes, dreams and plans for baby in my tummy. We'd discuss my maternity leave plans and among other things mostly just sit in the silence of dawn ...

What's success to you?

When I enrolled into University, my main goal was to succeed, that’s everyone’s goal at this point really. Time has passed by so quickly and the goal still remains the same. Many are times I tend to lose focus on this goal and I end up messing up big time. Life’s like a mountain, you’ve got to gather the strength to move up to the peak despite the strong wind that will try to block you from getting there. You might reach some point and get tired, or you lose the strength to move on but with your eyes fixed at the peak, all is gonna go smoother than you can imagine. But you've got to have the hunger to reach there, you’ve got to have the desire to acquire what’s at the peak, have fire in your belly, be proactive, strong-willed, optimistic and most of all prayerful. All that I think lies with what YOU think success is. There are gazillion definitions of success but I think every single person should have their own definition of this success we all very much want. What'...
