Eastleigh Nairobi Parish

 

I know there are some folks who would like to forget that they were ever associated with Eastleigh ... on the other hand there is quite a lot to be proud of and celebrate. As part of the tribute to the St Teresa's parish and schools, I would like to register the names of the parents who helped build something that fills us all with a lot of pride. Please send me the names of your Mums and Dads to skipfer@live.com.au

Hi Skippy - strangely, like a few others, I missed this earlier post of yours. Johnny’s parents Mr. & Mrs. Evaristo Lobo and both Johnny and I as well as each working member of Johnny’s family had to donate monthly part of their salary to the church at the bequest of Fr. Wheelan. We are proud to be associated to St. Teresa’s parish and also to be part of the legacy we left behind for all to still enjoy in Kenya ðŸ‡°ðŸ‡ª

We all studied at Teresa’s and attended Teresa’s church: The Rodrigues family.  Bonny  Anthony  Johnny, Rose and Mary. We  were the very first students when the school was built. It was then a mixed boys’ and girls’ school. We were transferred from Catholic Parochial school to  St. Teresa’s.
