Dormitory

A residential dormitory for girls was opened at Vispa in October 2017, with rooms for 168 girls. The dormitory provides safety, sanitation and a safe environment for study for vulnerable girls at secondary school. It is hoped with this support more girls will reach their potential and enter third level education.

Vispa pupils attending university and college are role models for the school and the whole community, demonstrating the faithfulness of God in their lives
