Gomba International
Children’s Centre

In May, 2012 Gomba International Children’s Centre (GICC) opened it’s doors to a small group of students in a very remote village to begin educating them in primary (elementary) education. This small extension campus, though several hours from our primary campuses in Toggo, produces some our highest performing students. After students reach to P5 (about 5th grade) they are transferred to our other primary school, TICC to finish their education. Right now the campus is built with temporary structures, but once we finish construction on Toggo High, we will begin building permanent structures at GICC and expand the campus to have been accomodations for the students.
