In Grade 9, they have an opportunity to spend a term at another Academy in our network, immersing themselves in a different culture. AKA Mombasa students belong to the AKA Alumni located across the world.
In the residences students further develop their understanding of others as they live, grow, have fun and work together. The bonds grow deep in the dorm families as they support and celebrate each other throughout their journey at the Academy.
