Through this chance am now a 3rd year student of Law in Moi University Kenya and I have St. Lawrence to thank for that! It has made a lawyer out of me. I would like to be an encouragement and inspiration to others in the 2014 prospectus as an old student. I wish one day to come back and encourage the young souls there to realize their path. Thank-you. Munyao Kennedy Musyoka Lawyer, CREAMLAND CAMPUS 2009 My name is Nassozi Tracy. Before joining the school, i was always attracted to it because of the beautiful joined in 2005, i was not at all disapointed. which encouraged me to join LONDON COLLEGE for my A level as well. I opted for History, Economics, Literature and Divinity as my Alevel combination. The teachers and administrators were always hands on and supported us through the 2 years of A level. They gave us alot of emotional support as well to help us through the whole procees of completing our advanced level. I completed my senior 6 in 2010 and i emerged as one of the best female students with 22 points. I then joined Makerere University Business school in 2011 and completed my bachelors degree in Business computing in 2014 with a second class upper. I really appreciate all the support given to me by all my teachers fellow students and most of all, our papa Mr. Mukiibi Lawrence. I will forever be grateful. My advice to the continuing students is to maintain a high level of discipline while at st.Lawrence and maintain a positive attitude in what ever they do.
