From November 4th to 10th, 2024, Saint Joseph Development Programmes (SJDP) carried out impactful activities centered on supporting young boys and addressing their unique challenges. The highlight was the Boys Forum held over the weekend—a dedicated session where secondary school boys came together to connect, openly discuss their struggles, and offer mutual support. The event was vibrant and filled with camaraderie, fostering a strong sense of brotherhood and creating a safe space for young men to be heard and understood.
It was a moment to recall as our saint Joseph technical secondary school boys had an interactive session on Positive Masculinity forum facilitated by Brother Martine.

Our weekly Holy Mass remains a cherished cornerstone, offering participants a time for reflection and spiritual renewal. This gathering serves as a moment of grounding amid their busy lives, reinforcing the program’s emphasis on spiritual growth.

With the end of the term approaching, SJDP is focused on helping our Form Four students prepare for the KCSE exams. We’ve established study groups and mentorship sessions to foster collaboration and peer learning. In addition, SJDP is offering stress-relief workshops to support their well-being during this intense period. At Saint Joseph, we are committed to a holistic approach that addresses both spiritual and academic needs, empowering students to succeed academically while fostering meaningful, supportive relationships.
