Alliance Girls High [Courtesy]When formal education was introduced by British colonialists in the early 20th century, there were no secondary schools for girls. That is how Alliance High School came into being, established by a consortium of Protestant churches. The same alliance of churches–the Christian Schools and Missions–that had established Alliance High led the charge by opening girls' primary schools at Kikuyu, Kabete and Kamandura in Kiambu. After that year, Alliance Girls High School was fully established. She returned to Kenya and would be named the first African headmistress at Alliance Girls High.
