Our new mobile chicken coops are helping Kuwala Farm grow in a more sustainable way! 🐔🌱

By moving throughout the farm, the chickens naturally fertilize the soil, help control pests, and support healthier crop production.

A simple solution with a big impact.

Recently, we welcomed back members of the Class of 2022, now thriving at university in fields like Agriculture, Education, Environmental Science, and Computer Science.

Seeing how far they've come—and how much Kuwala has grown—is a powerful reminder of why this work matters. 🌱

Big upgrade, even bigger impact 🍽️

Our new oil-jacketed boiling pans are now in use, making it easier to prepare nutritious meals for 300+ students and staff each day.

This investment supports our kitchen team and helps ensure every meal is cooked efficiently and consistently.

We're proud to share that 22 of our 34 graduating students have already been accepted into public universities this fall! 🎓

Their hard work, perseverance, and determination have opened the door to exciting new opportunities. Congratulations to the Class of 2026! 🌟 #Malawi

We were pleased to welcome our Canadian board members to campus for a firsthand look at the progress being made.

From thriving crops to expanding infrastructure, the farm continues to grow as a model of sustainability, stewardship, and hope. 🌱

How do we break the cycle of food insecurity? We change the way we farm 🚜

Over 4M people in Malawi face acute food insecurity. Unpredictable rainfall means traditional harvests can’t keep up. That's why we’re using climate-smart irrigation to reduce reliance on rain 🌱💪

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

When your livelihood depends on the land, climate change is real.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we’re reflecting on sustainability at Kuwala 🌱

We use companion planting and tree planting to restore soil, improve water retention, and build resilience. 💪

#Malawi #KuwalaSchool

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

22% of Malawi faces acute food insecurity. One rainy season isn’t enough—innovation is key.

At Kuwala Farm, modern irrigation is turning 55 acres into year-round production of maize, soybeans, beans, groundnuts & animal feed 🌱

One harvest at a time. #FoodSecurity #AgriTech

Technology is strengthening safety at Kuwala 📡

With Starlink and backup power, CCTV now improves monitoring across key areas of campus and farm.

Technology isn’t replacing people, it’s supporting safer systems for our community. 🔐

🌿 Today is International Day for Biological Diversity

At Kuwala Farm, we’re not just growing crops, we’re rebuilding biodiversity above and below the soil. Through companion planting, we’re working with nature to build resilience.

Healthier soil. Stronger yields. More balance.

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

🏫 Campus security is key to a safe learning environment at Kuwala.

We use a layered approach: fencing + natural barriers, a trained security team with radios & lighting, and controlled sign-in access at the main gate.

All designed to keep students & staff safe 🔐

🤔 What have our students been up to?

Form Four students are writing mock exams in Chemistry, Physics, Biology & Agriculture—aligned with national standards.

In a fully equipped lab 🧪 they’re also completing practical experiments.

Building skills, confidence & exam readiness.

🌱 Farm update:

We’re expanding our greenhouse production again! After relocating the existing greenhouse, we’re now building new ones to boost year-round growing capacity.

Last year alone, tomatoes production was over 8,000 kg! 🍅

Stay tuned for more updates from the Farm 🌿.

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

At our school, reliable power supports classrooms, safe learning, and farm systems that help sustain food production ⚡

That’s why we’ve invested in more resilient systems.

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

AI is reshaping the world—and classrooms in Malawi are no exception.

At Kuwala, we’re embracing AI as a present-day learning tool, not a distant trend. It’s used to support—not replace—learning.

💡 Tech should sharpen the mind, not replace original thought.

(🧵2/2)So what does this mean for schools like Kuwala?
❌ Interrupted classes
❌ No evening study time
❌ Unreliable digital learning
❌ Disrupted admin & lesson prep
❌ Challenges feeding students & staff

That’s why we built a multi-layered energy system for reliable power.

[Kuwala School @KuwalaSchool]

(🧵 1/2) In Malawi, electricity supply is often unstable - especially in rural areas.

Heavy reliance on hydropower means low rainfall, storms & weather shifts can disrupt power. ⚡

At Kuwala, this leads to frequent outages that affect daily life on campus.
