Founded in 1948 as the African Girls High School, it is within walking distance from its brother school Alliance High School. == History == Founded in 1948 by the Alliance of Protestant Missions, Alliance Girls' High School was the first institution of higher secondary education for African girls in Kenya, and served in parallel with Kenya High School which at that time only admitted European girls. Before Kenyan independence it was called African Girls High School. Alliance Girls High School sits on 71 acres of land in Kiambu West district, Central Province, originally donated by the Presbyterian Church of East Africa.〔Akyeampong, Emmanuel Kwaku, and Henry Louis Gates (eds) (2012). (''Dictionary of African Biography'' ), Vol. 4, pp. 295; 473. ISBN 0195382072〕 The school's first principal, Jean Wilkinson (''née'' Ewan), was a Scottish missionary. Joan Waithaka, one of the first students to graduate from the school, became its first African principal in 1969. She also served on the 1976 Gachathi Report committee which recommended that the Kenyan government adopt policies which would increase women's participation not only in higher education but also in science and other male-dominated spheres in the country.〔Kiluva-Ndunda, Mutindi Mumbua (2001). (''Women's Agency and Educational Policy'' ), p. 78. State University of New York Press. ISBN 079149165X〕 The first 10 girls admitted to the school arrived on 28 February 1948 and came from the all the different provinces in Kenya as is still the case today. In 1961, Alliance Girls High School was one of the first five schools in Africa to offer the Higher School Certificate (at the time, the equivalent of A Levels and a requirement for university entrance).〔Eshiwani, George S. (1993). (''Education in Kenya Since Independence'' ), pp. 37; 52. East African Publishers. ISBN 9966469990〕 Prior to the establishment of Alliance Girls High School, a few girls had been admitted to the predominantly male Alliance High School. One of the last girls to graduate from there was the writer Rebeka Njau who later taught at the Alliance Girls High School.〔Busby, Margaret (1992). ''Daughters of Africa'', p. 415. Pantheon Books. ISBN 067941634X〕〔Thiong'o, Ngũgĩ wa (2012). (''In the House of the Interpreter: A Memoir'' ), p. 64. Random House. ISBN 1448113156〕 The two schools continue to maintain close relations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alliance Girls High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
