Virunga Valley Academy: Why We Made Our Home in the Virungas

We could be based anywhere in the Gorilla Highlands region, but our choice is Musanze under the Virungas. The reason is very simple: it isn’t easy to get quality education in rural Africa, and here in the north of Rwanda we have found a remarkable international school.
We’ve invited our little Lan to tell you more about it, as honestly as only a child can. If you wish to see it with your own eyes, contact Virunga Valley Academy on +250 783 963 561.
Wanna learn more about the Virunga volcanoes, the gorgeous lakes and interesting towns around them — in Rwanda, Uganda and Congo? Follow The Virungas on Instagram or Facebook, or head to our main page.
