The funeral for Brian and Grace Johnston, two New Zealanders killed in Kenya will get underway in about half an hour.

The couple died when the mini-van they were travelling in left the road and rolled into a ditch along with a Tauranga teenager.

They were all part of a 19 strong group from Bethlehem College in Tauranga, carrying out charity work at a school in the Western Province.

Principal, Eoin Crosbie, describes the couple as "outstanding parents" to their 10 children.

Around two thousand people are expected to attend the funeral at the Bethlehem College chapel.
