A School of Love
A place to grow, question, discover and become.
Kivulini Schools is a warm, progressive learning community where academic excellence, character, creativity and real-world experiences come together to help every learner become a confident champion.
“Inspiring Greatness, One Child At A Time.”
90%
of Kivulini learners rated Exceeding or Meeting Expectations in the national KPSEA assessment.

Child-led discovery and national-curriculum structure, in one classroom, at each learner’s own pace.
Every child belongs
We are committed to fostering a respectful, supportive and welcoming school environment in which every learner is valued, encouraged to participate and provided with opportunities to learn and develop alongside their peers.
Swimming & music
Every learner develops confidence beyond academics through swimming and music as part of school life.
Proven results
90% Exceeding/Meeting Expectations in the 2023 KPSEA — and just as proud of the champion who found their voice in drama club.
Future-ready skills
Coding, robotics, STEM and practical projects connect learning to the world around learners.
Learning beyond class
Trips, cultural days, talent shows, sports and expeditions create meaningful experiences learners remember.
School Life
Ask any champion what they remember most.
It’s rarely a worksheet. It’s the swimming gala, the cultural-day costume, the chess-tournament nerves. Every learner takes part in swimming and music as standard — everything else is a growing menu of clubs and co-curriculars.
