The Rudolf Steiner School, Mbagathi
Our school is situated 20 km south of Nairobi on the Maasai plains, close to Nairobi National Park. Our school offers the Rudolf Steiner curriculum to our four Kindergarten groups, primary and junior secondary classes up to class Ten. Besides the Steiner/Waldorf curriculum, the school integrates the Competence Based Curriculum (CBC), the state curriculum of Kenya. This allows them to join senior secondary school after finishing class Ten. Our school is unique not just because it offers Steiner education but because its purpose is to help the financially challenged families through our sponsorship programme.
