Cavina School is a British-curriculum preparatory school for children aged two to 13, on a leafy Kilimani campus in Nairobi. Founded in 1950, it sits on spacious grounds with natural ecosystems and a well-equipped science laboratory. The school is divided into Pre-prep and Prep and follows the British framework, culminating in the Common Entrance exam in the final year with eight core subjects: Mathematics, English, French, Science, British History, Geography, Scripture, and Latin. English is central, with language and literature taught to all pupils. By age 13, pupils study three languages and undertake independent projects and broader learning experiences. Facilities include a modern music school with dedicated rooms and ensembles, and extensive sports facilities, including a 25-metre pool and cricket facilities. The Cavina mission is rooted in a God-honouring Christian philosophy, and the program emphasizes outdoor expeditions and a wide range of clubs and service opportunities.
