The Deutsche Schule Nairobi is located in Gigiri, Nairobi, opposite Village Market, among acacia and jacaranda trees and tropical plants, offering a spacious campus for learning, relaxing and playing. The campus is a safe place where children can move freely, friendships form, and a sense of community is tangible. There are modern classrooms and specialist rooms on site. The grounds include a large sports field with a tribune, a beach volleyball court, basketball and tennis courts, and a heated swimming pool. Five different playgrounds with ground trampolines, swings, climbing frames, and even a rabbit hutch invite exploration and play. More than 90 percent of our electricity comes from our own solar installation, and families and club members can use the facilities outside school hours.
