St. Austin's Academy is a private Kenyan school serving ages 2 to 18, offering a continuous curriculum from Kindergarten through A Levels. The Early Years use a play‑based approach with an outdoor learning area, developing social, emotional and physical skills alongside early literacy. Kiswahili begins in Year 1 and French develops through speaking and listening before reading and writing. The Junior School emphasizes English and Mathematics while building language and numeracy through structured play.
