Our Story

About Us

A Leading British International School in Nairobi

Hilstone Academy was founded from a simple yet deeply personal vision: to create a school in Nairobi where quality is never compromised and every child is given the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.

The academy was established with the belief that education should nurture not only academic excellence through the Pearson Edexcel British Curriculum but also strong character, authentic Islamic values, confidence, and leadership.

Today, Hilstone Academy continues that vision by offering a supportive environment where students across Nairobi are encouraged to think critically, act with integrity, and become compassionate leaders who positively impact their communities.
