Welcome to the website of the Rudolf Steiner School, Mbagathi, Nairobi.
Our school is situated 20 km south of Nairobi on the Masai plains. There is a Primary department and four Kindergarten groups. The school has been building up steadily over the years and is still growing. There are approximately 320 children in the whole school, about a quarter of whom are boarders; the remainder come daily from Masai Lodge road, Ongata Rongai and further afield.
We run a daily bus service around Ongata Rongai area from Mondays to Fridays and to Nairobi for the weekly boarders on Monday mornings and Friday afternoons.
The Rudolf Steiner School is a non-profit making organization. Its legal status is one of a charitable trust, registered under the Trust (Perpetual Succession) Act as No. PS52. It has received Full Registration from the Ministry of Education of Kenya.
The Rudolf Steiner School was started in September 1989 with a small kindergarten, in a rented house on Magadi road. In 1990 the present 20 acre plot was bought.

Steiner Education
We offer the Rudolf Steiner curriculum up to class 8. The aim is to educate the whole child so that he/she grows up with vitality and with initiative for the future. The education therefore develops the child’s thinking (head), feelings (heart) and doing or willing (hand). The main subjects are introduced in the morning lessons (main lesson); all lessons are taught artistically so that the whole child becomes involved in the subject, thus deepening the child’s contact with it.
