⇒ Our History 

Kianda Foundation opened Kianda School as a result of numerous requests from past students of Kianda College. Kianda College was the first multiracial college in Africa. Miss. Olga Marlin in her book To Africa with a Dream, says “In 1973 an alumnus of Kianda by the name of Naomi Waiyaki mentioned that she would so much like her daughter who was then in primary school, “to benefit from the personal attention given at Kianda, as I did in Kianda College. Couldn’t you start a secondary school?” Other alumnae said the same. Later I mentioned this to the Father (Monsignor Escriva), and he encouraged the idea.”  

The school started on 9^th January 1977 with 40 form one students, among them Her Excellency Margaret Kenyatta the First Lady of Kenya. The school now has about 900 students. The first Headmistress of the school was Miss Mary Kibera. She was later succeeded by Miss Margaret Roche a Kenyan of Irish descent.

In 1989 the first group of Standard Ones arrived in Kianda compound skipping and chirping with great zest for life.

Kianda College merged with Strathmore College and moved to new premises leaving Kianda School on the present site
