Braeburn High School is a private international school located on Gitanga Road in the Lavington suburb of Nairobi, Kenya.
History[]
The school was founded in 1968 and was called Braeburn House International School.[1][2]
In 1979 the school consisted of one classroom block and a two-storey house. The Early Years unit and the Year 1 block had no roof at the time.[1] The children have always worn a purple uniform.[1][3]
A sixth form centre was opened in 2010, allowing pupils to complete their entire school education from 3–18 at the school.[2]
Operations[]
The school follows and has over 300 students.
Adjacent to the school is Braeburn School, a primary school. These are owned by the Braeburn Group, which also operates (Nairobi), Mombasa International School, and (in Tanzania).
The school motto is summum appeto,[1] a motto it shares with other schools in the Braeburn Group, which is Latin for 'Seeking the Top'.[4]
