Hi Ladies & Gents,

We're a family of 4 with two young children, looking to move to Nairobi in 2015, We haven't done anything like this before so any advice will be gratefully received. More specifically, I am currently researching schooling for the kids. I'd like to find a school offering the British and/or International Primary Curriculum in Nairobi if possible. Can anyone help? As we are volunteers with a registered charity, we are on a tight budget and must raise all our finances ourselves, so tuition fees need to be as minimal as possible. Thank you in advance

there is st mary westlands its affordable and houses are affordable if you did a calculation of how much you could rent a pace and make a decision of either buying a house or leasing it for some yrs, that could be cheaper than monthly rents
good luck
