Why parents choose our daycare
Where your little one is known, loved and learning
The Pre-School section at Kings International Academy provides a warm, safe and nurturing environment where young learners begin their educational journey. Through play-based and activity-centred learning, children develop early literacy, numeracy, creativity, communication and social skills.
Christian values are woven into each day, and our teachers make sure every child feels valued, encouraged and confident as they grow towards primary school.
The section is led by Ms. Alice Wambui, Head of Pre-School. Because daycare is part of the school, your child can stay with familiar teachers and friends all the way from Daycare to Grade 9.
