The Rockfields way
Our ethos · Soaring to Greatness

A school built on three pillars: Rooted, Rising, Soaring.

Our crest shows an eagle rising over a mountain at sunrise. That is the whole idea of the school: give a boy solid ground to stand on, then the confidence to go a long way beyond it.

Junior Secondary (Grades 7 to 9) and Senior School (Grades 10 to 12) share one campus. The teachers who know him in Grade 7 are still here when he sits his final exams.

Academic Excellence

All three CBC pathways on one campus: STEM, Arts & Sports Science and Social Sciences. Classes of about 35.

Pastoral Care

Every teacher lives on the compound. There is a nurse in the dispensary and a kitchen that cooks three meals a day.

Future-Focused

Aviation and entrepreneurship, so a boy leaves with a direction as well as a certificate.

Character & Service

St John Ambulance cadets and more than ten clubs and societies. Boys learn to serve, and to lead.

Discover our ethos
Life at Rockfields

What a boy finds here.
And what he can become.

A boy chooses the CBC pathway that suits him. Agriculture and Aviation are on offer too, and three programmes run alongside the timetable: sport, aviation and enterprise.

In their words

What our families say

Sample quotes for layout. Real family voices are being collected and will replace these.

“I was worried about sending him so far from home. Then I saw where he sleeps, who cooks his food and that there is a nurse on the compound. These days he calls on Sunday to tell us about football.”
A Grade 8 parentNairobi
“Rockfields taught me to stand up and speak. Six years with the same teachers meant nobody let me hide. By the time I got to university I already knew how to work.”
AlumniStudying Engineering at the University of Nairobi
“The best part is the afternoons. The pitch, the pool, the cadets. What surprised me was the labs. We do the experiments ourselves, every pair of us.”
