Choosing the right school for your son is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. From August 2nd to 10th, 2025, Merishaw School, a premier boys’ boarding school located just an hour from Nairobi, opens its gates for a one of a kind Open Week experience. This week-long event is tailored for parents, guardians, and prospective students to explore firsthand what makes Merishaw a beacon of academic excellence and holistic development in Kenya.
What awaits you
Merishaw School’s Open Week is more than just a tour, it’s a fully immersive experience. Visitors will get the chance to interact with teachers, students, and school leadership, attend live class demonstrations, view student projects, and participate in engaging workshops. Whether you're keen on academic rigor, talent development, or moral upbringing, Merishaw School promises to showcase it all.
Academic brilliance meets real-world readiness
The school’s unique dual-curriculum offering both the traditional 8-4-4 system (Form 2 -4) and the new curriculum CBE(Grade 7 to Grade 10) as well offering the 3 pathways (STEM, Arts/Sports, and Social Sciences) will be on full display. Parents will learn how Merishaw integrates innovation and technology into teaching, while nurturing excellence through highly qualified educators and a low student-to-teacher ratio.
Recently celebrated for topping the 2024 KCSE exams with a mean score of 10.56, Merishaw’s results speak for themselves but the Open Week allows you to see how those results are achieved.
Mentorship
At Merishaw School, mentorship is at the heart of our mission to nurture and empower the boychild. Through a structured mentorship program, every student is paired with dedicated role models who guide them academically, socially, and emotionally. Our mentors help boys develop confidence, resilience, and leadership skills, while providing a safe space to share challenges and dreams. This personalized support ensures that no boy is left behind, reinforcing Merishaw’s commitment to shaping responsible, capable, and future-ready young men.
More than books: Holistic growth
Merishaw School emphasizes the development of well-rounded and holistic individuals. Visitors and parents will get a firsthand look at Merishaw’s vibrant extracurricular programs: from vocational training (woodwork, metalwork, and aviation technology) to performing arts, sports, entrepreneurship, and even lacrosse, where the school has recently gained international recognition.
You will also tour the school’s eco-conscious infrastructure, modeled around the traditional Manyatta homestead for a safe and family-like environment. Learn about solar energy use, rainwater harvesting, wastewater recycling, and how sustainability is part of the boys’ learning journey.
