About Nelion Preparatory School

Every child deserves a chance

Founded in 2014 with two learners and a dream, Nelion has grown into a respected school serving more than 350 learners along the Namanga Highway in Kitengela.

Our Story

A dream that grew with its learners

Nelion School was founded in 2014 with a dream: two learners, three teachers, two support staff, supportive directors and one strong belief — “Every Child Deserves a Chance.”

From humble beginnings, with one learner in Playgroup and another in Pre-Unit, the school has grown steadily into a respected institution serving more than 350 learners. At Nelion, education goes beyond the classroom: we are committed to transforming lives, including by supporting children from vulnerable and less fortunate families.
