A Christ-centered, competency-based learning environment nurturing the Head, Heart, and Hands of every child in Kinyinya Sector, Gasabo District.
Highlights from our vibrant campus community
Busy Bees Foundation School is located in Giheka Village, Kagugu Cell, Kinyinya Sector, Gasabo District, Kigali City. We opened in 2013 with just 70 nursery pupils. Today we proudly serve 334+ learners across Nursery (3 levels) and Primary (P1–P6).
We implement Rwanda's Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) with strong emphasis on language excellence and holistic child development — nurturing the Head, Heart, and Hands of every learner.
To be a catalyst for sustainable development where all children feel loved, respected and encouraged to perform at their highest potential through quality and affordable education.
To empower each child to acquire, demonstrate and value knowledge and competencies that enable them as lifelong learners to contribute to Rwanda and the world, with emphasis on culture and quality education in a Christ-centered environment.
BBFS believes success rests on visionary leadership, skilled staff, constant professional development, innovation and teamwork. We attract, develop and retain skilled educators and encourage a consultative working atmosphere.
Each value is rooted in scripture and expressed in every interaction within our school community.
Doing our best in all that we do — to the glory of God.
Building strong, positive relationships with one another.
Strong moral principles and commitment to truth.
Being fair and doing right by everyone around me.
Focusing on a bright future built through learning today.
Striving to be clean in body, mind and spirit always.
Working together to achieve greater outcomes.
Understanding that we all fail and deserve second chances.
