Our Story

Cherry Hills International School is located along Joseph Mwilwa Road in Rhodespark, within the Commercial Business Area of Lusaka, Zambia. We are an independent school serving the needs of the children of Lusaka communities who would benefit from such an institution, which is international in nature, and is based on contemporary educational philosophy and methods.

The school was founded in August 2017, initially set up to provide high quality but affordable education services and care for pre-school toddlers and young children. When our doors first opened, we welcomed just 2 pupils.

Due to demand by parents in ensuring that their children do not lose the excellent foundation they have received, our primary school was born. The Primary level was planned to grow with its own Cherry Hills children who graduated from Reception level at the end of the academic year 2020/2021. We plan to continue growing organically until the final year of upper primary level, and thereafter expand to Secondary level by the year 2028.
