Mahiga Primary School in Nairobi is a public primary and junior secondary school located in the Githurai/Kahawa West area of Roysambu Constituency.
The school is a day institution and operates from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, with wheelchair accessibility provided at both the entrance and the parking lot.


A significant focus in recent times has been the extensive rehabilitation of the school’s five-decade-old Mahiga Playground. This project, a community initiative, aims to transform a previously neglected area into a safe, vibrant, and inclusive community space through careful excavation, leveling, and compaction of the ground.


Furthermore, the school has benefited from modern infrastructure development, including the construction of new multi-story classroom buildings and the installation of a perimeter wall, funded through the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NGCDF) to enhance the learning environment and security for students and staff.
