Welcome from our principal

A warm school where children do well.

We want school to feel safe and happy, so that children are free to try, to ask questions, and to grow. That has been our aim since the day we opened.

Our teachers know every child by name. Our pupils get good results, and they leave us as kind, confident young people. Come and visit, and see it for yourself.

Our story

How the school started.

Havilah opened in 2009 with just one nursery class in Lekki. It was started by a small group of teachers and parents who wanted a better school for their children.

Today we teach more than six hundred pupils, from nursery to secondary school, on our own campus. We have grown, but we still keep classes small so that every child is known and cared for.

What we believe

What we believe in.

Three simple things guide the way we run the school and the way we treat every child.

01

Good results

We set a high standard for every child and help them reach it. We teach the Nigerian and Cambridge curriculum, up to WAEC.

02

Good character

We care about the kind of person a child becomes, not just their grades. We teach honesty, respect, and care for other people.

03

Proud of home

We give children a world-class education while keeping them proud of their own culture, language, and home in Nigeria.
