St. Constantine International School |

We don't just learn from books, but also from exploring and taking full advantage of the incredible world around us. Internships, shadowing experiences, field expeditions, field trips and even travel abroad programmes are an essential part of the unique St. Constantine experience.

Living in a privileged location

Our campus is lined with beautiful boulevards of ancient trees for pleasant walks and contemplation, we have over 10 acres of open fields for play and sports, and we are surrounded by over 1,000 acres of the famed Burka coffee plantation.

Living in World Heritage Area

We live on the slopes of Mt. Meru on the eastern edge of the eastern branch of the Great Rift Valley. The volcano is 14,977 feet and is the topographic centrepiece of Arusha National Park where it supports a forest that has diverse wildlife.

Sports for All!

With over 2 dozen teams and sports clubs, and facilities that include two pools, 4 multi-use basketball-volleyball-tennis courts, a beach volleyball court, and football, jr, rugby, track, netball fields; and a sports philosophy of participation for all, its no wonder our teams are so successful and our kids so fit and healthy.

Academic Excellence

Academic Excellence - a challenging, rich and diverse selection of electives and experiential courses coupled with the world class Cambridge International Examinations curriculum, are producing some of the top performers in Tanzania, Africa - even in the world.

Creating life-long memories

A strong sense of community forges deep and lasting bonds among our students with friendships that last a lifetime. The St. Constantine student experiences community in ways that promote cooperation, solidarity and common purpose. They learn the meaning of civic responsibility and a strong sense of allegiance towards their peers and their community.

Experiential Learning!

Tanzania and the World are our classroom! Outdoor learning, student run school farms, extensive field trips, community service, work shadowing, travel abroad - are all part of the unique St. Constantine learning experience. Our programmes take full advantage of Tanzania’s incredible cultural, biological, geographic and ecological diversity.
