Here is our Mission In Action!
Our campus is a vibrant sanctuary of learning, creativity and connection. It’s not just a school, it’s a global village where students from 50+ nationalities come together, learn from each other and thrive in a boldly diverse environment. From the moment you step through the gates, you feel it: the energy, the purpose, the promise of something extraordinary.
But what truly sets HIS apart is its status as Zimbabwe’s only International Baccalaureate (IB) World School. We offer a seamless continuum from Early Childhood through to the Diploma Programme, empowering students with critical thinking, intercultural understanding and a passion for lifelong learning. It’s a place where learners don’t just memorise, they question, explore and lead.
