Limuru Girls’ School is a National school located in Limuru Sub-county, Kiambu County.
The school was founded in 1922 by Arnold Buttler McDonell for his four daughters and others who might join. Her Governess became the first Headmistress and his oldest daughter Evelyn Mitchell became the first student of the school. In 1926, McDonell sold the school and 60 acres of the farm to the Church Commissioners Society. In 1936, the Common Wealth and Continental Church Society (CCS) became responsible for the school.
In 1938, the first ‘O’ level students sat their examination and in 1952, the first ‘A’ level students sat their Examination.
In 1969, the Ministry of Education expressed its intention to have the School continue as an Inter racial school and in 1974, the Government took over the running of the School. Today, the School is a National public school managed by Board of Management (BoM) as per the Basic Education Act 2013, and the Anglican Church of Kenya, Diocese of Mt. Kenya South as the sponsor.
