Kenyan singer Nadia Mukami has made a significant investment in her son’s education, enrolling her firstborn, Haseeb Kai, at Nova Pioneer, one of the country’s most prestigious private schools.
At just four years old, Haseeb is in Pre-Primary 1 (PP1), marking his first formal step into structured learning.
Haseeb Kai’s School journey
Born in March 2022, Haseeb celebrated his fourth birthday in March 2026. PP1 is designed for children his age, focusing on social skills, early literacy, numeracy, environmental awareness, and creative play.
The Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) emphasises observation-based assessment, portfolios, and developmental checks rather than traditional exams.
Children in PP1 engage in language activities, mathematics/numeracy, environmental activities, psychomotor and creative activities, and religious education.
This holistic approach prepares children for lifelong learning, creativity, and independence.
How much does Nadia pay for fees?
For the year 2026, parents of PP1 learners at Nova Pioneer pay Ksh. 83,500 per term for tuition and Ksh. 22,700 per term for meals. With three terms in a year, this adds up to Ksh. 318,600 annually.
Those who choose to pay upfront for the entire year enjoy a 10% tuition discount, bringing the total down to Ksh 286,740.
In addition to tuition and meals, new parents pay a refundable caution fee of Ksh 10,000, a one-time enrolment fee of Ksh 5,000, and an annual administration fee of Ksh 1,040.
Each term, there is a PTA fee of Ksh 500, amounting to Ksh 1,500 annually. Parents may also incur club fees starting at Ksh 4,000, depending on activities chosen, and a school trip fee of Ksh 2,500 per year.
Altogether, the estimated annual cost for Haseeb ranges between Ksh 306,780 and Ksh 338,740, depending on whether Nadia opts for the discounted annual plan and additional club activities.
Did Nadia and Arrow's relationship end?
Nadia and fellow musician Arrow Bwoy share two sons. While their romantic relationship ended in May 2026, they continue to co-parent.
Enrolling Haseeb at Nova Pioneer reflects their shared commitment to providing a premium education, even amid personal changes.
Fans often scrutinise how public figures raise their children, especially when it involves high-end schools.
Spending over Ksh 300,000 annually on early education highlights the rising cost of private schooling in Kenya.
Nova Pioneer’s inquiry-based model emphasises creativity, independence, and problem-solving skills increasingly vital in modern society.
