About the school

Burhani Nursery School, formerly known as Hamidyah Nursery School, has been nurturing young learners in Tanga since 2009. Our school was founded with a strong commitment to understanding the individual needs of every child and creating a warm, caring, and stimulating environment where each learner grows confidently.

Our modern campus, developed through the collaboration of Tanga Bohra Education Society and private stakeholders, provides a safe and attractive setting for early learning. In December 2024, we further expanded our facilities by adding a fully equipped indoor play area to support free play, creativity, and structured indoor activities.

We follow a blended UK–Tanzanian curriculum that builds strong foundations in literacy, numeracy, communication, and thinking skills. Our program integrates play-based and inquiry-based learning, giving children joyful and meaningful ways to explore, investigate, create, and understand the world around them.

Physical development is also an important part of our program. Children participate in sports, movement activities, and play routines that support balance, strength, coordination, and confidence.

Every child learns at his or her own pace in a calm, non-competitive environment where teachers guide, encourage, and support them with patience and care.

We strongly believe that parents are essential partners in a child’s development. Through our “Parents as Partners” program, we maintain open communication and encourage families to play an active role in their child’s early learning journey.

At Burhani Nursery School, our goal is to nurture confident, curious, happy learners who are ready for the next stage of their education with strong values and a love for learning.
