JISK, which was then called Little Jewels, started in a small garage adjacent to the Munshi residence with only five toddlers. As the student body grew, so did the school. In September 2000, construction of the existing school building was completed on two hectares of land. In 2004 JISK opened a French section offering instruction to students according to the French system of education. The school is located in the Commune of N'galiema, a residential area, 20 minutes from down town Kinshasa.
Our facilities are purposeful and similar to any international school on the continent. Classrooms are bright, spacious, and fully air-conditioned. Libraries, computer labs, science labs and large art rooms make up the infrastructure. Students enjoy the benefits of large, enclosed playing fields, a pool, splash pad, a multipurpose hall, and a complete jungle gym playground. JISK also houses a privately owned canteen that offers students a variety of snacks and food at an additional fee.
JISK also houses a mindfulness room, prayer room, a kitchen, and music rooms.
A state-of-the-art design lab will be operational for the 2024/25 academic year.
