About Us

Founded in 1998, Rimbun School Bandung is an independent, co-educational day school for Kindergarten to Grade 12. We run a bilingual program on a 6-hectare green campus in the Bandung highlands, and we aim to prepare students for university and for their communities in equal measure.

Our classes are small and our projects are real. Students design investigations, present findings to visiting families and leave school able to think in two languages. Teaching follows the Indonesian national curriculum, with Cambridge enrichment added from Grade 6.

Brief history

Rimbun opened in 1998 with 42 children and six teachers in two rented houses on the Setiabudi road. Parents built the first garden beds themselves, and the school’s name comes from the leafy plot where the first classes met.

The campus has grown to 6 hectares, with a library, four science labs, a maker space and a full-size sports field. In 2019 we added the organic garden, which now supplies the canteen each week.
