History and Campus
Raha International School (RIS) opened its doors to families in its Gardens Campus in 2006 and has become one of the most sought-after schools in Abu Dhabi. In 2019, Raha announced its expansion to a second campus, the Khalifa City Campus which now functions as an independent school under the RIS brand.
The Gardens Campus is situated on 14 acres of beautifully landscaped property in the Raha Gardens development in the neighborhood of Khalifa City in Abu Dhabi. The campus features several large piazzas and wide walkways lined with palm trees, with an abundance of open space and play areas. The spacious and bright classrooms are fully equipped with the latest technology to enhance research and sharing. The Gardens Campus enrolment is currently about 2200 students from Early Years to Grade 12.
Only 7 minutes’ drive from Gardens Campus is Khalifa City Campus (KCC). Situated in the heart of Khalifa City, the state-of-the-art campus has grown to house KCC Mini’s to Grade 12. It features a purpose-built Early Years Centre with emphasis on safe, innovative and integrated collaborative learning spaces, and outstanding indoor and outdoor sporting facilities.
