Facilities

The school has been growing ever since its move from the Village area of Gaborone in the 1960’s. The grounds have undergone many changes over the years but those who were here when it was first constructed would still recognise some of the buildings.

The classrooms are surrounded by quiet open areas where the children can also work outside, one of the benefits of the climate of Botswana.

We have a number of different teaching areas and the facilities are listed below.

Facilities Include:

  • 30 Classrooms
  • 1 Science Practical Room
  • 2 Setswana Rooms
  • 2 French Room
  • 4 Music Rooms
  • 2 School Halls
  • 4 Learning Support Rooms
  • 1 Library
  • 1 Uniform Shop
  • 1 Administration Block
  • 2 ICT Suites and an Audio Visual Room (full internet access) Wireless and Fibre Networks throughout the school
  • 4 Playgrounds with equipment for the different age groups in the school
  • 2 Swimming Pools (1 small, 1 25m)
