The Royal Drakensberg School is situated in the Northern Drakensberg at the entrance to The Cavern. It is an independent school which caters for children from Grade 000 up to Grade 5.
We believe that there is a great need for holistic education of a world class standard in our area. Conditions in these rural areas are poor and the teachers lack resources and infrastructure. We feel that an established independent school, which is properly staffed and managed, will go a long way to giving children the necessary grounding to reach their maximum potential.
I would like to apply for my son he is currently doing grade 2 please advise how do I go about getting him in this school.

I would like to know if you have kids that can play some chess with our kids here at Winterton Primary School. We have about 10-15 which include kids that are all confident in their game and about 3 that are very confident. We could happily come your way or you could come to us. Please contact me at 083 281 8278. Many thanks Heste Outram
