Our School’s History
The building housing Oriah, previously known as Kleuterland, was built approximately 40 years ago. In 1997 we took over Kleuterland Nursery School with babies of 3 months up to Grade R. In 2014 we took a giant leap to start with a Primary school in 2015. We were also very priviledged to buy and renovate the adjacent house as part of the extended school, now known as Oriah Pre-and Primary School.
In 2015 the first Grade 1 class, with 25 learners, opened. Our plan is to add one grade per year, until we have Grade R up to Grade 7 in 2021.
