Our approach
Growing the whole child.
Four pillars shape every school day: strong academics, learning in nature, sport, and the emotional and social wellbeing of every learner.
School in the Bush
Our environmental educators lead supervised outdoor learning, camps and educational tours.
Sport & teamwork
Regular sport and physical activity build fitness, coordination, resilience and team spirit.
Wellbeing & expression
Care for emotional and social growth, with music, dance, performances and the Environment Awareness Expo.
01 · Curriculum & confidence
Strong foundations for every learner.
Wild Kids Academy follows the Namibian national curriculum from Nursery to Grade 9. Literacy, numeracy and the core subjects are the heart of every school day, taught by qualified teachers who know each learner well.
Lessons are active and practical. Learners work in groups, investigate, present their findings and debate real questions, building the confidence to think for themselves rather than simply memorise.
Science projects, public presentations and chess sharpen problem-solving and strategic thinking.
02 · School in the Bush
The bush is our second classroom.
Our environmentalists work side by side with class teachers to plan regular, supervised outdoor learning, as well as camps and educational journeys across Namibia and beyond.
The youngest learners experience the Outdoor Classroom, where normal lessons move outside. Older grades join camps and field trips where they track, observe, collect data and meet the communities and researchers who live and work with nature.
Safety & care
Outdoor adventure, with responsible supervision.
Every excursion and camp follows an approved plan and risk assessment, with at least two adults including a teacher, qualified guides where required, first aid provision and parent communication.
There is no swimming in rivers. Transport is licensed with temporary passenger insurance. The Principal is the Designated Safeguarding Person, with the HOD as deputy. Updated policies will be summarised when adoption is confirmed.
03 · Sport & teamwork
Strong bodies, confident minds.
Sport is an essential part of life at Wild Kids. Learners train and compete in athletics, football, netball and hockey, while our chess players test their strategy at tournaments.
Through sport children build fitness and coordination – and just as importantly, they learn teamwork, discipline, fair play and how to win and lose with grace.

04 · Wellbeing & expression
Every child known, valued and heard.
We care about how our learners feel as much as what they learn. Teachers know each child, and our school culture builds kindness, respect and belonging across every background.
Theatre productions, music, dance, cultural days and public speaking at the Environment Awareness Expo help children discover their voice and grow in confidence.
