Orban School

Affordable pre-primary and primary private education in a diverse community - from 4 months to grade 7

Orban School is an independent, proudly South African dual-medium school in the heart of the Melville Koppies. We offer affordable pre-primary and primary education in a diverse community.

The Orban spirit thrives in a positive environment. The concept “learn” pertains to the acquisition of significant knowledge and skills that will equip our learners for life – not only in the future but also in the present. The concept “live” pertains to the learners’ overall life experience at school, as meaningful, positive and pleasurable.

English & dual medium school

We achieve these aspirations within a warm and friendly atmosphere as we strive to maintain a sense of family and belonging. We have one English and one Dual medium class per grade.*-++

With an attitude of acceptance, we view each learner as a valuable individual with unique characteristics as we strive to discover and encourage the unfolding of their full potential. We embrace a continuous learning approach to instill a balanced craving for knowledge, literature, the arts, culture and life skills in each of our learners.

Small classes

Our talented and highly skilled teachers educate through innovative and creative methods, both inside and outside the classroom. Orban also offers Six Bricks and the STEAM learning solution to learners from an early age.

We adapt our teaching to include Google Classroom for digital and online lessons when required. Central to our teachers’ role as custodians of the Orban ethos is their accessibility and willingness to engage in relationships with both learners and parents.

Baby & toddler centre

Orban School's baby and toddler centre (4 months to 3 years) is a safe and nurturing space of discovery where a world of play and learning unfolds. Our babies and toddlers thrive on personal attention, sensory stimulation and a sense of wonder for the treasures each day holds.
