About Us
At Oakridge Academy we lay firm foundations for life.
We believe in a holistic approach to education where we do not only maintain a high academic standard but also walk an intimate road with each child ensuring spiritual and emotional development.
We intentionally expose the children to a biblical value system where teachers do not only teach the Word, but also model and walk in the footsteps of Jesus for the children to see and imitate a living relationship with Christ.
Our class rooms are small and set up to maintain a home atmosphere in which learning becomes an experience and not just an activity. Learning involves all the senses and apart from instruction we set out our lessons in such a way that learning happens through discovery and very practical activities.
We see each child as an individual and carry the belief that each child can learn – we just need to find the key to their learning process.
Our heart is to see the children flourish and become all that God wants them to be. We take pleasure in journeying with each child for their season at Oakridge and believe that this will be the generation through which God will do great things.
