Orchardswood International School History

Orchardswood International School is a small Christian school that was started about five years ago out of a Homeschool by individuals who are passionate about Education and had been homeschooling their children using the Ace curriculum for about 10 years.

Friends and other parents who had seen this kind of approach, wanted their children to have what the homeschooled children were experiencing with the ACE curriculum. As one by one came along, OIS was born starting with preschool to grade 12 to cater for those little ones who were starting school then and also embrace the older students who were from homeschool.

Also, the school was intended to provide an alternate curriculum that fosters spiritual nurturing and growth through a Bible-Based Education with scripture embedded in the material the children are learning. This is in agreement with the scripture from Psalm 119:11 “Your word have I hid in my heart, that I may not sin against you.”

The school aims at dealing with each child as an individual because each one of them is unique and matters in the eyes of God. Therefore; for the last four years, the school has had an outstanding reputation for caring, team working with both young and older children.
