Orange Grove Schools have recently acquired a beautiful new staff room and kitchen/catering facility overlooking the tennis courts with a view of the distant thornveld-covered mountains.

We have also recently completed separate boys and girls ablution blocks, complete with toilets and showers, as well as a dedicated science and biology lab that also doubles as an art room.

In other Orange Grove Projects, work is currently underway on a wood-framed log cabin for Orange Grove Outdoor Adventures, which will provide dormitory accommodation for the colder winter months.

In the grounds of the Story, building has started on wood-framed consulting rooms that will form the basis of a wellness clinic that will offer medical care to the community.
