Camphill School Hermanus
Nestled in the Hemel en Aarde Valley near Hermanus in the Western Cape Province of South Africa, lies Camphill School, a sanctuary for children with intellectual and other disabilities. Established in 1952, as an independent special needs school, it has offered generations of children the opportunity for high quality education and care. One of only two small special needs schools in the vast, largely rural Overberg region, it caters for both day and residential learners, aged from 5 to 19 years. Pupils receive high quality, individualised education in small classes, and have access to a wide range of therapies, an educational psychologist and a social worker.
