Berg-Op Academy

Our learners had great fun dressing up as different idioms and showing off their creativity.

Thank you to everyone who took part and made the day a wonderful success!

Congratulations to Milanka Bean on her fantastic performance at the Gymkhana Club Windhoek's Annual Showjumping and Dressage Show last weekend! 🐎✨

Milanka saw great success, placing in 3 out of her 5 classes:
🥇 1st Place: Training Level Dressage T3
🥇 1st Place: 70cm Jumping Competition (Two Rounds)
🥈 2nd Place: 60cm Jumping Competition

A special shoutout to her performance in the jumping categories, where Children, Juniors, and Adults all compete together for the top spots! In the Dressage classes, participants received separate placings by age group. 🏆

Well done, Milanka! We are so proud of your hard work and results.

With last year’s final examination (NSSCO), two of our learners (then in Grade 11) achieved outstanding results.
They received their certificates this week:

Makayla van der Westhuizen achieved an overall 2nd place in the Otjozondjupa Region.
Anne Koch achieved an overall 3rd place in our region.

We are incredibly proud of them. They are an example of hard work, dedication, and perseverance!
We wish them all the very best with the rest of their AS journey.

⛰️ A new Berg-Op Academy tradition has begun — hiking the Fish River Canyon. An experience that cannot truly be explained, only lived.

23 - 27 May 2026, 5 days 100km - what a week !!

Five learners, one teacher, one guide, two old scholars, family and friends embarked on a journey that will be remembered for years to come. Gruelling at times, breathtaking every step of the way, and absolutely worth it. Apart from a few aching muscles and tired legs, we returned with full hearts, unforgettable memories, and a deeper appreciation for God’s creation.

From nights around the campfire beneath endless star-filled skies, to river crossings, towering cliffs, and long desert walks — the scenery was truly out of this world. The Fish River Canyon is something everyone should experience at least once.

A special thank you to Oom Wikus for safely driving our bus, and to Oom Japie — who has hiked the Fish River Canyon more than 40 times — for sharing his wisdom, knowledge, and spiritual guidance throughout the journey. Your impact reached far beyond the hike itself.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, especially the moms and dads who accompanied the group. Your support, encouragement, and spirit made this adventure even more meaningful.

This was more than just a hike. It was inspiring, humbling, unforgettable, and a tradition that will surely set Berg-Op Academy apart.

We are grateful. We are privileged. Thank you, Berg-Op Academy. 🌍🔥🏕️

🫀 Science in action!🫁

Our Grade 3s had a "thumping" good time today learning about the heart! We were honored to host Dr. Leandra Visser, a veterinarian, who shared her expert knowledge with us. 🩺

From seeing a heart cut open to feeling the different textures of a heart, lung, and liver, it was a truly hands-on experience! 🖐️ The day ended with some fantastic group work as the learners created posters to show off everything they’ve learned about our amazing bodies. 📝✨

Thank you, Dr. Visser, for such an interesting and memorable lesson!
