Parent Reviews
"The best decision I ever made was enrolling my son at Inside Out. The communication is out of this world. The teachers' dedication shows through my son's development."
"I went through a lot of turmoil whether to change my twin girls' preschool. I was not happy with the supervision at the previous school and decided to move them to Inside Out. Since then, I have never looked back. Gerda's teachers and staff is friendly and approachable. From the very first day I could see that they really care about the children and my girls love all of them. Thank you all at Inside Out for taking such good care of our babies."
"I recommend Inside Out 100%. Communication is excellent, they make you feel like family, my child loves it there. The burden of what to pack for lunch every day is one thing you don't worry about anymore."
"Great place to take your child for baby sitting, preschool or after care. My son loves the place — it's a struggle when I have to take him home. You rock guys!"
"Best school ever! They communicate with the parents, the staff are all friendly and you can clearly see how much they love each and every child. My son loves going there."

From the Principal's Desk
My husband and I dreamed of starting a small preschool and aftercare centre. During the uncertainty of COVID-19, we took a leap of faith and signed a lease on a preschool property in the heart of Kuruman.
On 6 July 2020 — the very day preschools were permitted to reopen after lockdown — we opened the doors of Inside Out Kleuterskool. On that first day, my own children were essentially our only learners.
Through hard work, long hours, determination, and a lot of prayer, families slowly began placing their trust in us. By the end of 2020, we had grown to 25 learners. In 2021, we started the year with 60 learners and added another 60 before the year was over. From there, the growth never stopped.
Today, Inside Out Schools serves more than 400 learners across multiple educational divisions and three neighbouring properties in Kuruman.
In July 2023, we expanded further by launching Inside Out Academy, offering education from Grade R to Grade 7. We also introduced Inside Out Smart Tutoring, providing academic support and online schooling for learners from Grade 7 to Grade 12, currently serving 25 learners.
Education has always been my passion. Over the past six years, I have completed more than 40 courses because I firmly believe that leaders should never stop learning. In 2024, I was appointed as an independent educator for Music Minds SA in the Northern Cape. In 2026, I became the franchise owner of Abacus Maths in Kuruman.
The greatest reward is watching children grow, develop confidence, and reach milestones they never thought possible. Knowing that we play a part in shaping their future makes every challenge worthwhile.
At Inside Out Schools, we believe that exceptional customer service, strong relationships with families, and genuine care for every child are the foundation of success. That philosophy has helped us grow from a small preschool with only a handful of learners into one of the largest independent educational groups in our community.
Our mission remains simple: to create a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and make memories that last a lifetime.
Who We Are
Inside Out is a school with a Christian character, managed with a great passion for children. Our mission is to make every learner believe and feel that they are capable, valuable, and responsible.
Every learner will be guided and taught by the example of dedicated, loving teachers to develop and maintain healthy social relationships.
Our learners learn through play — we follow Elda's Curriculum where they learn every day without even realising it. We focus on child development in every age group.
To expand Inside Out and touch the lives of as many children as possible — making a real difference in each one. With our passion for children, we believe we can improve the shortage of good quality early childhood education.
We aim to reach the whole Northern Cape and make a meaningful difference in as many children's lives as we possibly can.
What We Believe
Built on a Christian foundation, these values guide everything we do at Inside Out every single day.
Treat others the way you want to be treated — people, animals, and nature.
Love God, yourself, and those around you — family, friends, and classmates.
Be friendly and kind — a small act of kindness can make someone's whole day.
Good things take time. We learn to wait, to listen, and to try again.
Always tell the truth — to yourself and to those around you.
Talk openly — share how you feel and listen when others do the same.
Be humble — respect others and recognise that we can always learn and grow.
Be proud of who you are and celebrate your achievements and those of others.
Everyone deserves to be treated equally and fairly — always.
Take care of your belongings, your environment, and your actions.
Age Groups
Every class is designed specifically for that age group's developmental needs — with love, play, and purpose.
