Welcome

Welcome to The Lüderitz Blue School, a private international school offering the British National Curriculum to boys and girls from Grades 0-9. Our Secondary School is growing! If you are interested in later years, please get in touch for more information.

At the Blue School we know that our students are all as unique as the town of Lüderitz itself, where various industries, people and cultures come together, and the desert and ocean meet.

From a young age, our students are encouraged to be true to themselves, to believe in their abilities and potential, to follow their passions and to think and behave independently.

An internationally focussed centre of excellence, we offer a wide range of academic subjects, as well as a full programme of engaging and inspiring extra-curricular activities. Our students are taught to care for and appreciate the wonders of the natural world, with a particular focus on the desert and marine environments of Lüderitz.

We believe that a Lüderitz Blue School education enables children to grow into curious, bold, resilient and open-minded individuals who will take on the challenges of the future with a positive attitude, balanced mindset, and an endless love of learning.
