About us

A community school shaping future-ready learners

Nong Modikwa Primary School serves Grades R to 7 in Hwibi Village, Bakone Blakfontein Circuit, Limpopo. Our learners are taught to read widely, think critically, use technology responsibly and strive for excellence.

Who we are

Nong Modikwa Primary School is a public primary school rooted in its village community. Every day begins with assembly, where learners are reminded of our motto, Strive for Excellence.

We are committed to effective teaching and learning, a curriculum-first approach, digital innovation, a strong reading culture, cultural heritage, discipline and community ownership. Our educators work closely with parents, the School Governing Body and partner universities to give rural learners the same opportunities as their urban peers.

Our library, computer laboratory and the Rural Digital Bridge programme are the engines of that promise — combining reading, research and practical digital skills from the Foundation Phase upwards.
