Namibia: Namib High School Swakopmund

Sammy Tours Swakopmund

Namib High School founded as Stadtische Realschule mit Grundschule (Municipal High School with Primary School) during the colonial time of German South-West Africa in 1913 it is one of the oldest schools in Namibia. The building, which is still in use by the school and largely unaltered, was finished the same year, and on 18 October 1913 the Stadtische Realschule mit Grundschule was inaugurated. The school, since its foundation exclusively for white children, became a German secondary school called the Deutsche Schule Swakopmund, and in 1980 the Deutsche Oberschule Swakopmund. When Namibia became independent in 1990 doors were opened for all Namibian citizens. The school changed its medium of instruction to English language with German as a compulsory subject. The school then changed its name to Namib High School on 7 July 1997, in reference to the Namib Desert within which Swakopmund is situated.
