A Legacy 125 Years in the Making
For 125 years, Kronendal Primary School has stood at the heart of Hout Bay — a place where children learn, grow, discover who they are, and learn to let their light shine.
From humble beginnings in 1899 to a diverse, vibrant community school today, our story is woven through generations of learners, parents, teachers, and community partners who helped build the foundation we proudly stand on.
