​
Liezl van den Berg,
Parent At Preschool
I want to thank you for your input over the past 2 years. I will definitely recommend Kwanda Kinetics to all our family and friends!
Theresa Wentzel,
Owner Of Preschool
What a privilege to have you at our school. We want you to be part of our curriculum for many years to come and are super excited about the future. Thank you for the passion that you have when it comes to children and their development. And a big thank you for keeping your fees affordable!

What Others Say
How We Do Things
OUR APPROACH
Health, Movement, Wellbeing
In 2010, Kwanda Kinetics was born in the middle of the night. Three o'clock in the morning, to be precise. The whole blueprint was written within 3 hours - with a clear vision in mind.
Causing a Kingdom ripple effect, we would live for God and impact our direct community through our calling as Kinderkineticists by unconditionally loving, respecting and developing each and every child that crosses our path in order for him or her to reach dizzy heights and be the best that he or she can be.
​
This is exactly what Kwanda is about! The word Kwanda means ‘to reach dizzy heights’ or ‘to excel’. Kinetics, on the other hand, means ‘motion’ or ‘movement’. If you combine these two, you get a special connection between movement and reaching your full potential.
​
Starting with only 18 children and 1 Kinderkineticst, the practice has since grown to accommodate 3 full-time Kinderkineticists who are contracted to 20 preprimary and primary schools as in-house and online Kinderkineticists. Together, they are working with an average of 2 000 children per week. Certain programs, products and services are also available online.
Our Development
And Therapy Centre
WHERE WE ARE TODAY
Today our child development and therapy centre reaches an average of 2 500 children per week. We guide, inform, consult and provide feedback to more than 5 000 parents, 250 teachers and 25 principals on a weekly basis.
​
We work in conjunction with numerous professionals including but not limited to nutritionists and dieticians, behavioural optometrists, audiologists, speech and language therapists, paediatric physiotherapists, paediatric occupational therapists, educational psychologists, social workers, play therapists, rheumatologists, podiatrists, paediatricians and neurologists.
​
​
WHERE WE ARE HEADING
Various preprimary schools throughout South Africa have subscribed to our EduMove program and are presenting this curriculum to all the children in their school on a weekly basis. This means that more than 1500 children are currently participating in EduMove. We hope to see many more children's lives being changed by this program in the near future!
We are also privileged that Prof Ben Coetzee at the Northwest University reviewed our sports development program called Kwanda Sport. We have also published our very own Sport Skills Group Screening Manual and are looking forward to having a full sports curriculum that will be available as part of our online subscription packages as well.
​
​
JOIN OUR MOVEMENT
AND BECOME PART OF THE FAMILY
​
Whilst the main focus will always remain on movement, our centre believes that children are unique, intricate beings. We therefore have an integrative, holistic outlook when it comes to the learning and development aspects of a child.
