St. Paul's College, Namibia

St. Paul's College is a private school in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. It was established in 1962 as a Catholic all-boys school. The Roman Catholic Church purchased a farm situated at the foot of Roman Hill in Klein Windhoek, a low density suburb. Due to the presence of hot springs and fountains at the time, it was possible to develop a vineyard, gardens and orchards where the school is currently located. When Namibia became independent in 1990, the school became multicultural and was opened to girls from grades 1 to 12.[1] St. Paul's College is Namibia's second best high school, behind St Boniface College (Kavango).[2]
