The hostel caters for learners from Grade 1-7. Boys and Girls are housed separately. The grade 1-3 learners are accommodated in the "Cradle" and are supervised by kind, motherly matrons and teachers who go over and above the call of duty.
The grade 4-7 learners share pleasant four bedroomed dormitories. Rules and regulations ensure that the hostel is well run. The warm, cosy dining room has a fully equipped kitchen that supplies the learners with three balanced meals a day. Our hostel menu is compiled by a professional nutritionist ensuring our children are nourished correctly according to their age and gender.

There is a number of positive things to consider when making this decision. The picturesque Magaliesburg Mountains allows our children to learn in a tranquil and safe environment. Our learners are encouraged to be independent and self disciplined. A hostel is a place where strong, positive friendships are formed for life. Our learners become part of the Bekker family and are loyal to each other. Our learners make friends with children from all echelons of society and this stands them in good stead as they become well rounded young adults.
The hostel also teaches them to take responsibility for their actions. At Laerskool Bekker we endeavour to give the learners a 'home away from home' experience while still maintaining a structured and disciplined environment. We motivate our learners to speak up for themselves and take part in the extramural activities that are offered after school . Our School Values and Code of Conduct are instilled in our learners, teaching them to be honest and above reproach.
