About Liberty Heritage School Ongwediva, Namibia Liberty Heritage School is an extension ministry of The Foursquare Church  had its beginning in January of 2000 after the Lord showed Pastor Gabriel   a vision for a ministry without any denominational restraints or traditional limitations. The first church facility was located near University of Namibia Engineering Campus in Ongwediva .Pastor Festus Negumbo was called to be the school’s first administrator and was assisted  by his wife who is currently   the principal of the lower primary school which is in the   old  wing of the  school. During this time the school met in the church building. The school started with a nursery and  grade 0 class with a staff   of   3 including the  senior administrator Pastor Festus Negumbo. Every year the school expanded  by a grade .In  2011 ,the school enrolled the first secondary phase learners who completed their  grade 10 in 2013.The group performed very well with a pass rate  of  100%.This prompted  more demand for  places in both  the primary  and  secondary phases .The increase of the enrollment was  a big challenge to the church and the school. More  space   for expansion was needed. The church purchased land two blocks away from the old  school. The  aim was to build more classrooms for   the upper primary and the secondary phase. Construction was completed in  June of  2012. The upper primary and the secondary students   had to relocate to the new  wing. With this relocation  a new principal, Marcia Gilmore, was hired to head the  upper Primary and the secondary phase .In 2014  the Marcia  Gilmore returned to America, and was replaced  by Pastor Epafras Shilombuelwa as the principal.
