Meet the Owner – Larrisa Beeslaar
My name is Larrisa Beeslaar, and I am the proud owner of Dwergieland Pre-School, a school that has been part of the Lydenburg community since 2012. As a wife, mother of two beautiful children, and someone who has called Lydenburg home for almost my entire life, I understand the importance of providing children with a safe, loving, and inspiring environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive.
I completed my schooling at Laerskool Lydenburg and Hoërskool Lydenburg, and my passion has always been to invest back into the community that helped shape the person I am today. Working with children is more than just a career for me—it is my calling. Every child deserves to feel valued, encouraged, and supported as they begin their educational journey, and I believe that the early years lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning.
At Dwergieland, we are committed to creating a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels at home. Our dedicated team focuses on developing each child's academic, emotional, social, physical, and spiritual well-being through meaningful play, structured learning, and individual attention. We believe that every child is unique, learns at their own pace, and deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential.
As a parent myself, I know that choosing a preschool is one of the most important decisions a family can make. That is why we strive to build strong relationships with our parents, working together to provide the very best start in life for every child entrusted to our care. We are passionate about creating happy memories, celebrating milestones, and helping children develop confidence, kindness, independence, and a lifelong love for learning.
Over the years, it has been an incredible privilege to watch hundreds of children grow from shy little toddlers into confident young learners ready for primary school. Seeing our former learners flourish and hearing about their achievements is one of the greatest rewards of what we do.
At Dwergieland Pre-School, we are more than just a preschool—we are a family. We believe in creating a place where children are excited to come every morning, where parents have peace of mind, and where learning is filled with laughter, creativity, discovery, and love.
I look forward to welcoming you and your little one to the Dwergieland family and sharing this special journey with you. Together, we can give your child the best possible foundation for a bright and successful future. ❤️🌸 Dwergieland Kleuterskool
