Welcome to

Roots Gymnasium

Giving our children the roots to grow and the wings to fly.

Welcome to Roots Gymnasium Private School

A place where students, teachers and parents form a strong community, extending beyond the classroom, where everyone is accepted and valued. It’s a place where lifelong friendships are forged, where lives are changed, and where children are prepared for future successes.
