Phambanisa Primary School was founded with a vision inspired by Chief Phambanisa Ngomane’s legacy. Chief Phambanisa Ngomane was a respected leader known for his dedication to the welfare and development of his people. His leadership and values have deeply influenced the ethos of our school.
Chief Lugedlane Ngomane, his father, was also a significant figure in our history, revered for his wisdom and guidance. By naming our school after Chief Phambanisa Ngomane, we honor both these leaders and their enduring impact on our community.
