Haras del Sur College opened in 2019 in the gated Haras del Sur neighbourhood beside Route 2 outside La Plata, on a plot of more than ten thousand square metres, and it was built around nature from the start: the school has its own vegetable garden and a course in ecology, and the children "grow healthy food" as part of their learning. There are three levels: the jardín from one to five years old, the primaria from 1st to 6th grade and the secundaria with the "Bachiller en Economía y Administración" orientation and strengthened English; all three run a full day, from eight to four. Teaching follows the project method, and in the senior school a Cambridge course is added to the Argentine diploma: "incorporamos el currículum de Cambridge IGCSE", with Business Studies, Economics, Global Perspectives and Design & Technology taught entirely in English. The children are divided into three houses with an oak emblem - red oak, blue oak and yellow oak - and a house is inherited within the family. Pupils are supported by psychologists and psychopedagogues of a separate team. The school does not publish its fees, its number of pupils or its teaching staff on the site, and its leavers have no list of universities either.

About the fees The school does not publish its fees on the site: it has no section on fees, and enrolment for the school year goes through an interview with the management.
Admissions Enrolment is open: the home page carries "Ciclo Lectivo 2026 / Matriculación Abierta a Toda la Comunidad", that is, the school takes families from outside the gated neighbourhood as well. An application is made through an interview with the management - "Solicite una entrevista con nuestros directivos y conozca la propuesta que tenemos para ofrecerle". The school names no entrance tests and no requirements of the applicant
Stages and year groups Grades Nivel Inicial (de 1 a 5 anos) - 1ro a 6to grado - Nivel Secundario (Bachiller en Economia y Administracion). The school describes its three levels on separate pages and gives each of them a full day from 8 to 16. Jardín: "Nivel Inicial / De 1 a 5 años / Jornada Escolar de 8 a 16hs". Primaria: "Nivel Primario / de 1ro a 6to grado / Jornada escolar de 8 a 16hs". Secundaria: "Nivel Secundario / Jornada Escolar de 8 a 16hs / Bachiller en Economía y Administración con Proyecto Bilingüe en idioma Inglés" - in which years it is counted, and how far it now runs, the school does not say. The school opened in 2019 with the jardín and the primaria, and the senior level came later.

CambridgeCambridge International Education
Part of the University of Cambridge. It allows a school to teach the Cambridge programmes and to enter pupils for the exams. There are four stages and they are authorised separately: primary, lower secondary, IGCSE and A Level. If the stages are known they are named in the line below; if that line is missing, the school does not publish them, and the Cambridge registry does not show stages either - it gives only the name of the centre, the country and whether private candidates are accepted. Cambridge calls what it does registration rather than accreditation, and the network holds about ten thousand schools.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: IGCSE (ages 14-16). IGCSE means exams at around Year 10 or 11, the British counterpart of a lower secondary leaving certificate.

Campus: The school stands on a plot in the gated Haras del Sur neighbourhood beside Route 2 at kilometre 69. On the size of the plot the school speaks in the words of press reprinted on its site: pupils will return to a plot of more than 10,000 square metres surrounded by nature, to games of exploration and discovery, to growing healthy food, care for the environment and sport. The same text names its own vegetable garden and a course in ecology: the school keeps up contact with nature through the subjects "Environmental Education" and "Vegetable Garden". The school lists no library, no laboratories and no sports halls or pitches separately. The school also names: a garden.

Reviews
No reviews yet. The community rating counts towards the score once a school has five verified reviews - until then we do not show a zero, so as not to mislead.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 7 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
