Benga Riverside School is located at the confluence of the Revúboé and Zambezi rivers. The campus contains a nursery and primary school, with a layout designed to shelter its young occupants physically and figuratively. Administrative offices are at the entrance, with classrooms situated further back, and walls are patterned with small recurring voids throughout, allowing light and transparency to evoke feelings of trust from its students. A secondary school will follow.
