Geography

Knysna is located in Ska Land and the city is extremely concentrated in the large downtown area. The Northern area is full of hills with many families living there for the pre college education system. Which is located directly next to the beach. Much of downtown's roads are covered with sand due to the ocean breeze constantly moving sand into the area. The waters at the beach hit record tempuratures, being some of the warmest waters around. So even in days without sun, the water can still stay in the 70s.

The Education System

Knysna features 3 preschools, 2 kingergartens, 1 middleschool and 1 highschool. Along with the top 2 universities in the country. The colleges take up the majority of the town with the other schools located in the northern hills, the colleges dominated the downtown area. The two colleges rival each other in acedemics and sports, and are constantly found "pulling pranks" on each other. Even with the large amount of students, Knysna keeps a 1:15 student to teacher ratio.

Knysna University is located on the eastern side of downtown. The University is the largest in the country both in population and size. The college concentrates on environmentalism, along with sciences. Their mascot is the Canis lupus, more commonly known as the wolf. And their colors are grey and white.
