Families enrolled in the accredited online school receive dedicated access to Virgin Active Clubs across the country.
JOHANNESBURG, May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Virgin Active South Africa And cambrillarn has signed a national partnership that gives families enrolled in an accredited online school access to Virgin Active clubs across the country.
Cambrilern Online School
This is the first agreement of its kind in South Africa between Virgin Active and a online school. It connects an established digital learning community to a national network of physical locations, and answers the question parents commonly raise when considering online schooling: where their children will be active and spend time with peers in person.
Virgin Active is positioning its clubs as social wellness spaces rather than gyms and as a third space between home and school or home and work. The partnership extends that position to a growing segment of South African families whose children no longer have a traditional school as their default daily location.
Cambrillearn said in a statement: “Online schooling delivers strong academic results, and families also tell us they want a real-world community along with it. This partnership puts that community in a place that parents and learners already know and trust. cambrian community Has been our digital home for years. It has a physical presence across the country from this week.”
Virgin Active South Africa said in a statement: “Virgin Active has been working towards becoming more than a gym for some time. We see ourselves as both a social wellness club and a third place between home and school, or home and work. Families with online schooling have a particular need for that third place, and Cambrillearn's national reach makes it a natural partnership.”
