About us: A legacy of care and commitment
The Caden Academy, formerly known as SNAP Southern Suburbs, was founded in 2015 by Caden Steenveld's parents in collaboration with the Special Needs Adapted Program (SNAP). What began as a small initiative for three children has grown into a beacon of hope for families across Cape Town.
Our name change symbolises our journey of growth and dedication to providing the highest level of care and education to learners with special needs.
