Full-Day Grade R Program

Give your child a full day of learning, play, and care in a nurturing environment!

In the Grade R phase, our educators begin cultivating a love of learning, through Christ-centred, play-based methods, in a farm-like environment. Our young learners gain a range of skills to prepare them for primary school, including social, emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual. 

  • Christ-centred
  • Play-based learning where the learners are seen as active participants in the learning process
  • Play ball included 
  • Safe environment
  • CAPS curriculum
  • Learners also participate during class time in a “basic Robotics program.”

Grade R School Readiness

Regular communication between Grade R and Grade 1 teachers ensures that Grade Rs reach their school-going goals. 

#Discoverland

Our secure play area, #Discoverland, has been designed specifically for our Pre-Primary classes to learn effectively through play. It consists of, amongst other things,  storyland centre, “messyland” kitchen and numerous climbing, hanging, crawling, and jumping apparatuses, for physical and sensory development. 

PlayBall

PlayBall uses sport as a powerful tool to support the overall development of young children. Through fun, structured, and age-appropriate activities, learners are introduced to the fundamentals of movement, coordination, and teamwork.

With its multi-sport approach, PlayBall equips children with the foundational skills needed for a wide range of school sports. Beyond physical development, the program also encourages confidence, discipline, and a love for active participation—all in a safe and encouraging environment. PlayBall is included in school fees.
