Our approach

We are committed to providing learners with an excellent education. That is why the way we teach the national curriculum is based on project-based learning and self-discovery. This helps learners use their intellectual abilities to explore the learning material in a manner that makes it real to them somehow – rather than just memorising the theory. This happens through research, experiments and assignments along with regular teaching methods.

Quality education from Grade R to 7

In foundation phase, we focus on laying a solid foundation on which all further learning is built. We focus particularly on Language, Mathematics and Life Skills. From intermediate phase, learners start adopting project-based learning, which involves self-guided research, and assignments or experiments to explore the material outside just the textbook.

  • Excursions and 'instappies'
  • Extra lessons included
  • Holiday care (additional cost)
  • On-site educational psychologist

'My daughter was recently accepted and what a massive difference it's made in our lives. She enjoys going to school and never complains (we used to struggle get her to school). I am very impressed with the help and attention she gets and the help. THANK YOU!'
