Our Teaching Philosophy

As part of the Curro school group, we are committed to delivering a high-quality education through the national CAPS curriculum. Our teaching approach is based on project-based learning and self-discovery, allowing learners to explore concepts beyond the textbook through research, experiments, and practical assignments.

Regular assessments and tests form part of the learning process, while learners are encouraged to make meaningful connections between ideas, apply their knowledge in real-world contexts, and develop strong critical-thinking skills.

Foundation Phase: Building Strong Foundations

Our foundation phase focuses on preparing Grade R learners for the formal learning that begins in Grade 1. During this important stage, learners develop the essential skills that form the basis for all future learning.

• Language: Reading, spelling, understanding, speaking, and listening
• Mathematics: Counting, number concepts, addition, subtraction, and multiplication
• Life Skills: Physical education, real-life experiences, problem-solving, and creativity

Intermediate Phase: Growing Independent Thinkers

In the intermediate phase, learning becomes more abstract and analytical. Learners engage in project-based learning that encourages research, investigation, and experimentation, helping them understand concepts more deeply and independently.

Robotics is offered throughout the school, supporting logical thinking, creativity, and digital literacy as learners progress.

Sports and Cultural Activities

An essential part of the Curro education is balancing academics with sports and cultural participation. Our activities promote teamwork, collaboration, confidence, and personal growth.

• Art classes
• Soccer
• Other tailored sports and cultural activities

Our focused range of activities is designed to reflect the interests of learners in our community, ensuring that every child can find something they enjoy.
