We are committed to providing learners with an excellent education. That is why our approach to teaching the national CAPS curriculum is based on project-based learning and self-discovery. This approach helps learners use their intellectual abilities to explore the learning material in a manner that makes it real to them somehow. This happens through research, experiments and assignments along with regular teaching methods. Our foundation phase starts by helping Grade R learners get ready for the formal learning that starts in Grade 1. In this phase, they learn the basic foundations on which all further learning is based: Language (read, spell, understand, speak, listen) Mathematics (count, understand numbers, addition, subtraction and multiplication) Life skills (physical education, real-life experiences, problem-solving, creativity) In the intermediate phase, the work becomes less tangible or real, and more abstract. To do this, learners start with project-based learning, which means they do research, assignments, and experiments to explore the material outside just the textbook. Teaching takes place in English, and learners can choose Afrikaans and isiXhosa as additional language options. They also have Robotics as a subject in Grade 7. As part of the Curro school group, learners enjoy preference when transferring and applying to us from any school in the group. We help you through every step of the transfer process, so that you and your family can easily become part of our family. Our school is built on a balance of values that allow learners to learn and grow into the best versions of themselves.
