Academics
Foundation phase: Grade R to Grade 3
In the foundation phase, we focus on teaching the foundational
skills, concepts and knowledge which are required for further
learning. We offer a vibrant, invitational atmosphere where the
learners enjoy coming to school and where they acquire a love for
learning that will sustain them throughout their school years. We
acknowledge the potential in each learner to reach optimum ability;
therefore, there is less emphasis on competitiveness and more
emphasis on individual achievement. We create opportunities for
personal growth in independence and responsibility so that learners
can take up the challenge of being personally responsible and
accountable for their actions in the intermediate phase.
The three main learning areas in the foundation phase are:
-
Language and literacy
-
Mathematics
-
Life skills
Perceptual development forms an integral part of all learning in the
foundation phase, and includes gross motor skills, sensory motor
integration, perceptual motor skills and language development.
Robotics lessons form part of the curriculum.
Intermediate phase: Grade 4 to Grade 7
In the
intermediate phase, the emphasis is still on establishing basic
foundations but learners are led into more abstract thought and
independent work. Application of skills and concepts is also a focus
area in this phase. This phase aims to prepare learners for the
senior phase in the high school.
