From Grade 1 to Grade 3, learners are actively engaged in exploring the various learning areas available as per the CAPS curriculum. These are the stepping stones for their preparation for the Senior Primary Phase but we have added a number of programmes to enhance and deepen the learning experience.
Emotional intelligence and Entrepreneurship is integrated within every subject. All learners are introduced and taught various skills to be able to successfully navigate the world of LEGO® Robotics.
Relationship building is the foundation of our educators approach to care and love for every learner in our care. Our educators are tuned in to the needs of the learners and guide them with love and passion to develop amongst others, emotional intelligence, entrepreneurial thought, inter personal skills and find a deep sense of knowing who they are. We care by expecting the best of each learner.
These expectations include making students responsible for utilizing learning strategies, exerting effort, and seeking new challenges. Overall our educators SHOW they care and that makes a world of difference to a learners emotional wellbeing and willingness to take on challenges beyond their capabilities.
