our story

A little school with a big heart.

We opened our doors in Van Riebeeck Park in 2007 with one classroom and eight children. Nearly two decades later, we still know every child by name — and still greet each morning like it's the first.

Children at circle time

what we believe

Little humans, held gently.

We believe children learn best when they feel safe, seen and loved. Everything else — the reading, the counting, the confidence — grows from there.

  • · Small classes, low ratios, and real relationships
  • · Play-based learning aligned with the DoE curriculum
  • · A gentle Christian foundation, woven through the day
  • · Meals cooked on-site, nap times respected, fun taken seriously

a note from the principal

"The first years are the ones a child carries forever. We're honoured, every single day, to be part of yours."
