Foundation Phase
A Strong Start to Lifelong Learning
Welcome to the Foundation Phase: Grades R to 3
The Foundation Phase is where the journey of learning begins with enthusiasm and care.
Our phase includes three Grade R classes and five classes each for Grades 1 to 3, designed to cultivate a love for learning and support the overall development of every child. We emphasize play-based learning in Grade R and build on these foundations through engaging, inquiry-based, and project-based learning in Grades 1 to 3. With a balanced approach that nurtures academic, social, and emotional growth, our dedicated teachers provide personalized attention in a safe and supportive environment. Join us in creating a strong foundation for a lifetime of learning and discovery.
