CLASSES
Our learners are divided into the following three age groups:
Age 18 months to 3 years class – this provides the most basic education a child can have and we use the NCF (National
Curriculum Framework) as the method of teaching.
Age 3 to 4 years class - this class is the next level of basic education as the learners from the first class continue to
learn through NCF.
Age 5 to 6 years class(Grade R) – through the use of CAPS(Curriculum Assessment Policy Statement) this is the last level
class of the centre and the learners are prepared for Grade 1.
