Spark School officially open for business

Gwiba says that all the educators are specialists in the subjects they teach.
Leandy Linda, the founding principal, expressed her pride in the school and its new principal.
“Being the first principal of Spark Springs was a wonderful experience,” she says.
In 2019, the school offered classes to children from Grades R to Three with the promise to grow by a grade each year.
And this year a grade four class was added.
The campus has the school’s core values plastered at every corner: service, persistence, achievement, responsibility and kindness.
“We want the children to know and practice these values daily, on and off the campus,” explains Gwiba.
The school encourages the children by rewarding them for displaying these values.
