Curro Midrand Independent School gave preschoolers about to start Grade R at the school a tour of its Grade R centre on June 11, so they could get a feel for what it would be like to be in a big school.
Kayla Wolmarans, the school marketing manager said Grade R was the foundation of learning and once a child reached that level, they officially became learners in the language of schooling.
“Grade R helps prepare children who are entering Grade 1,” said Wolmarans, “It lays a solid and firm foundation on a child for cognitive functioning and behavioural and social development.”
Wolmarans added Curro Midrand Halfway Gardens Grade R centre was a safe, exciting, and secure environment for children to grow and learn.
The school’s resourced classrooms, expansive play areas, and rich curriculum ensured optimal learning in a playful and engaging manner.
Moreover, the school believed that children in Grade R were full of curiosity and creativity and have the ability to construct their own knowledge.
Walmarans concluded that the school prepared its learners for learning beyond the classroom as well. “Our staff is qualified professionals with a passion for cultivating a lifelong goal for learning and exploration within children.”
