Verbal reports are provided at the end of the 2nd term where parents are invited to discuss their child's progress.

We have an open door policy & parents may speak to the teachers with any concerns. Please make an appointment to do this however, in order to maintain confidentiality & also not to discuss issues in front of your child.

 

 

Masterchef

Each week one child has a turn to be a chef. Goodies are made at school on Thursday and sold on Fridays. This is a very special treat & our Masterchef feels very important.

Your child will be able to sell these to their friends for R2.
