Kloof Pre-Primary School is a well established school catering for little ones from 12 months old, up to and including Grade R. Our outstanding building and facilities date back to 1926 when the first Kloof Government School was opened on our premises, and we are privileged to have one of the most extensive and exciting playgrounds in the Upper Highway area.
At Kloof Pre-Primary we know that all children learn most effectively through concrete experiences. This is why all of our play areas are very carefully set up to allow for maximum exploration and learning through all of the senses. Recent research in education has proved that children under 6 years old do not learn as effectively when they are passive. It is active engagement that promotes mental activity, helping children retain new knowledge and integrate it with what they already know. All the activities throughout the day are, therefore, child-centred to provide ample opportunities for active learning, creativity and critical thinking.
We have 2 classes in our Playgroup with qualified ECD Educators, as well as an assistant in every class. Our Playgroup is a separate area of the school, catering specifically for the one to three year olds, allowing an easy and smooth transition into the Preschool. Our Preschool has 6 classes, from Grade RRR up to and including Grade R. All educators from Grade RRR to Grade R have four year teaching degrees or diplomas, and we are also privileged to have a teacher intern in every class.
During the year, we host a few “Playdate with Mom” events (usually held from 8:30am to 10:00am) for all parents and their little ones who are thinking of joining a school for next year. Bring a picnic and enjoy some time playing with your little ones, and getting to know our staff and more about out school. Keep an eye on our social media for when the next Playdate with Mom is taking place.
