Our Program

At Athlone Pre-Primary School we follow a programme which is based on sound education principles i.e: Our age and developmentally appropriate curriculum provide a balance between organized adult directed activities and free play.

Our Curriculum

At our preschool, we understand that every child is unique — growing physically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually at their own pace. That’s why we carefully tailor our informal curriculum to suit the developmental needs of each age group.

Rooted in the CAPS curriculum for Grade R and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for younger learners, our approach ensures a well-rounded foundation for lifelong learning.

We proudly include Physical Education and Speech & Drama as essential parts of our program — because we believe a healthy body fuels a sharp mind. When children are active, confident, and expressive, they thrive both in and out of the classroom.

Your Child’s Safety is Our Priority

All access points are securely closed from 8:15 am and carefully monitored throughout the day.

We follow a strict hand-to-hand policy this means all children must be accompanied to and from the classroom by a parent or guardian, ensuring a safe and smooth transition every day.
