We strive to equip each child in the Foundation Phase at Van Riebeeckstrand Primary School with confidence to achieve to the best of their individual ability. We celebrate the uniqueness of every learner, where each one is seen as an individual. Although academic performance is important, we also strive to nurture the child’s physical, social and emotional well-being.
Our aim is also to develop critical thinking and problem solving.
Each subject has a set of textbooks as well as workbooks in which the learners work. We also follow a specific reading program where the learners are encouraged to take books home to read daily (both in Home Language and First Additional Language). The Grade 1 – 3 classes are equipped with white boards which enable us to extend the curriculum.
The following subjects are offered as set out in the National Curriculum:

In the Intermediate and Senior Phase we strive to build on the strong foundation laid in the Foundation Phase. Learners are introduced to new subjects and encouraged to be critical thinkers. We aspire to have learners who seek to extend their knowledge and to improve their skills.

We follow the National Curriculum set out by the Department of Education. There are both Formal and Informal Assessments which take place every term. A combination of informal and formal assessments are used to determine the final mark at the end of the term. Reports are thus also handed out at the end of each term, whereafter parent meetings are held in order to discuss the progress of the learners.
