Preschool in Nzhelele Biaba (3 – 5 years)

3 – 5 years

This is where school readiness is built. Our preschool programme covers pre-reading, pre-writing and early numbers through play, so children walk into Grade R already confident with a pencil, a book and a classroom routine.

What your child gets

Phonics and pre-reading

Letter sounds, rhyming and story sequencing — the foundation of reading.

Numbers and patterns

Counting, sorting, shapes and simple problem solving with real objects.

Fine motor skills

Cutting, threading, playdough and drawing to build a strong pencil grip.

Confidence and speech

Show-and-tell, singing and drama so children speak up in front of others.
