How the School Works...
We enjoy God's blessings in so many ways...
The Glenridge elders closely oversee the preschool
The teachers are incredible, well-qualified individuals
Nicky Walton, our principal, is enjoying her fifth year overseeing our team
Our environment is clean, tidy and up to date, with a truly homey feel
to it
We have a great reputation, receiving many compliments
about 'our' children from surrounding schools
Never will you not hear a word shouted in anger at our school
Our main objective
is to teach the children about the Father heart of God. We have a
weekly Bible story, theme, memory verse and song. We encourage children
to make 'right choices' and we have the 'grow good'chair for those who need correction and encouragement.
We have a well-rounded and excellent School Readiness Programme, which ensures that every child is ready for formal
schooling and is accepted at their 'Big School' of choice. We Friends Preschool is
a feeder school to Glenwood Prep, Chelsea Drive Prep, Durban Prep
Boys' High, Maris Stella, Penzance and Gordon Road Girls' School, to
name the most common choices.
We welcome you to pop in at any time for a walk-through tour of of our school. Please note that our preschool is FULL this year, but there will be a couple of places available next year in the youngest group. 2011 is filling up very quickly too.
