The Curriculum

Picture
The teachers of Grade R (Yellow Group), Blue Group and Red Group use the early childhood development school-readiness programme called "Day by Day". It is an excellent programme which ensures that all aspects of the departmental curriculum are covered. We have been using this programme for the past six years. The programme is updated regularly and this year the Grade R's will use the CAPS edition. The teachers are happy to tell you more about "Day by Day", so please feel free to ask.
There are various themes that are covered each term. We encourage you, the parents and guardians, to become involved in the themes, and the children are invited to do simple tasks at home and bring them back to Little Star.  Children in Grade R will be given homework tasks to do every week. It is vital that you encourage and guide your child and that the work is completed and sent back to Little Star the following day.

Reports are printed mid-year and also at the end of the year.  Reports can be faxed or emailed to the local primary schools on request, free of charge.
We have a qualified music teacher, Aunty Trish, who comes every Tuesday morning to teach the children songs, to play percussion instruments and to instil in each child a love for music. We have an annual Spring Concert and a Nativity Concert at the end of each year.

We have teacher-parent meetings in the first and third terms to discuss your child's progress. 

Please work with us so that your child will reach their full potential. Together, with teamwork and cooperation this goal can be achieved.
