The Circus Has Come to Town!!

The children who take part in our Kindy Programme at First Friends Montesorri School loved their theme this week! They were clowns and their wonderful teacher Larisa was their Ringmaster! Our Kindy Programme is designed for 3-5yr olds and aims to give pre-schoolers confidence & self esteem as well as

skill in verbal communication. Classes help to develop important life skills such as:

listening, sharing, taking turns, following instructions,sequencing & memory skills and vocalising thoughts & emotions.

Wierda Park Drama Classes Nearly full!!

The Helen O Grady Drama Academy operates its drama classes in Wierda Park at the Reformed Church on the corner of Willem Botha and Meyer Streets. The classes are very popular with children attending from all different areas in Centurion and even as far as Laudium!

They are learning so many important skills while having enormous amounts of fun!! The children whose home language is Afrikaans have really improved their English skills!

Here you can see the Lower Primary class have dressed up for their play called Aladdin and the Lamp! The Upper Primary class really enjoyed staring in their play this week called The Ice Cream Factory!
