Wierda Park Lower Primary Having Fun at The Farm





This week our wonderful Lower Primary class (aged 5-9) had a chance to dress up as farmers and farm workers for their play Down at the Farm. After a hard mornings work collecting eggs, milking cows and shearing the sheep they got to relax and enjoy their picnic lunch! This group clearly demonstrated excellent ad lib skills during their play. They used strong voices and their imaginations helped to bring the play alive! Well done to all of you!!

Irene Upper Primary 1 performing Fancy That!







It is so wonderful to see children being so creative - in this play especially the students were able to choose their own characters and develop them to their full potential! We especially loved how creative they were with their costumes!

Mime, Movement, Improvisations..just a snippet of all the areas we cover in our International Curriculum!







Having fun and making friends is part of what our fantastic programme is all about! Students that learn through having fun are more likely to remember what they have learnt! Many of our Afrikaans speaking students have found that their English Speaking skills increase rapidly due to our classes!
