Special Note for Grade 1 Parents:
Grade 1 children will finish school at 12:30pm until half-term of the first term. Thereafter, they will finish at 2.00pm.
It is our experience that by easing the children into the longer academic day as well as introducing them slowly to our sport programme results in a far smoother transition into ‘big’ school.
Half-term: School closes after sport and activities on Wednesday
(JHB & DBN buses leave early on Thursday)
End of term: School closes at 10:00am

Children with dietary requirements will need a doctor’s note and complete the Capitol Caterers Food Allergy and Intolerance Form. If parents would like to leave food items in the kitchen for their child, please provide the food in a marked container with the child's name and grade. Please update the kitchen should any changes to your child's dietary needs change.
