Academic Curriculum

School Readiness Programme (Grade RRR – Grade R)

This programme is designed to enhance your child’s creativity and encourage self-discovery. the Grade RRR and RR classes are taught the skills of working together in small groups and the basic concepts of numeracy, literacy and life skills. Our programme also focuses on the emotional and physical development (both fine and gross motor skills).

The Grade R classes have opportunities to become familiar with the Primary Campus thus enabling an easy transition to Grade 1. This is achieved by weekly Computer, Music and Physical Education lessons.
The Grade R children also attend weekly Assemblies and Chapel Services.

Academic Programme (Grade 1 – Grade 7)

We believe that teaching children in a natural co-educational environment prepares them for life. This natural context facilitates healthy gender interaction and creates a balanced curriculum.

At Epworth Co-educational Preparatory School, we honour children and through our multiple intelligences approach, we uncover their strengths and nurture them.

Through experiential and hands-on learning techniques our highly qualified and dedicated staff will enable your child to become an independent thinker.

Epworth offers a balanced education programme that encourages critical thinking and problem-solving while emphasising the development of basic skills as a foundation for all learning. children are encourage to become independent thinkers as this builds self-confidence and a sense of responsibility. Their interpersonal skills are developed as they learn to work in groups.

At Epworth we celebrate children’s strengths.
