• The school uniform is not compulsory and must be worn as often as possible. It is compulsory to be worn for excursions and/or special events, class photos, etc. so please ensure that your child has at least one full, neat presentable uniform.
• Children should be sent to school bathed, neat & tidy every day.
• Small tight clothing is not only uncomfortable for children, they embarrass them by the negative attention received due to constant exposure. No jumpsuits, no belts, no buckles and no tight buttons are allowed, as little bodies are too exposed during toilet routine and little fingers cannot open on time.
• Nails must be kept clean & trimmed.
• Boys: schoolboy haircuts only, no earrings, etc.
• Girls: neat hairstyles tied back or plaited, no grown upbraids, only small silver or gold stud earrings allowed, no makeup, no lip gloss, no high heeled shoes, no nail polish, etc.

• Non-payment of school fees is not tolerated and will result in the suspension of services followed by legal action.
• All fees are expected in advance every month, by the 1^st of each month from January to December even if you keep children home for whatever reason. It is unfair for the school to experience cash flow problems because some parents don’t pay on time.
• Arranged 15^th Payers MUST pay by the 15^th of each month. NO LATER.
• We do not accept part payments nor do we make payment arrangements. DO NOT pay as you feel without a discussion & agreement.

• One calendar month’s written notice is required for all withdrawals.
• Withdrawals for school holidays, i.e. July, December and January are not
• If your child is returning the following year, every month’s FULL school fees are expected irrespective of whether he/she attends school or goes away on holiday or is too ill to attend classes or is only starting the following month, etc.
• Unofficial withdrawals could result in non-acceptance of re-entry. Please notify us in writing if your child is not returning in the new school year.

• Parents who would like to change our agreement from a full day to a half-day during the course of the school year are required to give one calendar month’s written notice as this is considered a partial withdrawal. This change will not be permitted for holiday months only. Written notice is required to change from half-day to full-day, however, the service can be with immediate effort.

Please use one vehicle space only. Whether you are in a hurry or think you won’t be long, please park considerately in front of the fence outside the school to make place for other vehicles.

• Parents, please note that we are unable to make individual lunches for children with special dietary requirements. If there is anything that your child does not eat, please provide lunch for your child on that particular day of the week or pay cash and order from our FunCafe’ and we will deliver to your child at lunchtime and let our teachers know if you do this.
• We DO NOT provide meals during government school holidays and during the months of January, July and December. You may pay cash and order from our FunCafe’ and we will deliver to your child at lunchtime, let our teachers know when you do this.

DO NOT be offended and disrespectful should you receive this call, we understand that you are working.

• For security reasons, entry inside the school building is restricted. Even our parents are not permitted to be on the schools’ property outside of drop off/collection times unless you have an appointment.
• We do not celebrate birthdays at school. Kindly refrain from sending anything related due to the fact that our young learners have many allergies and fussy parents. They also come from various religious, cultural and economic backgrounds.
• We encourage all parents to support all Fundraising functions and events. These are not only fun for everyone and a good opportunity to interact with each other. Fundraising money goes towards the upkeep of our beautiful school and ensures that it remains in good condition and improves. Toys, swings, furniture, equipment, books, CDs, etc. break and wear out, and therefore need to be replaced constantly. It is not fair for your child to benefit from the fundraising efforts of others. Every contribution goes to a worthy cause – your child. Please do not confuse these with Excursions. Fees collected for excursions are only for the entry fees and transportation costs.
• We do not wash or bath children, and only change them into their extra set of clothing when necessary. ‘Dirty’, and ‘untidy’ children are not neglected, children. This just means they had a good day at school and learnt through active play.
• An R10.00 fine per phone call is a penalty that will be charged for phone calls made to you for the violation of a policy, e.g. overdue school fees, items missing from bags, etc. Remember that violating a school policy for the first time does not mean you are entitled to.
• We kindly request that parents not speak negatively about their child’s teacher or school in front of their children.
• The School Supervisors handle all school matters, however, if a problem persists you may make an appointment with the owner. Remember, the owner does not accept appointments over policies clearly defined in our Terms & Conditions, they are not negotiable.

• Once a month, on the first Monday of each month we have Market Mondays. Each child from the Toddler group (2 years) to Grade R must bring R10.00 to participate. They will receive a variety of fruit chopped up at each mealtime for that day. This will teach them about the importance of fruit in our diets.
• Every Wednesday we have Water Wednesdays. Please send an easy sip bottle with tap water in and we will refill it as need be during the course of the day. No juice will be allowed at school on Wednesdays. Once again this is from the Toddler group (2 years) to Grade R.
• Every Thursday except during school holidays we have Development Thursdays. This is our Physical Education class which is conducted for our Grade RRR, Grade RR and Grade R learners. All children must come to school dressed in shorts, t-shirts and takkies. Those not dressed appropriately, unfortunately, have to set aside during this enjoyable lesson and feel left out. Parents, please pay attention to this.
• Our teachers are not your friends, out of respect please refer to them as Ms so and so. We’re not on a first-name basis here.
