Stepping Stones Pre-Primary School was established in 1949 and is the oldest pre-primary school in Kimberley.
The large school grounds and spacious classes provide
the Kimberley pre-schoolers with the opportunity to learn school readiness skills in a friendly environment.
There are three classes catering for children from 2 to 6 years old. Qualified teachers and smaller groups are maintained.
Instruction is in English, although reading is presented in English
and Afrikaans.
To lay the very best foundation for future learning, the Stepping Stones curriculum focuses on number-concept and elementary reading. School readiness activities also form an integral part of our syllabus and the senior children are introduced to programs on the Smart Start computers.
Stepping Stones strives to develop the holistic child and therefore
the physical side of education is not neglected and Junior Gym, a gross-motor exercise program, as well as music forms part of the curriculum.
Through the numerous activities and programmes at the school, Stepping Stones is able to keep its focus firmly on the child
and live up to its motto:
A lovely place for little people filled with learning, love and laughter.
