Did you know that Grade R is now compulsory in South Africa as part of the Bela Bill? If you’ve been considering enrolling your little one, now is the perfect time to secure their place.
Why Grade R Matters
Grade R is more than just an introduction to “big school” – it’s where the foundation for your child’s entire learning journey begins. Here’s why it’s so essential:
Builds strong foundations: Children develop early literacy and numeracy skills, setting them up for success in later grades.
Smooth transition to Grade 1: There’s a big jump from preschool to Grade 1, but Grade R bridges that gap, giving children the confidence and readiness they need.
Social growth and friendships: Children meet new friends, learn how to work in groups, share, and respect others’ differences—skills that are just as important as academics.
Boosts confidence and independence: With gentle guidance, learners adjust to routines, classroom expectations, and structured activities, preparing them for formal schooling.
Encourages curiosity and creativity: Play-based learning allows children to explore, ask questions, and develop problem-solving skills in a fun and engaging way.
Emotional readiness: Grade R provides a supportive environment where children learn resilience, self-expression, and coping skills that help them adapt to future challenges.
