Curriculum
Our
subjects
Literacy:
Sharp Kids is a multicultural school that warmly welcomes children from South Africa and beyond. While most of our students speak English, we embrace those with minimal English proficiency.
- We follow the South African curriculum for language development and complement it with the Jolly Readers program (aligned with the British curriculum), ensuring a strong foundation in literacy.
Mathematics:
Children develop skills in:
- Counting, number recognition, and understanding shapes, sizes, and weight.
- Comparing amounts, creating patterns, completing puzzles, and following rhythms.
The Arts:
Art strengthens essential skills needed for school readiness. At Sharp Kids, children enjoy:
- Arts and crafts, dress-up, and fantasy play, exploring their creativity with materials like paint, clay, and natural elements (e.g., branches, leaves, and mud).
Gross motor:
Early learning begins with the body. Movement primes the brain for learning.
- Children participate daily in outdoor activities, exercises, and obstacle courses to stimulate gross motor development.
Science:
Children are natural scientists, full of curiosity about the world around them.
- Our science curriculum nurtures this curiosity through hands-on exploration, encouraging discovery and a thirst for knowledge
