Programme & Classes

Our Programme
and Classes

Our program is designed around the CAPS curriculum and revolves around four essential components. When planning our lessons and program, we utilize various resources that have been updated to align with the CAPS standards.

SOCIAL

At Kids@home, our Children communicate with others verbally and nonverbally to engage the world around them. As they make new friends, they gain the confidence, self-esteem and negotiating skills necessary for a lifetime of healthy relationships.

EMOTIONAL

Our Children enjoy a safe, nurturing "home away from home" environment where they are able to express themselves and understand their own unique identities. As they grow, we hope they will gain the comfort and confidence to forge trusting relationships, value their individuality and have fun in the process.

PHYSICAL

We focus on the physical health and well-being of each Child, so that they grow up safe and strong. Motor skill development, co-ordination, mobility and exercise all help in developing a healthy body.

INTELLECTUAL

Our learning programme is aimed at building brain power by supporting the development of judgment, perception, memory, reasoning, critical thinking, and language through a series of age-appropriate cognitive activities. Pre reading, prewriting and early math’s are important as our Children experience the world around them.

To maximize each child’s learning experience, we offer:

Small classes to ensure that each Child has opportunities to work individually with a teacher.
A program that is based on the CAPS curriculum and carefully considers the various development areas and stages of a young child.
Several opportunities for stimulating outings and excursions.
A range of teaching methods that support the different learning styles.
Activities that are designed to best equip and prepare our children for Grade 1 (school readiness).
Ongoing assessment of each learner to carefully observe and manage their progress.
A range of Intra- and extra-mural activities
