Principal's Desk

Dear Reader,

I would like to take a moment to write to you on all that has happened since our commencement in September 2022. There is always a kind of buzz on campus, students hopping, skipping, singing or dancing. Joyful noises all-around of students busy in group activities or presentation, actively learning their lessons for the day. It has been a wonderful journey of firsts that I want to thankfully share with you.

In the first year, we have seen the school grow in leaps and bounds, in the mix of cultures, Nationalities and the number of students joining us. And in line with our name we are privileged to house various International nationalities, we have students from Benin-Burkina Faso, Cameroon, China, France, Australia, South Korea, Taiwan, South-Africa and Madagascar.

The students seem to have adapted well to this new curriculum, they are reaching their learning milestones, in Mathematics, English, ICT, Global Citizenship and Science as well as our Unique offerings, such as music, art, Chinese, French, Malagasy, Reading and biblical studies, and not forgetting the students’ favourite, PE.

We believe that the students need to have a well-rounded educational experience and we trust that our educational offerings cater to this. We wholeheartedly believe in equipping our students with skills and knowledge that will inspire them to serve well.

Just as our students are growing in knowledge, our teachers are doing the same, all our teachers did the Pearson online training and we are pleased to announce that they have successfully completed the training. Our teachers cultivate critical thinking in creative classrooms to shape life-long learning in our students.

We are truly honoured to be an accredited Pearson Edexcel test centre. Meaning, I as Principle would not be left behind as the teachers and students were in a growth spurt, so I happily joined the Pearson Leadership Conference and from it I learned that 4000+ universities in the US alone accept students with their Pearson A levels, this includes prestigious Universities such as Yale and Harvard, not mentioning the rest of the world’s prestigious universities including Oxford and Cambridge in the UK and other well-known Universities around the world

This makes me so excited for our students, this level of education will most certainly open worldwide doors for them. The main topic discussed at the conference was shaping a better and bolder future for our students and I truly believe that we are on the cusp of this.

As I sit in the spirit of gratitude for all that has happened thus far, I would like to take another moment to thank our wonderful parents for being hands on in some of the activities that have taken place, activities such as the Korean food experience, Christmas in the garden, Chinese New Year, International Day and Sports Day.

With your assistance we have achieved a lot in a short amount of time and we as a school have come a long way. We are open for admissions from Early Years to our graduating class of Year 13.  

We are very excited to see all that God has in store for us in the coming future.  

Our doors are always open for you to come and visit our school. We believe you will experience a warm welcome as you enjoy our peaceful school environment meeting our friendly staff.

From a place where knowledge is transformed into wisdom. I greet you.

With great expectation,

Mr Jaco Struwig

School Principal
