LITTLE school for pre-school children. Ages from 3 - 6yrs.

This will be mainly academic, using the latest technology to assist the
children with their learning experiences.

Art & Culture

Arts and Culture are seen as an indispensable part of educating a child and Greenwood is no exception. Within the teaching day our teachers use both arts and crafts as a tool for further understanding and cognitive development; all the senses are employed in our style of teaching so that every avenue has been employed to open up the child to learning. As such it is not unusual to see our classes covered in colourful and interesting crafts the children have made or used in their everyday classes.

SPORT

Greenwood offers cricket, tennis, and swimming in the Summer months and hockey, soccer, and ball games in Winter. Swimming is undertaken at the Olympic pool at the local gym and the field sports take place on the premises using junior pitches. Plans for the enlargement and upgrading of our field are currently underway.

ACADEMIC STRUCTURE

Pre-School:
The Pre-School consists of one toddler class and two pre-school classes. In the pre-school we concentrate on teaching using the Montessori method. Thus multi-age mix is used within the two pre-school classes - this means that the ages in each class are from 3-6 years which allows for both individual and social development. The Montessori philosophy is more easily understood by the following line: "Children learn by a process of discovery rather than being taught by rote".

Welcome to Wittedrift High – the small school with the HUGE heart.

Situated in the beautiful Bitou valley where the cry of the Fish Eagle often competes with the song of the exquisite Knysna Loerie, Wittedrift High provides schooling to children of the greater Plettenberg Bay area – some even come from Tsitsikamma in the East or Sedgefield and Knysna in the West.

PLETTENBERG BAY PRIMARY SCHOOL:
Is an English / Afrikaans parallel medium school, situated in the jewel of the Garden Route on the Keurbooms Lagoon. Whilst emphasis is placed on excellence in academics, both Sport & Arts & Culture play a pivotal role in the education & development of each learner as a whole.
