Welcome
A small school with a big heart
We are a registered independent Christian co-educational primary school following the CAPS curriculum. In our Grade R to Grade 2 classes, children learn in calm, unhurried classrooms where questions are welcome, effort is noticed and every child belongs.
We follow the CAPS curriculum, which we treat as the bare minimum expected of our teachers. Our classes go beyond it wherever a child is ready.
Parents are always welcome to walk through the school, meet the teachers and see an ordinary day for themselves.

Our classes
Grade R to Grade 2
Grade R
A playful, settled start to school, where routines, listening, sharing and early literacy and numeracy grow through play.
Grade 1
Reading, writing and number sense take shape with plenty of encouragement, repetition and celebration of small wins.
Grade 2
Confidence builds as children read on their own, write their own ideas and work with numbers more independently.
Inclusive learning
Every child learns differently
We understand that children do not all learn in the same way or at the same pace. Our teachers take time to recognise each child’s strengths and provide appropriate classroom support wherever possible. At JENS, children learn together in a caring environment where they can feel safe, included and encouraged.
