Grade R
Bright Buttons Pre-School offers a small intimate Grade R class with a maximum of 16 children allowing for more personal attention where children are able to develop at their pace. We believe in hands on learning and therefore most of our lessons are done through kinesthetic learning.
We offer specialist classes such as Drama, Playball, Music, Young Engineers and Science. In this way the children are exposed to a variety of different skills.
