School Fees

The fees are determined by our small class sizes and staff ratio. We pride ourselves in our small class sizes of 10 to 12 children in a class and a max of 14 children in the older classes. There is an assistant in each class as well , making the ratio of child to adult 5:1 and 6:1, allowing us to give your child significant individual attention.

The fees are calculated annually, and for convenience are payable at the start of each month for 12 months from January to December, on or before the first day of the month.

Please contact the school for the latest fees.

Acceptance Fee: On accepting a place at Bright Buttons a once-off, non-refundable, acceptance fee of R3 100 (for 2023) is payable, which will confirm and secure your place as well as include a T-shirt and hat on starting at the school.

Annual Admin/Stationery Levy: This is an annual fee of R1 150 (for 2023) which covers the cost of a notebook, stationery, library bag, flip file, weekly Baker Day treats, and facecloth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I send my child part-time?

Yes! Your child can come part-time, either 2 days or 3 days a week.

Does my child need to be potty trained to attend Bright Buttons?

No. We follow the child and when the child is ready, and together with the parents we will potty-train the child.

Are all your classes small?

Yes we believe in giving children individual attention and that is not possible with big class sizes of 18 to 20 kids so we restrict it between 10 – 14 kids per class, depending on the age group. . We can do so much more with each child when the classes are small and they love all the attention.

Yes, we do offer aftercare until 5pm.

Are the Aftercare fees included in the school fees?
