S Catherine's Foundation Phase comprises double Grade 1, 2 and 3 classes.
The Foundation Phase at St Catherine’s School consists of double Grade 1, 2 and 3 classes, where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to be the best version of themselves. Our pupils learn in a loving and nurturing Christian environment where they are supported to grow in confidence, develop a love for learning, and enjoy each and every school day.
Our dedicated team of fully qualified Foundation Phase teachers, led by a passionate HOD, is committed to creating a dynamic and holistic learning experience built on excellence. In Grades 1 and 2, our classrooms are equipped with Smartboards, which bring lessons to life through interactive activities, adding excitement, variety, and a whole new level of fun to everyday learning.
At St Catherine’s, we believe in building strong foundations in Mathematics, English, and Life Skills. We encourage the development of critical thinking, creativity, curiosity, and the confidence to make good choices. Our smaller class sizes allow for individual attention, ensuring that each child progresses at their own pace and reaches their full potential.
In addition, our pupils benefit from specialist teaching in Physical Education, Computers, Music, and Drama. These subjects play a vital role in nurturing well-rounded individuals by developing teamwork, self-confidence, imagination, and effective communication skills.
We proudly celebrate diversity within our classrooms and foster a strong sense of belonging. Guided by our core values of trust, honesty, faith, and family, we create a supportive environment where every child feels safe, respected, and inspired to grow.
