Our school’s senior primary department is focused on providing holistic education to our learners. The senior primary grades consist of educating learners in grades 4-7, where we provide a nurturing and engaging learning environment that balances academic excellence with personal growth. Athlone Primary School follows the National Curriculum Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS) Curriculum whilst ensuring our learners develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills.
Our dedicated teachers encourage active participation, teamwork, and leadership, which are essential in preparing our learners for their future careers and life beyond the classroom.
Our extracurricular activities, such as sports, arts, and community outreach programmes, provide opportunities for our learners to explore their various interests and talents while instilling the values of teamwork, responsibility, and compassion.
We are committed to providing an all-rounded education that empowers our learners to become well-rounded individuals who are ready to make a positive impact in society. Our Grade 7 learners achieve very good results annually and attain acceptances into various prestigious high schools in and around Pietermaritzburg. Join us, and let us work together to build a brighter future for our learners.
“No task left undone
No star too far
As we reach towards our destiny!”
