Scrummies, St Charles College Pre-Primary School

Scrummies logo Blue on W

Once you venture into our little school, you may find it very difficult to tear yourself away again! The air is abuzz with chatter, laughter and new discoveries. The magic of our Scrummies spirit quickly envelops you and in the blink of an eye, you find yourself on a swing, jumping on the trampoline, or digging in our giant sandscape with some newfound friends. When you need a breather, you might cuddle up in one of our book corners and immerse yourself in the pages of a book with a friend.

Scrummies houses the Pre-Primary phase of St Charles College, a through-school offering unsurpassed value in education. We strive to remain relevant and provide a global learning experience for boys aged three to 18 years old.

The classrooms, verandas and playground in Scrummies provide perfect opportunities for optimal exploring, experimenting and learning. Our well-qualified, passionate team of teachers understand the learning needs of little boys. Our approach is centered around the belief that children learn best through exploring with their senses and by following their intuition to solve problems and form new ideas. Well-designed facilities support our approach and boys have ample opportunity to test themselves physically and mentally, all whilst learning to be cooperative, considerate and kind to each other.

Our curriculum is designed to prepare our boys to start Junior Primary School well-prepared and with confidence. From Grade 000 we use age-appropriate and stimulating ways to introduce skills for reading and writing readiness. Boys are provided with endless opportunities to develop their problem-solving skills and understanding of mathematical language and terms. This learning is supported by opportunities for optimal physical development and a language-rich environment.

The Pre-Primary School grounds are securely enclosed in a 1200 square meter section of our 35ha campus, making our school a safe and secure space for little boys. However, we are blessed to have access to the entire campus and all its facilities. As a further part of the value offered at St Charles College, aftercare is included until 5pm during the school week.

The happy heart and spirit that exists at Scrummies speak to young and old. We would like to invite you to come and experience it first-hand, by popping in for a visit but, as we said, be warned… you may not want to ever leave again!
