Harmony Education Primary is an Independent School that caters for students from Grade RR to Grade 9. We have small classes – no more that 15 students per class. We provide an education that is tailored to meet each child’s specific scholastic needs. We offer an environment where each child is encouraged to reach his/her full potential through the guidance of trained educators. We specialize in curriculum integration, which allows each child to develop not only rich content knowledge, but also application skills.
English
Reading is one of our focus areas at Harmony. English is taught using fiction and nonfiction books. The chosen books are related to the monthly themes and the CAPS school content is taught through the context of the chosen literature.
FAL
We offer Afrikaans as an additional language at Harmony.
Maths
Maths concepts are first taught in isolation, once learners have mastered the concepts, they are required to demonstrate this mastery in real-world scenarios.
Concepts are taught to learners in small groups, individual tasks are differentiated according to learner’s individual skill levels.
Mental maths is practised on a daily basis.
Integrated Studies
Monthly themes based on a culmination of topics within the CAPS school curriculum form the basis of Integrated Studies.
Learners complete various project-based activities covering a wide range of subjects.
Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence theory is applied to Integrated Studies, providing learners with a choice of activities, based on their preferred intelligence.
Values-based education is woven into the foundation of Integrated Studies, aiding learners in the positive development of their personal well-being through the development of their self-worth, empathy towards others and nature.
