A word from the principal
Welcome to the Robertson Preparatory School website. RVS is the home of the Klein Robbies. At our school we play and work very hard to make sure that every learner develops to the full.
We want to build confidence in every learner so that they can achieve the impossible. When we give children confidence, achievement, diligence and a sense of duty follow naturally.
Enjoy your visit to our website. It is a window on everything that happens in the life of a Klein Robbie.
With respect and appreciation,
Mrs Sanette Prins
Principal
Meet the staffOur classes
Every grade has three classes, and one of them is dual medium.
In the dual medium class, Afrikaans and English are both taught as home language. Parents can choose the class that suits their family best without having to look for another school. Academics are the cornerstone of our school, and our annual systemic results show it.
| Grade R | Afrikaans | Afrikaans | Dual medium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 1 | Afrikaans | Afrikaans | Dual medium |
| Grade 2 | Afrikaans | Afrikaans | Dual medium |
| Grade 3 | Afrikaans | Afrikaans | Dual medium |
Sport and culture
Sport is offered during school hours, so every learner can take part and not only the few who are picked for a team. Learners in Grade 3 stay later on Tuesdays and Thursdays for sport.
We also offer a wide range of cultural activities. Active children are happy and healthy children, and that is what we want for every Klein Robbie.
