Waterfall Pre-Primary just celebrated five years on the iThemba Campus – home of Waterfall Schools. Founded in 1974, Waterfall Pre-Primary was previously known as Crossroads Pre-Primary and originally based in the leafy suburb of Waterfall. This much-loved school, under the leadership of Dawn Crookes for over 20 years, had a strong reputation in our Upper Highway community for providing an excellent foundation for young boys and girls.
The current principal, Paula Mason, took the reins in 2012, and in 2015 the school was purchased by a local businessman. The team were delighted to relocate to a brand new modern, bright school building based on the picturesque 41–acre iThemba Campus in Hillcrest.
The first little feet ran into the school gates in January 2016 with 40 boys and girls enrolled.
Today Waterfall Pre-Primary is thriving with over 150 children – including a passionate team of eight teachers, seven teacher assistants, six interns and three aftercare teachers. Early Childhood Development expert, Sharron Lane, was appointed as director in 2018, and through the combined knowledge of Sharron and Paula, the curriculum has been enhanced to ensure joyful learning through play for little ones.
The school serves as the first step for children as they begin an educational journey on the campus up to Waterfall Preparatory and Waterfall College, as their feeder school.
