Tinkerbell Learning School

We believe that every child is a God given blessing, who enters the world with unique characteristics and potentials. As an educational facility we are given the honour and responsibilty by the parent, to embark with each child on a journey of educational growth and discovery. In our joint effort with parents and teachers, we constantly strive to develop and awaken in each child their creative potential, and nurture their physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing.

We aim to actively promote the growth and development of each child in care, while at all times accommodating each child's individual needs, circumstances and background. We aim to promote an environment which is safe, stimulating, homely, and loving - an environment in which each and every child feels secure, valued and respected. Each child must be given the opportunities to explore, discover, create and experience the world around them. A sense of contribution and achievement in a child's development is essential in fostering self-confidence and self-esteem.

We therefore encourage each child to reach their own potential at an appropriate pace, while cherishing and respecting their innocence and freedom. Our final goal and expectation is to see children graduate from our school, equiped with not only a wholesome education, but with the 'skills of life' to enable and empower them to proceed into adulthood with confidence, and a sense of compassion and tolerance - and conduct their lives with pride and dignity.

Young children have lively minds from the start. We strive to make the most of this natural quality by enabling them to experience, investigate, care about others, interact, develop and create. We strive to deepen and strengthen children’s natural abilities by providing them with the healthiest environment possible.

Tinkerbell Learning School believes that there are many ways of achieving excellence. Our school is dedicated to developing academically strong individuals with unique talents and strengths through a commitment to academics, arts, athletics, and co-curricular activities.

To provide a safe, child-centred academic environment which enables every individual to reach their full potential, as well as set in place the foundation for creative learning, and a productive life. We strive to cultivate and establish in our students a culture of life-long learning, wholesome values and an awareness of responsibility, in order to equip them with the skills to articulate and express themselves, understand and contribute to the the world around them. We believe that we challenge best when we support most.

Tinkerbell Learning School strives to equip students with excellent interpersonal cognitive, and communication skills. This is accomplished through the implementation of a challenging, integrated, and dynamic curriculum by a dedicated caring faculty committed to professional development within a supportive environment. Every one of our educators is a trained professional with a deep passion for education. Many of our educators have specialized training in fine arts such as music, art and theater.

At Tinkerbell Learning School our motto is: “one school – one family”. This means that we view the school as a ‘family of communal learning’ where every child is a precious individual who will embark on a journey of educational growth and discovery. We endeavour to awaken within each child their creative potential through educational processes that develop a passion for learning."

The school provides mainstream inclusive education for children with special needs, supported by our Special Needs Education Department (SPED) to help children with learning difficulties and special needs conditions such as Downs Syndrome and Autism Spectrum Disorders. The education plan for these children is prepared by SPED and passed on to the class teachers for mainstream inclusion. Children are withdrawn from mainstream classes for one hour per day for one-on-one tuition with our SPED teachers. The teachers monitor the childrens’ progress with regular assessment tests which are used to develop and review their education plans, and assist the mainstream teachers in their inclusion strategies.
