Welcome to our Pre-School!
Our school motto is “Certum Pete Finem”; this is Latin for, “Seek a definite goal”. If you want to become successful in life, you must have a definite goal — where you want to go, what you want to become, where you want to see yourself in the future. A definite goal will help you to remain focused on the work that matters most.
Founded on the Catholic Marist values of humility, simplicity and modesty, we are guided by the example of St Marcellin Champagnat, our founder, and aim to produce resilient young people who are eager to make a difference in the world.
Our Pre-School offers a safe, nurturing and empowering learning environment for children ages 3 to 6. Students are taught how to solve developmentally appropriate problems, practice mutual respect, learn important routines and work habits, and build confidence as they discover and learn more about the world around them.
An expansive play area allows students to play on multi-sensory equipment and experience sensory play. Through purposeful play, our children are on a journey of self-discovery, exploration, curiosity, challenge and empowerment
Guided by caring nurturing teachers, with deep expertise in early childhood development, our students take risks and tackle challenges at their own pace.
Gaining independence, resilience, and academic prowess through their early years at Marist Brothers Linmeyer, our students emerge fully ready for the next step in their educational journey.
We look forward to welcoming you to our happy family!

SPIRITUAL JOURNEY
Our Pre-School students are continually encouraged to follow Jesus in the Way of Mary. Prayer and praise are also encouraged through song. Bible stories are read and shared. Moral lessons from these stories are discussed, encouraging students to be respectful, loving and caring towards one another.
Students are exposed to Catholic religious celebrations, as well as those of other religions, so as to encourage acceptance of others.
Pre-School Curriculum
Our curriculum is child orientated and adapted to the age, ability and developmental stage of the children. Our Pre-School works within the guidelines of the IEB (Independent Examination Board) three term curriculum. As an independent school and passionate about providing programmes that support children’s growth, we have the ability to equip our children with important life skills.
AFTERCARE
Our Pre-School Aftercare students are given lunch at 12h15 as well as fruit, sandwiches, juice and water throughout the afternoon. There is supervised free play from 13h00 – 15h30 so as to allow those attending extra-curricular activities to come and go with their coaches as timetabled.
From 14h30 – 15h00 students have snack time (students may bring a lunch box of healthy snacks) and chat-time with their friends. Supervised free play with their “home toys” then takes place until 15h30. At 15h30 our Pre-School students join our Aftercare Centre where they are supervised until closing at 17h30.
OUR HOLIDAY PROGRAMME
Our holiday programme runs during the April and August holiday. At an additional fee, from 07h15 to 17h30, students have so much fun and are kept entertained with fun-filled outings and activities.
