Reading Program
We will have an extensive library at Bokamoso Private Primary School and encourage learners to choose their own reading books. In our Foundation Phase classes, we make use of the Letterland Phonics Program as well as the Time2Read application. We encourage learners to develop a love for reading. We also make use of level readers where the learners move from level to level as they progress with their reading.
Show and tell will also take place on a regular basis during school hours. This will encourage learners to speak with confidence in front of people.
Junior Etiquette Classes
This is included in school fees. Junior Etiquette Classes are not a cultural program but rather a fun, interactive way of introducing young children to the benefits of behaving and using manners that are universally accepted. Our Grade R - Grade 3 learners will take part in this initiative.
