Our curriculum & learning approach

• We follow the CAPS curriculum, ensuring our students meet the required standard
• All our textbooks are CAPS-approved, guaranteeing relevance and quality.

• Our reading approach focuses on developing phonetic awareness, decoding skills, and comprehension.
• We use Jolly Phonics and other phonics techniques to create a solid foundation in reading.
• Read Aloud: Our "Read Aloud" period focuses on pronunciation, sight words, and vocabulary building using flashcards and a whole language approach.

We use a multi-faceted approach, including instructional, hands-on, and research-based styles. We encourage self-directed learning with resources like NumberSense Workbooks and Windborne.

 We incorporate hands-on, project-based learning across all subjects, promoting critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving. 

 At Soneike Private School, our Further Education and Training (FET) program focuses on providing a comprehensive education. As part of our curriculum, we require students to take the following compulsory subjects:

•⁠  ⁠Mathematics

Important Note:

We integrate Christian faith into our daily practices, including prayer and Bible verses..

We dedicate one hour daily to extramural activities, supporting classes, physical education, and study skills development.
