Preschool Program at The Royal Learning Academy
Our Preschool Program at RLA is designed to be a nurturing and stimulating environment where young learners embark on an exciting journey of discovery. We recognize the importance of these formative years in shaping a child's future, and our program is thoughtfully crafted to provide a strong foundation for academic success and personal growth.
A Multifaceted Curriculum
In our Preschool Program, we believe in the power of early exposure to a diverse range of subjects. Our curriculum goes beyond the basics and introduces young minds to subjects such as:
Afrikaans: We begin introducing Afrikaans, a second language, at an early age. This not only promotes bilingualism but also enhances cognitive development.
Content Subjects: Our young learners explore history, geography, sciences, and emotional intelligence. This broadens their horizons and fosters a love for knowledge.
Animal Studies: We believe in hands-on learning, and our animal studies program allows children to interact with and learn about the fascinating world of animals.
Play-Based Learning
We understand that young children learn best through play. Our Preschool Program includes ample playtime, including messy play and tactile experiences. This not only makes learning fun but also promotes creativity, fine motor skills, and sensory exploration.
Cultivating Inquisitive Minds
Curiosity is at the heart of our Preschool Program. We encourage our students to ask questions, explore, and discover. We believe that nurturing inquisitive minds at an early age sets the stage for a lifelong love of learning.
Qualified and Caring Staff
Our dedicated team of educators is not only highly qualified but also deeply passionate about early childhood education. They provide a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment where your child can grow and flourish.
Individualized Attention
Every child is unique, and our experienced educators embrace this diversity. We take a personalized approach to teaching, ensuring that each child receives the attention and support they need to thrive. We celebrate their strengths and help them overcome challenges, fostering a positive attitude toward learning.
School Readiness: Equipping Young Minds for Success

The Importance of School Readiness
School readiness is about more than academic readiness. It's about preparing the whole child for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. It means nurturing their social and emotional skills, building their self-esteem, and fostering a sense of curiosity and independence. It's about creating a solid foundation upon which a lifetime of learning can be built.
