We provide day care for children of all ages - from 1 year to school going age. All our staff have first aid and a natural love for working with children. Principal, Sharon is a "hands on person" working together with the staff, training, planning events, staff weekends away, etc
• Our aim is to provide a fun filled interesting day where children are able to learn through play • Security, we have security cameras at various points around the centre. Monitors are also set up so that staff may are able to identify persons wishing to enter the property • Operating Hours are from 07H00 till 17H30 (7am till 5:30pm) • Ages, We accept all children between the ages of 1 year and Grade R (preschool) as well as children who attend Primary school • Staff regularly attend first aid courses and regularly attend courses on education for children of all ages, dealing with mentally and physically disabled children, etc • Structure, In each classroom you will find a dailly programme on the board as well as a weekly theme. The day is structured for each group. • Outings, Children are taken on two outings per term. These outings usually correpond with the weeks theme, eg: Week 17 and 18 of the year may be the theme "People who help us". During week 17 we may visit the Mowbray Police Station and in week 18 we may visit the Observatory Fire Station. • Extramural Activities are run by teachers not employed by the Centre. They have a set fee. At present we offer: Swimming, Drama, Computers, Monkey Nastics, Action Ball, Communication Skills, Ballet and Karate. • Meals are prepared on the premises. We have wholesome cooked meals every day. Each week the menu is pinned up on the noticeboard for all to see. • Events, We have two concerts per annum where the children have the opportunity for parents to enjoy them perform on stage. • Graduation, We have an evening set aside especially for our Grade R class, we call it our Graduation Evening. Here the Grade R children receive trophies, certificates and a cd with approximately 300 digital photos of their years at Crayon Educare Centre. • Requirements, Attached to each registration form is a list of items which we require to be in the child's bag on a daily basis. The requirements vary, depending on the age of the child.
