The Grade 7 cap assembly will be held this Friday, 27^th February at 7:30 am.  Grade 7s will receive their red caps and recite the CHP cap pledge.  This is a very important morning for the Grade 7 children.

Please note that a company called The Care Junction will be conducting Hearing Screenings for Grade R- 3 children at CHP this Friday 27th of February 2026. Please note that there is an additional charge for this screening as it is done by an external company.

Parents Workshop

We are excited to invite you to join us on Saturday, 28^th February, for a Parent Workshop morning. This event offers you a valuable opportunity to gain insight into the specific programmes and learning strategies your child utilises at school. By participating, you will receive valuable information, as well as tips and tricks that will empower you to better support your child’s learning journey at home.  Please RSVP by clicking on the link https://forms.gle/AiZ2yaHj8yXjMLce6

 

Recycling

At our campuses we are busy preparing for a future with limited water supply. During the recent water shortages, we were able to assist our CHP and 345 families too. To further boost our future sustainability, we will be complementing our current borehole with a backup support system. Unfortunately, that source is positioned where our recycling bins are located. Thus, our current recycling programme will be suspended until a new recycling depot is established.

 

Drop-off and collecting. Car park manners and stop-and-go zone.

Despite my previous request, I note that this behaviour continues without regard. Please note that the roadside alongside the aftercare/ music block is strictly a stop-and-go zone. If you need to get out of your car you will be blocking the flow and you should have parked in a parking bay! A big concern is our children’s safety – if you have parked in that zone then they have to move between cars to get into the school – that is a risk to them. I ask all parents to please respect this as everyone is trying hard to drop off and get back into traffic to get to work and I would hate your selfishness to be the reason for one of our little ones to come to harm!

Lunch Programme 

The children are enjoying the snack and lunch that they are receiving daily.  Lunch is optional for all Grade 1-7 learners.  You can choose the lunch programme at an extra charge of R1 500 per month or you may pack your child’s own lunch.  Please email Karen Visser: fees@carlswaldhouse.co.za if you would like your child to be fed at school.

Gr 1-7: If your child is not on the school lunch programme and you are packing their own lunch, please ensure that you pack enough lunch for your child.  They will require a morning snack, lunch and an afternoon snack. NO sweets/ takeaways or fizzy drinks are allowed.
