estled in the picturesque suburb of Waverley, in Johannesburg,
St Mary’s School is an independent Anglican school catering for girls
Nfrom Grade 0 to matric. Little Saints, its pre-primary school, offers
schooling for boys and girls in Grades 000 and 00 (ages four and five).

Little Saints embraces the innovative Reggio Emilia approach, a child-centred
philosophy that values relationships and encourages young children to be
curious, express their ideas, and engage with their environment meaningfully.
Every child is regarded as capable and active, and the Reggio-inspired
classrooms at Little Saints are designed to spark creativity and foster a love
for learning through the provision of hands-on experience and collaborative
projects. As the children’s natural interests and talents are nurtured, they
develop a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

St Mary’s School, Waverley and its pre-school, Little Saints, exemplify all the
benefits of a holistic education, where academic excellence and the joy of
discovery go hand in hand.

To find out more and to experience firsthand the vibrancy that is Little Saints,
please join us on Saturday, 20 September from 10h00 to 12h00. For more
