About Duimpie Den
Duimpie Den Kleuterskool is ideally located in the heart of Rustenburg, right opposite Laerskool Vastrap. Our spacious classrooms enable little ones to learn through interactive play and offer them hands-on learning activities to encourage creativity.
Our large playground is laid out so that little ones can play and explore their natural surroundings. Our innovative teaching method promotes early-childhood development.
The educational philosophies and culture of communication, collaboration, creativity and critical thinking are supported and encouraged, giving our little ones a personal learning journey. At Duimpie Den we inspire little ones to develop a love of learning, as well as skills such as perseverance and adaptability.
Duimpie Den is a Christian-based pre-school and our teaching is offered in Afrikaans.
