| Preparatory School Choosing the right school environment for a child is, without doubt, one of the most important decisions that a parent can make.
At Fairholme our objective is to ensure that parents are completely happy with their choice of school. We also look forward to working with our parents as "partners" in many aspects regarding the education of their children. Entrance to Form 1 is by interview. For older children, entrance is decided by assessment and a report from the child's present school.
Kindergarten Our Kindergarten accepts children aged from 2 1/2 years and offers morning or full day care. This is provided five days a week. Entrance to the Kindergarten is by informal interview. |
