Who are we

Arbor Fairland Pre-Primary is a Christian, Afrikaans nursery school located in Fairland, opposite the popular Fairland Primary School. Arbor was established in 2001. We cater to toddlers from 3 months to 6 years old. Arbor is a family, a second home for your toddlers where we share hearts and love one another. Here we not only play together, but we also learn together. Arbor is a place where all the toddlers are special, unique, and SOMEBODY. Arbor is the school where toddlers develop and grow from an early age, spread their branches, and eventually blossom into something everyone is proud of.

We offer a half-day and full-day program. Arbor is also open during holidays and provides a holiday school. All Arbor’s staff are qualified teachers, and everyone has at least four years of training at a tertiary institution. Assistants in toddler classes are trained in basic early childhood skills and first aid.
