They will be life-long learners and leaders of tomorrow, who are tolerant and will strive to build a better future for all.

Our Mission

To make the dream of our vision come true, a concerted effort by all stakeholders of Cresslawn Primary School is of the utmost importance.

The purpose of Cresslawn Primary School is the education (teaching and learning) of the children who attend here.

The difference between effective and non-performing schools is the dedication of the educators, the willingness of parents to support educators and to be involved in their children’s education. At Cresslawn Primary School each educator will be assisted to be the best educators they can be, will be motivated into improving their own knowledge and skills in order to make their own experience in the classroom valuable to themselves and the learners
