Joy of Learning is a culture principle that Nova Pioneer takes quite seriously. Our schools are intentional about creating a joyful atmosphere where children can feel safe to explore beyond the classroom walls.

All work and not play doesn’t make school a happy place to be honest. Thus, more recently, our schools hosted events that allowed students to express themselves through play and fun times. 

 

 

Boksburg: Celebrating the month of love

Our Boksburg Campus recently celebrated Valentine’s Day with a Civies Day. All the students dressed up in Red and White to celebrate the month of love and also painted a love tree using their palm and hand prints. Teachers read out aloud to the students and gave out treats. The students also returned the favour and made their teachers some arts and crafts.

North Riding: Pyjama Party

With school recently closing for Mid-term break, the North Riding campus decided to let the students have fun and celebrate all the hard work that they have put into the first weeks of schools with a movie and popcorn day. Students came to school dressed up in their pyjamas and watched a movie. There were big smiles all around as the students loved seeing their friends and their teachers dressed up in pyjamas. They enjoyed the cinematic experience of watching the movie in the studio space, sitting on their blankets having popcorn and juice with friends. We call these kinds of moments, priceless.

Paulshof and Ruimsig: Family Picnic 

Outdoor summer fun and kids just naturally go together. No one knows that better than our Paulshof and Ruimsig campuses. Both schools recently hosted their Family Picnics. There is no doubt that technology can cause some kids to spend less time doing things outdoors, therefore picnics are  a fun and healthy way to spend quality time with family members and other children. The events were meant to encourage students to socialise on non-school day and also for parents to get to know one another.

Midrand: Aesthetics to add an element of fun

At Nova Pioneer, we know that learning can occur both indoors and out. An outdoor environment should be a place to run, play, and learn. Outside spaces are very important at our campuses, the operations teams take pride in not only beautifying the spaces but also making them safe for children to explore and play. in. Recently, our Midrand Campus operations team introduced a fish pond at the end of the sensory garden path. The kids were so excited that they even did a countdown as the 4 goldfish were let out free into the fish pond. Pure Joy.
