At Johannesburg Polytech Institute (JPI), our Pre-School program is designed to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for our youngest learners. We believe that early childhood education is the foundation for lifelong learning and development. Our goal is to foster a love for learning, curiosity, and a sense of wonder in every child.
Our Pre-School Philosophy
- Holistic Development:
- We focus on the overall development of the child, including cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth.
