Early childhood development (ECD) can be defined as the physical, cognitive and social development that a child experiences prior to reaching his/her preparatory school entering age. Our ECD centre is more than just a drop-off pre-school. We provide a secure, stimulating and flexible environment in which children may develop socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively.

At Vaal Triangle Preparatory we believe in our motto, “Co-operate in Love”. We are a Cristian-based school and family is our main priority. Relationships formed at this school between parents, learners and educators are life-long bonds. Education is not just our profession, it is our passion.

Our vision is to encourage and develop our children holistically in order to realise their full potential and become well-rounded individuals.
In 1993 Mr and Mrs Truter had a dream of a school being built on the foundation of the Word of God. They made that dream a reality and Vaal Triangle Preparatory School was born. The school was physically built on the Word of God. Four Bibles were cemented into the four cornerstones of the school buildings.
Each Bible is open at a specific verse, to show that the educational foundation of this school is cemented within the Word of God and the school will continue to prosper in His Will. With our faith deeply cemented in the Bible, we will always find the meaning of life in His Word.
We guide learners to build their character on honesty and truthful principles, as the Bible teaches us.
“………. but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Isaiah 40: verse 30 -31
The eagle flies higher than any other bird and shows that functioning at the highest level, is where you gain the biggest advantage. The eagle is a strong symbol of force and spirit but most importantly it shows you freedom and the courage to look ahead. The eagle represents keeping a healthy balance, developing your individuality and being confident in all the choices you make.
The eagle always supports and protects its family. We at Vaal Triangle Preparatory School are family and always will be.
As single individuals we can accomplish a few things but if we stand together the possibilities are endless. Together we are stronger, we balance each other, we build each other up and we create a perfect harmony. With all our unique abilities combined, we can change history and make a difference for the good.
The olive wreath is a symbol of victory; we want all our learners to feel like victors when they finish their schooling with us. They will learn that with God on their side, anything is possible. They earn their wreath each year and as they build their life experiences they will realise that life itself is the biggest event they will ever take part in.
The olive branch is a sign of peace to the world and in the Bible the olive tree symbolises stability and tranquility. Each one of our learners makes up a part of the olive tree and at the end of their primary school journey, they emerge as victors with their own olive wreath. They are stable and grounded and ready to face the world.
