The Team
As an early childhood education administrator, I’m passionate about creating a warm, welcoming environment where every child and family feels seen, heard, and supported. Working alongside Principal Sara, I ensure the school runs smoothly so teachers can teach, children can thrive, and families feel at home. From the front desk to the playground, my focus is on building genuine connections and helping our preschool shine from the inside out.
If you asked me 10½ years ago how many little ones would call me “Oupa,” I wouldn’t have known. Today, I feel like the most loved Oupa in Alberton! The words of E.G. White in Education remind us: “The Holy Scriptures are the perfect standard of truth - To obtain an education worthy of the name we must receive a knowledge of God (the Creator) and of Christ (the Redeemer) as they are revealed in the sacred Word.”
My love for cooking started at age six, when even childhood games turned into making food. Over time, this passion grew into a deep joy for preparing meals with care and love - especially for children. I take pride in creating food that not only tastes delicious but also lifts spirits, brings comfort, and encourages even picky eaters to enjoy. Cooking healthy, flavorful meals is my way of sharing happiness, and I’ve always known this passion would take me far.
My role as Head Cook is to prepare healthy, nourishing meals for children with love and care. Cooking is my passion - it’s a way to be creative, relieve stress, and show affection through food. In this position I’ve grown in skills, teamwork, and time management, and I take pride in making every meal both nutritious and enjoyable. I love my job and do it with confidence, pride, and calmness.
As the groundsman of our school, it is my responsibility to make sure that the gardens and play areas are in perfect shape for our children. Over the past 9 years I have watched not only our garden grow but our children too, and when they call for "Uncle Isaac", it always reminds me of what a blessing it is to work in this school.
As a baby class teacher, I believe every child deserves a joyful learning journey that nurtures their curiosity and encourages exploration.
