About Happy@Pre-School
Molding clever, disciplined, and happy learners for tomorrow's world. Since 2013, we've been providing quality early childhood education in Bloemfontein.
From the Owner's Pen
Our journey began with a simple dream and a Saturday morning shopping trip that changed everything.
The Beginning
Happy@Pre-school started as a mere thought and a Saturday morning shopping trip on 27 April 2013. After some fast planning and a Saturday morning shopping spree, we opened our doors at our Langenhoven Park branch on Monday 29 April 2013 – two children and one teacher strong, and one Chef strong.
Our Mission
We offer a safe and clean environment where children are always happy and never want to go home. Why Happy@Pre-school? We offer a safe and clean environment, and children that come to us are always happy and never want to go home.
Our Vision
We accommodate children aged three months to six years. We have intimate classes headed by well-experienced, qualified, and kind teachers. We offer breakfast and lunch, morning and afternoon snacks and refreshments.
