"Are you looking for a school that has the tradition of welcoming individuals from all backgrounds? We actively and purposefully promote knowledge and respect for all religions and cultural groups. At Sagewood you become part of a family that recognises the differences, honours it by allowing you to give expression to it and then celebrates it by recognising that the whole is made up of the sum of its parts. You are then appreciated as a unique, value adding individual who has a purpose and an important role to play in our society.

We offer a learning environment in which children learn to appreciate the beauty and value of a non racial, multi-cultural, diverse school population. The value of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, learning to read, write and speak in three of the eleven official languages, and learning in a structured, well disciplined and supportive environment all become realities when you enrol to study at Sagewood School.

Yes, we instil in our children a strong work ethic, yes, we uphold the social standards of punctuality, honesty, integrity, clear communication, and yes, and we nurture the individual and provide all that an independent school is expected to. Browse through our website and see what we have to offer. Better still, visit our school and experience the Sagewood flair.
