Clifton was established in 1942 and has consistently offered experience and expertise in termly, weekly and periodic Prep School boarding.

Our beautiful rural setting in the foothills of the Drakensberg offers children opportunities that cannot be replicated in urban schools. The freedom and safety our day scholar and boarder children enjoy on our 60ha estate and the surrounding farmlands has to be experienced to be understood.

Our Vision To be the ideal place to grow children

Our Mission To provide a home from home for all our children, utilising our unique and beautiful surroundings. We aim to establish sound academic structures within small classes while focusing on developing the individuality of each child. We acknowledge the potential of each child to make a difference, and in so doing equip our boys and girls to face the challenges of life in contemporary South Africa and the world in general. Our Values Clifton Preparatory School is an inclusive inter-denominational Christian school. We hold the values of honesty, integrity and tolerance at our core. In all areas of pursuit, fair play, good manners and wholehearted effort are encouraged. Good citizenship is developed in our children to assist them in becoming contributing members of whatever community they live in. Our Motto Prodesse Quam Conspici – To accomplish rather than be conspicuous.

School Song

For the beauty of the earth For the beauty of the skies

For the love which from our birth Over and around us lies

Christ our Lord to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of ear and eye For the heart and rains delight

For the mystic harmony Linking sense to sound and sight

Christ our Lord to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of human love Brother, sister, parent, child

Friends on earth and friends above For all gentle thoughts and mild

Christ our Lord to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise.

The Grace

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ

And the love of God our Father

And the fellowship, the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us

For evermore and evermore and evermore

AMEN

CLIFTON COMMUNICATION

The d6 School Communicator is the App used by Clifton for communicating with Parents and Guardians. Occasionally you will receive emails from us but most of the communication will come to you via the d6 Communicator. It is essential that you download this App and check it daily.

Should your email address change you will lose access to the d6 therefore it is essential you let us know your new email address as soon as possible.

Boarder parents – the leave form is accessible through the d6.

Download the d6 on your PC, digital device or cell phone by accessing the following URL: http://www.school-communicator.com/download.php

Follow the installation guides and select the relevant Grade/s and Channels including News. Remember that you will need to change the Grade at the start of each year.

If you need assistance in setting up your d6 School Communicator App then please contact Mr Mkhonza on sipho.mkhonza@cliftonprep.org.za or +27 (0)33 266 8229.

The other app available to parents/guardians is the Names & Faces App. It is a very useful App but not essential. It is very useful should you wish to make contact with staff via email or contact other parents when it comes to, for example, arranging play dates or birthday parties, etc...

12

RECOMMENDED CHANNELS OF COMMUNICATION

The recommended channels of communication is a guideline to help you with ensuring your child and your needs are met. We would like to encourage you to use these guidelines but there are times when someone needs to contact the Headmaster.

THE CLIFTON SANATORIUM

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

The Clifton Sanatorium is committed to ensuring that the children’s health while at school is maintained at its very best.

Some San Rules:

• During school academic day, ALL children need a note from their class teacher to visit the sanatorium.

• Children are expected to attend sport unless – - A Boarder child presents a note from the Sanatorium. - A day scholar child presents a note from their parent/guardian (or

they are injured or become unwell during the academic day at school).

• Day Scholar children: - Sick children are not to be sent to school until they are well enough

to attend classes. - Please notify your child’s teacher/tutor if your child is not well and

going to be absent. - If a child is unwell at home he/she MAY NOT be referred to the

Sanatorium for treatment; the San services are for illnesses and injuries that happen during the school day.

- Children who become unwell at school are admitted to the San on the discretion of the Sister on duty. Parents will contacted to fetch their child if he/she is not well enough to return to class.

• Boarder children:

- Please notify your Housemaster or Housemother if your child is not well and is going to be away from school.

- New boarders – ALL medication must handed in to the Sanatorium Sister as soon as they arrive in the boarding house.

- Current boarders – ALL medication must be handed to the Housemother/master or Sanatorium as soon as they arrive in the boarding house. ALL new medication must be handed to the Sanatorium Sister.

16

- It If would be appreciated if routine appointments be made by the Parents/Guardians during the school holidays (eg Orthodontist, Dental, Optometrists, Podiatrists, Psychologists, routine immunisations…).

- NB Tetanus immunisation is necessary every five years. Grade 7 children require a doctor’s medical examination as well as the routine twelve year immunisation before admission to high school; this must be done by the Parents/Guardians.

- All medical illnesses requiring a medical officer will be at the Parents’/Guardians’ cost.

- Boarder children who become unwell and cannot attend class for more than two days will be sent home. Consideration is given to children who live outside South Africa.

- If your child is taking monthly prescription medication please ensure that your child returns to school at the start of each term with the correct quantity of prescriptions for the term.

• If your child is injured at school or on a school outing (sport or other)

please contact the Sanatorium or Bursar immediately to discuss procedure with the school insurance.
