Townsview Primary School Pre-School is located in Townsview. Townsview Primary School is situated on the corner of Main Street and Valda Street in the Southern Suburbs of Johannesburg. It has been built on the top of a koppie and overlooks Johannesburg City to the north. To the south of the school, the ‘new south’ is being built. Originally, the area was comprised of plots for vegetable and dairy farming.

The school was opened on 28 July 1953 with an enrolment of 163 children, the school was built to accommodate 450 learners. Over the past 60 years our school has grown substantially and we currently have an enrolment of 1023 learners. We’ve obviously had to add classrooms, be innovative with existing facilities and, unfortunately, take away much needed space for our learners to play.

In 2013 we celebrated the school’s 60th birthday with a school production involving all the learners at the school entitled, “Once upon a Townsview Time” in July which was a great success, and a Fun Day in October which was enjoyed by all.
