Waterkloof House is located in Brooklyn. WHPS is an independent (private) School, offering education as follows: Grade 000 and Grade 00 boys and girls, and Grade 0-7 boys only through the medium of English.
Founded in 1923 by the Ruddell brothers, the vision of the School is to realise the holistic development of its boys using a broad-base to promote high moral values; independent thinking; self-discipline and a positive self-image, enabling each boy to realise his full potential in academics, sporting and cultural fields within a Christian environment.
Affectionately known as WHiPS, there is a certain element that sets Waterkloof House Preparatory School apart from any other school its ethos is legendary.
Waterkloof House Pre-Preparatory Pre-School is located in Brooklyn. Since its opening in 1923, WHPS Pre-Prep has filled a special place, in the educational market place offering a high quality, balanced education backed by a strong ethos which expounds values such as good manners, self-discipline, self-esteem and respect for one's self, one's peers and one's environment.
This broad- based approach to education has set generations of boys on the path to success and marked them with the special stamp of 'a WHPSian'. Part of WHPS' success has come from its ability to meet the needs of these children and their families, as society has changed and expectations have altered.
In recent years, there has been a growing understanding of the importance of socialisation for younger children and the need for structured perceptual development to prepare them for school. Economic pressures and families with two working parents have also seen these families wishing to place their children in school earlier.
