Clarendon Park

Computer Lab

Learners in the Foundation Phase visit the computer lab weekly for half an hour to practice skills they are learning in class. The main learning and teaching support materials used are CAMI for maths and SuperSpell or phonics, but a variety of fun activities that tie in with special classrooms themes are also enjoyed. Learners in the Intermediate Phase and Senior Phase come for an hour every alternate week. CAMI and SuperSpell support their maths and spelling skills, but we also focus on keyboarding, word processing and research skills. Class teachers keep the computer lab supervisor informed about special topics that their learners need to research. Half the class attend the computer lesson while the other half has a technology lesson.

The computer lab has 18 computers with Internet access, a colour printer and a data projector.

The computer lab is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 14:00-15:00 for learners who want to do research for projects and also for typing for homework or reports. Learners who wish to use the computers must write their names in the Computer Lab Booking Form which is posted on the notice board outside the computer lab. First-come, first-serve. The computer lab supervisor, Mrs Daleman, is available to assist the learners with their research.

Swimming Pool

At Clarendon Park we have top class swimming facilities, a 25m pool consisting of 6 lanes. The pool is the same depth throughout thus allowing the younger swimmers to feel confident and safe. The pool is situated in a walled – off grass area which makes it an ideal venue for hosting galas.

Hall

The Scott Hall underwent a major revamp and was completed just in time to celebrate our 60th jubilee celebrations in 2008. The aptly named Jubilee Gallery was added to create seating for another 120 pupils. This solved the dire need for more space. Not only were the pupils seated more comfortably but more seating was also available for productions, prize-givings etc. The hall now boasts wonderful theatre lights, a newly sanded floor, new blinds and of course the Jubilee Gallery.
