Yvonne English Medium School is an independent primary school to be established in eSantini, a lower-income community in East London, Eastern Cape. The school will initially serve Grade 1 to Grade 3 learners (ages 7–10 years) with English as the primary medium of instruction, while providing exposure to additional languages, to promote multilingual competency.
The institution’s founding principle is embedded in its motto: “You are the seed of tomorrow’s forest”, reflecting its commitment to nurturing young minds into future leaders, innovators, and responsible citizens.
