Forest View Primary
Forest View Primary School opened its doors in 1973 with Mr Kemp, the founder Principal, and 124 pupils and 6 teachers in attendance. Since then we have grown somewhat, offering classes from Grade R to Grade 7, with an average of 25 children per class. Our qualified educators have your child’s best interests at heart and passionately go about delivering the best possible education.
