Our Story
Constantia Pre-School was founded by Mary Norton, whose lifelong dedication to early childhood education began as a mother of three.
Mary’s vision was to create a warm, family-like environment where every child feels loved, supported and encouraged to grow at their own pace.
What started as a small community playschool in 1984 has grown into a trusted local preschool, known for its hands-on approach, small class sizes and exceptional care.
​
“I wanted each child to develop confidence, kindness and curiosity, and feel safe to become exactly who they’re meant to be.”
Mary Norton, Founder

Nurturing Constantia’s Children Since 1984
At Constantia Pre-School, we believe every child deserves the best possible start in life.
For over 40 years, our community-focused preschool has been a joyful second home for toddlers, pre-schoolers and Grade R learners in the Constantia area.

Our Approach
We believe children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and inspired to explore. Our teachers focus on each child’s strengths and guide them through play-based activities that build skills for life.
