St James is a private, co-educational school which is part of a worldwide family of schools.
We are based in Greyville, Durban, and we offer a first-class education to Grades R – 7.
Our small class groups and experienced, caring staff are a recipe for success, with our school maintaining high academic standards.
A St James child is like no other – they leave our school with a strong sense of self and a firm moral foundation, which makes them a fine example to all around them.
Mindfulness forms an integral part of every day, which assists our pupils to develop Emotional Intelligence. Sanskrit (an ancient language) and Thinking through Philosophy are two subjects that are uniquely offered by St James Durban.
The CAPS curriculum forms the basis of our syllabus, and the children are exposed to many exciting co-curricular opportunities.
We encourage fitness by offering PE as well as a full extra-curricular program for all grades. We have an annual Sports Day and Gala.
St James children enjoy pursuing their musical talents, with music lessons, choir and recorder forming part of their education.
St James children are privileged to receive art instruction from a specialist. They produce exceptional work which is displayed at our annual Art Exhibition.
St James children are offered a full drama curriculum, which includes participation in the National Speech and Drama Eisteddfod.
