Our story

Purpose-built in 1973, still growing today

Bollie Nursery School was established in 1973 and was specifically designed and built as a nursery school and baby care centre โ€” not adapted from a house, but planned from day one for little ones. For over five decades we've been a trusted part of the Farrarmere community in Benoni.

Today Bollie cares for children from just 3 months old, through nursery school (Grades 000โ€“R), and into after-care for Grades 1โ€“7 โ€” growing alongside each family that walks through our gate.

Our philosophy

Every child deserves to feel safe, seen and loved

We believe the early years lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our approach is rooted in Christian values and blends structure with warmth, and play with purpose.

Christian Values

A faith-based foundation of kindness, honesty and love woven gently into everyday nursery life.

Learning Through Play

Age-appropriate activities that build confidence, curiosity and school-readiness naturally.

Safety & Structure

A secure, purpose-built environment with consistent routines children can rely on.

Registered & Accountable

Registered with the Departments of Health, Education and Social Development.

A Second Home

Balanced meals from our own kitchen, baking days and a Friday tuck shop treat.

A Real Community

Generations of Farrarmere and Benoni families have grown up at Bollie together.
