Mrs Gill Gallagher, principal, Grades 1 and 2 teacher.

Mrs Gallagher’s over 30 years in teaching ensures that our younger children are given a strong base on which to build their future learning, in a nurturing and structured environment. Greyton House is blessed to have such a wise person at the helm: a principal who magically seems to balance firmness with compassion, setting the unique tone of our school.

Mrs Melanie Davies, Grade 00 – Grade R teacher

Our little ones enjoy a happy, interactive environment where they are prepared for Grade 1 in a safe, structured and caring way, all the time learning the social skills they will need in the coming years

Mrs Jeannie Theron, Grades 3 and 4 teacher.

Life is never dull in “Mrs T’s” class. Along with her deep understanding of children, Mrs T ensures that learning is dynamic and exciting. Many important social skills are also emphasized in this class.

Mrs Sandy Wiesner, Grades 5 & 6 teacher and Afrikaans (Grades 5 – 8).

Everyone ought to pass through Mrs Wiesner’s hands at some point in their lives! Her classes are organised, well prepared and interesting, giving our Grades 5 and 6 pupils a strong academic grounding and the skills they need to approach the higher grades with confidence. Her firm but kind approach ensures a secure and happy group of children.

Mr Erith Harris, Grades 7 & 8 teacher and English (Grades 5 – 8).

Pupils at Greyton House realise within a few minutes of being in Mr Harris’s class that this man is a top quality teacher and person, with a wealth of experience in many subjects. His years as headmaster of one of the best schools in Zimbabwe are benefiting our senior pupils hugely and he expects and encourages the best from them.

Mrs Edwina Faro, assistant teacher.

Always smiling, Mrs Faro gives valued support to the Greyton House team. She patiently teaches the little ones, helps the bigger pupils with Afrikaans or Maths and generally helps to keep the Greyton House ship afloat.

Mr Deon Esterhuizen and Mrs Hilary du Toit, Administrator and Bursar.

Our bursar and administrator, the centre hub of Greyton House, make the wheels turn smoothly. They ensure an efficiently-run school and a welcome reception.

This backbone of full-time staff is supported and assisted by part-time teachers who help with computer literacy, class music, academic support, drama and enrichment subjects, as well as a supportive group of parents and village volunteers who help with clubs, camps, fundraising and the many activities that make up the tapestry of Greyton House.
