Destiny Independent School is a new and growing school, registered
with the GDE. We opened on the 9th January 2019 with 60 learners
between Grades R and 9 and now currently have 150 learners.
Our main goal as a school is to guide ALL our learners to the maximum of their
potential.
Ask any learner in our school what is the one thing the Principal
keeps on reminding them of and they will tell you: “I am not worth less; I am worth more”.
Our reason as a staff for being here every day is to ensure that we develop the potential of each of our learners to the fullest, and to do that in an atmosphere of familiness.
A school is so much more than just learners, teachers, and academics. It is how these different aspects integrate with and react to each other. It is the being there for each other when we need it the most, it is the safe environment in which we can experiment and even make mistakes with the knowledge that we will not be victimised or discriminated against just because we made a mistake. It is the knowledge that we are not our mistakes.
Small classes allow for an environment where each child can reach the maximum of their potential.
We use Microsoft teams as an extention of our teaching platform. Lessons are loaded on this platform on a daily basis.
Destiny Independent Kempton Park follows the CAPS curriculum, as prescribed by the Department of Basic Education

Dalene Pretorius
Acting Principal Greenacres Private College
I am proud to be in the position to mutually serve and positively contribute to Broadlands Private School and Greenacres Private College as the Executive Principal. Ever since my appointment as Principal of Greenacres Private College, in 2018, I genuinely believed that these two sister-schools are so similar in determination to reach academic excellence that they beat as one heart.
I am sincerely thankful for the opportunity to lead both these respected institutions. Notwithstanding, leading the proficient staff teams and the enthusiastic learners alongside their families. I pledge a commitment to guide both schools to successfully reach the purest level of academic excellence. As with any journey, one has to change one’s mind-set and perspective in order to successfully reach your destination. Therefore, in some way or another, there will be some changes instigated in both schools regarding management, alongside newly implemented administrative procedures. Nevertheless, the main aim, being academic excellence, will remain the same throughout regardless of any changes made within the schools’ systems.
Moreover, to ensure the progressive success rate of any adjustment in an academic institution, the same institution requires the support of both parents / guardians and learners. Consequently, it is my sincere hope that teachers, parents / guardians, as well as the learners, will support any changes implemented in the respective schools with the understanding that all my decisions are based on the wellbeing and success of both schools. As the Executive Principal, I will simultaneously guide & manage both schools alongside the distinct school management teams, educators, learners and parents; in order to achieve the identical vision of developing all our learners to the maximum of their potential.
Throughout my career I have observed that all decisions in life have a continuous ripple effect. Thus, a decision that will have an everlasting ripple effect is choosing a school that will both benefit your child’s academics, as well as their emotional growth. Furthermore, a learner’s academic performance, as well as their experience in a school will determine their accessible opportunities for tertiary education. In addition, a school contributes to a learner’s development in numerous areas. These areas include (but is not limited to): an increase of emotional intelligence, self-esteem, social interaction/s and providing life skills to ensure a successful career and the ability to function as an independent adult and become a valued contributor to the community.
I can affirm with confidence that all learners are the main priority in all operational facets of both Broadlands Private School and Greenacres Private College. These academic institutions aim for the highest level of quality as an education provider and an institution that will shape the future world leaders.
The school management team/s and staff alike, will focus on providing each learner with a virtuous education in an environment that is a well-disciplined in nature, in accordance with a hardworking atmosphere and most importantly a safe environment.
Broadlands Private School and Greenacres Private College awaits your application to join our – now extended – family. Remember that progressive beginnings lead to exceptional finales.
With sincere and heartfelt regard
Ms F Choonara
Executive Principal – Broadlands Primary & Greenacres Private College
As Acting Principal under the close guidance and support of the Acting Executive Principal, Ms Choonara, I look forward to taking Broadlands to new heights.
I thank the directors and Ms Choonara for all the guidance and wisdom that has been instilled in me to lead Broadlands through this new journey that we will embark on.
The aim is to guide EACH learner to the MAXIMUM of their potential, and with the Pillars of Development programme and other tools we are able to do so.
When you join a DCEG school, you join a close-knit family that takes a child’s hand, and leads them to their dream.
I look forward to the great stories of success regarding high standards of academia and children who will prosper in every aspect of their school career.
Kind Regards,
