If your kid’s got energy to burn and you’ve got a morning free, King Edward Private School in Potchefstroom is putting on a Free Play Day on Saturday, 31 May 2025, from 09:00 to 12:00. The address? 234 Walter Sisulu Avenue, Potch. No tickets needed, just show up and try to keep up with your child.
What’s Happening?
This isn’t a drop-and-go situation. In fact, don’t even think about it. Parents must accompany their kids at all times, there’ll be no supervision provided. The idea is to play together, which sounds lovely in theory, until you find yourself crawling through jungle gyms and pretending to be a pirate before your first cup of coffee.
Expect a lively mix of fun activities geared towards bonding with your little one. It's a chance to break the routine, let your child show you their climbing skills, and maybe meet a few fellow parents in the same boat.
Refuel Options
All that running around will make you hungry, so there’ll be boerewors rolls, sweetpacks and cooldrinks on sale to keep everyone fuelled. Bring a few rands in your pocket and maybe a wet wipe or two, just to be safe.

A Bit About the School
If you’re also looking at preschools, King Edward Preschool offers a play-based learning environment with experienced teachers and a focus on keeping things engaging (read: your child might actually be excited to go to school). It’s all about building strong foundations, while having a bit of fun along the way.
So, if you’re free on the last Saturday of May, grab your takkies, your kid, and a bit of cash for snacks. Head over to King Edward Private School and spend a few hours playing and laughing, before the sugar rush kicks in.
