Westering learners are offered every opportunity to grow and encourage their love of reading, as well as learn how to research topics. Miss Potgieter, our librarian, manages our library with over 10 000 books. Students have a timetabled library lesson where they can exchange books. The library is also open during breaktimes, where Miss Potgieter and her team of Grade 7 librarians assist students visiting the library.

Our multi-purpose arena was built in 2019. It comprises of a smaller full-length hockey field, four mini hockey fields and the multi-purpose features of the arena have also allowed for two full-sized tennis courts and two standard netball courts. A variety of sporting codes are able to make use of this facility. The multi-purpose arena has created a beautiful aesthetic environment that is pleasing to the eye. Our children have wonderful opportunities awaiting them and the benefits from training and making use of this facility cannot be measured. We are one of the few primary schools in the city fortunate enough to enjoy such facilities. We are very proud of this.

With the introduction of borehole water and a very dedicated maintenance team, Westering has managed to keep our fields in tip top shape for all the sporting codes.

This part of our school is used non-stop and is a hive of activity throughout the year. It is also a place where parents get to become a real part of the Westering Family as they support their children from the side lines.

Westering Primary is one of the few schools that boasts an expansive playground for their Grade 1, 2 and 3 learners. We have a large jungle gym, climbing wall, grass area, boat and train structure. The playground creates an opportunity for the learners to practice their balancing, build upper body strength and engage in imaginative play.  The learners make the most of the open space to run and tumble.  We are fortunate to be able to allow our learners this opportunity to play and explore. 

The Computer Lab is equipped with 34 computer stations and a projector used for instruction. It is a modern, fun space where Miss Njadayi helps our students develop their technological and research skills in a safe, guided manner.

It is important to us that students are offered every opportunity to grow in all aspects of their lives, including their creative and artistic qualities.

Our spacious Art Room is a place which is always humming with cheerful, imaginative activity. Mrs Erasmus, our Art teacher, takes pleasure in helping our budding artists develop confidence and appreciation for all facets of Art.

The fruits of their labour can be seen hanging on the walls throughout our school.

Westering Primary School boasts some of the best training facilities in Gqeberha. Westering has 5 top class artificial cricket nets that are perfect for all cricketers looking to learn the game or hone their skills further. These nets are often a hive of entertainment and filled with aspiring young future provincial and national representatives. 

The aim of our aftercare is to create a safe, well disciplined, happy environment for our children to spend their afternoons in.
