Bathabile Primary School was found by the Mr. Len Pollock. He has endowed the School for the use of Children for the Farm Labourers in the Doornrandjies Area. He donated the School to the Bramley Rotarians whom then donated the School to Gauteng Department of Education.

Bathabile Primary School is one of the Farm Schools situated in Doornrandjies in Centurion, City of Tshwane, Gauteng Province. The school’s coverage includes poor communities from farm areas, Olivienhoutbosch and an informal settlement called “Spruit”.
The school has nine classes, kitchen, staff Room, two toilets for male and female educators and one office. The administration clerk shares the office with the Principal. One block was built by parents and other blocks built by Mr. Len Pollock. There are a number of portable toilets for the learners use.

The school had 16 educators, a Principal, 3 non-teaching staff and 638 Learners in 2008.  This year the school is bursting at the seams with 1200 learners. The grades begin with Grade I and end with Grade 7. The School has a functional School Governing Body and School Management Team.

The learners are transported from Spruit, Olivienhoutbosch and farm areas through Scholar Transport. The Department of Education offers a Feeding Scheme and the school augments the Feeding Scheme through the Project on Food Gardening.
Through the collective leadership of School Governing Body, Principal, educators and parents, the school is able to integrate the Project to National Curriculum Statement which is a new Curriculum.

Our Communities are characterised by poverty and unemployment which has an impact on the education of children.  At Bathabile Primary School we have set out to minimise these impacts as far as our resources and abilities stretch.
