I don't usually do this because of my beliefs and up bringing to not bring down people on negative matters but recently the matter has gotten worse and having negative effects on my childs mental health. Bullying is a big deal to me and I do not stand for it or encourage it in any way shape or form. We've spoken to the school about it and they have done absolutely nothing to solve it or seem to even care about the well beings of the kids that are getting bul****, they say the same thing every time we talk to them about it, it's always the same thing "we will look into it", or "we are working on it" Frankly we are done and now seeking higher ups because nothing is being done and I can see how it's effecting my child's and they scared to go to school, they bodies are sore from a group of grade 6 girls that always hitting them and picking on them, my one kid just started grade 1 this year and his getting nightmares and so scared to go to school it's saddening that nothing is being done for the well beings of these kids in schools who are getting bul****. I am highly disgusted with this school and how they dealing with it. What will It take for them to actually care and do something, must we wait until my kids commit suicide or harm themselves in order for you guys to care about these kids welfare. You guys should do be better I always told other parents that your school is the best but now my opinion has changed, Honestly don't take your kids to this school.

It's disappointing to see such a one-sided and negative view of Theo Wassenaar Primary School, especially when so much progress has been made under the leadership of Mrs. Tagari. The school has worked tirelessly to improve the quality of education and the overall environment for all students, and it’s crucial to acknowledge these efforts rather than undermine them with biased accusations. Fundraising activities like the Glow Run are essential for supporting various school initiatives that benefit all students. It’s unfortunate that some parents choose not to participate or contribute to these efforts, yet still expect their children to receive the same rewards as those who have. This is not only unfair to the school, but also to the families who make sacrifices to support these programs. The school’s policies regarding rewards are clear and are in place to encourage participation and ensure that everyone contributes to the collective good. Regarding the safety measures, such as controlled access to the school premises, these are implemented with the students’ best interests in mind. Complaints about having to drop off children outside the gates ignore the fact that these rules are there to protect the students and maintain order. Non-compliant parents who resist these necessary measures are not only disregarding school policies but also putting their own children at risk. Mrs. Tagari has made significant improvements to the school, focusing on discipline, safety, and academic excellence. Parents who fail to support these initiatives or comply with school policies are doing a disservice not only to their own children but to the entire school community. It’s time to stop the unfounded criticism and start appreciating the hard work that goes into making Theo Wassenaar Primary School a better place for all students.

Our kids/learners are under a great deal of stress because of the selfish decisions taken by the head Theo Wassenaar Primary school. They raise funds every year, which is not an issue. The issue is that learners who do not donate R300 or more for Glow-Run will not receive a hamburger, nor will they be permitted to wear civvies on Fridays. What about parents who cannot afford or even owe a lot of money for school fees? They are not treated with consideration by the head of the school, Mrs. Tagari. Some parents are wondering what to feed their children for lunch, so how are they going to be able to donate R300? My son has been under a lot of stress lately because I am unable to pay the R300 donation for Glow Run. I keep my financial troubles from my son, but I now had to tell him about them, as I had to explain to him why am I not paying for him. He asked me not to attend to school on Friday, August 30, 2024, because he wasn't permitted to wear his civies because he didn't participate in the Glow Run, and he wasn't given the hamburger because that was reserved for students who had paid. AGAIN! Today it has been announced that only students who have paid R300 or more for the Glow Run will be allowed to wear Civies (home clothes) on Friday, 06, 2024. WHAT IS CALLED?! THIS IS CHILD EMOTIONAL ABUSE!!! Mrs. Tagari NEVER considers our children. She even went so far as to shut the school's gates, forcing parents to drop off their children outside the school premises. Did she ever consider the security of our kids? It is very inconvenient for parents to leave their young children outside the school gate as young as they are plus they are carrying Chromebooks. I had to battle for the right to drop them off inside the school grounds. She even made up the claim that there aren't enough cars at the Booysens police station to patrol the school vicinity and keep students safe. I called the Booysens police station and was informed that they had never received a call from Mrs. Tagari. She agreed to let our children through the school gates when I informed her of this. Since Mrs Tagari became the head of Theo Wassenaar Primary School, there has been a lot unhappiness going on in this school, I can even write a book. She has no respect for anyone.

<p>A complaint was sent to the principal at Theo Wassenaar Primary school on 19 January 2017, 20 January 2017 and again today 25 January 2017 requesting feedback from her regarding one of her employees involved in a theft case. I asked Ms. Tagari for a response but she is just ignoring all emails which is absolutely pathetic. She can't even respond which is a clear indication that she is trying to avoid the situation and hide this from the public. Useless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and imcompetant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
