SpecCon Academy is South Africa’s flexible, CAPS-aligned online school that delivers structured, accessible learning from Grade R through Grade 12. To extend our impact into early childhood education and creative development, we’ve developed SpecCon Buddies — our range of printable learning resources that are both fun and foundational.
At SpecCon Academy, we recognise that early learning starts long before formal schooling begins — and that not every child learns best through a screen. SpecCon Buddies offers printable tools that build critical skills through creativity, movement, and play. All resources are educator-developed, CAPS-aligned, and available in both English and Afrikaans.
- Colouring pages organised by learning level
- Worksheets for Grade R and Grade 1 learners
- Printable games that develop coordination and critical thinking
- Themed content: animals, space, seasons, holidays, and more
- Afrikaans-language learning tools
Every resource is created by educators, CAPS-aligned, and designed for use both at home and in the classroom.
Busy parents looking for quality, screen-free learning moments at home — whether it’s during weekends, school holidays, or after homework is done. SpecCon Buddies makes it easy to keep children engaged without relying on expensive subscriptions or endless screen time.
Foundation Phase educators who need low-prep, high-impact resources. Whether you’re filling a learning centre, preparing for a theme week, or managing a class with mixed abilities, SpecCon Buddies provides affordable, printable solutions you can trust.
We’re proud to be part of the SpecCon Academy ecosystem — South Africa’s most flexible online learning provider. Our shared mission is to deliver accessible, quality education that fits real lives and real budgets.
