Terms of service

1. Who we are

This store is owned and run by Nick Botha, trading as MeerkatSkool, from 17 Bloukrans Avenue, Hartenbos, Mossel Bay, 6520, South Africa. You can reach us at info@meerkatskool.co.za or 066 462 7629.

2. What we sell

We sell sets of practice papers with memorandums, as PDF files, for South African primary school learners in Grades 4 to 7, in Afrikaans and English. Our papers are aligned to the CAPS curriculum and were written after studying more than 400 real primary school papers.

Our papers are practice material for home and classroom use. They are not official examination papers, they are not endorsed by the Department of Basic Education or by any school, and they are not a prediction of the questions in any actual test or exam.

3. What you may do with the files

When you buy a product, you get a personal, non-exclusive licence to use those files. You may:

  • download the files and keep your own copy;
  • print as many copies as you need for the children in your own household, or for the learners in your own classroom;
  • write on, mark and work through the papers.

4. What you may not do

You may not:

  • share, email, upload or resend the files to anyone outside your household or classroom;
  • put the files on a website, social media, messaging group, file-sharing service or online marketplace;
  • sell, rent or trade the files or printed copies of them;
  • remove or change our name, logo or copyright notice on the papers;
  • use the papers as part of a paid service, tutoring business or published product without our written permission.

If you want to use our papers across a whole school or in a tutoring business, contact us at info@meerkatskool.co.za and we will arrange it.

Copyright in all papers, memorandums and artwork stays with MeerkatSkool.

5. Your account

You need to give a valid email address to buy from us, because that is where your download link is sent. You can log in with that email at any time to download your files again. Keep your email account secure — anyone who can read your email can reach your downloads.

6. Prices and payment

All prices are shown in South African Rand and include any applicable taxes. Payment is handled by Payfast. We never see or store your card details.

We may change our prices at any time, but the price you see at checkout is the price you pay for that order.

7. What we promise, and what we do not

We work hard to make our papers accurate and to match the CAPS curriculum. We cannot promise that a paper is free of every error, that it matches exactly what your child’s school teaches in a given term, or that using our papers will improve any specific mark or result.

If you find a mistake in a paper or memorandum, please tell us at info@meerkatskool.co.za. We fix errors and reissue files.

8. Availability

We do our best to keep the store and your downloads available, but we cannot promise the site will never be offline. If you cannot download something you have paid for, contact us and we will send you the files another way.

9. General

These terms are governed by the laws of South Africa. If any part of them is found not to apply, the rest still stands. We may update these terms, and the version on this page at the time of your order is the version that applies to you.
