OPEN DAY AND MARKETING<br />
On 7 May <strong>2016</strong> the weather could not have been brighter and<br />
more beautiful for our much anticipated Open Day. Many hours of<br />
preparation had gone into making this day a success. At expos of<br />
schools like Glenstantia Primary and Lynnwood Ridge Primary, as<br />
well as at shops and businesses in our surrounding area, flyers and<br />
posters had been distributed to announce the <strong>DSP</strong> Open Day.<br />
Attendance by visitors was once again good and many a learner<br />
has since joined the school.<br />
The Open Day is but one of the avenues we choose to market<br />
the school. Most of us are familiar with the A1 street posters for the<br />
Open Day and the Oktoberfest that are recognized by the black,<br />
gold and red colours and our logo.<br />
Some of you have probably come across <strong>DSP</strong> posters in Brooklyn<br />
Mall, The Grove and Woodlands Boulevard. We advertise in the<br />
newsletters of various estates, in the communal and daily newspapers,<br />
on our website and Facebook, at our churches and embassies.<br />
However, few of us might realize how much we market ourselves<br />
within the school. One may think of the many fields of excellence<br />
within our school family: Teachers’ approach to their tasks and to<br />
the learners, welcoming visitors and making new learners feel at<br />
home, our Monday morning assemblies and our easily recognizable<br />
school clothing and logo all contribute to marketing our school.<br />
Furthermore, our swimming galas and sports days enthusiastically<br />
supported by the various houses, our robotics club and its achievements,<br />
and the music presented by learners, contribute to the<br />
school’s positive image. The prefects also assist in making our<br />
school known as a friendly, supportive organization.<br />
One just has to listen to the school hymn being sung by our<br />
learners in the Aula to realize that they sing it with conviction and<br />
pride in being part of the <strong>DSP</strong>. One could hardly market the <strong>DSP</strong> in<br />
a stronger way!<br />
I feel honoured to have been part of such a diverse and marvellous<br />
school.<br />
