2013 started at a furious pace with a very successful inter-house athletics and swimming gala. We request that<br />

parents support our learners in participating and attending the practices regularly. The sport fixture list and<br />

practice times are available on the school’s website.<br />

The first athletics meeting takes place at home today with a meeting against Hoërskool Stoffberg. Parents must<br />

please take note that due to the away athletics meetings, the school will close at 12:30 on the following<br />

Fridays: Friday, 1 February (Die Wilgers), Friday, 8 February (Boksburg Athletics Stadium), Friday, 15 February<br />

(Hartbeespoort). The inter-high athletics meeting will take place on Tuesday, 26 February at Pilditch Stadium<br />

and will start at 09:00.<br />

The first gala, tennis league match, as well as cricket matches started this week and we would like to wish all<br />

the learners an enjoyable sporting year. The u/14 cricket team started the season on a high note with a<br />

comfortable ten wickets victory over Sutherland High. Our senior girls tennis team unfortunately narrowly lost<br />

their first A1-league match against Affies. With the learners’ positive attitude, the parents’ support and the<br />

staff’s enthusiasm, we have no doubt that we can meet the challenges in 2013. Do not hesitate to discuss any<br />

sporting related query or problem with us.<br />

Swimming - Mr John Acres<br />
