HIGH SCHOOL<br />
HAPPENINGS<br />
Dear Parent,<br />
It is the end of yet another<br />
term. A sigh of relief, missed<br />
opportunities or a pat on<br />
the back... The category<br />
you fall into will determine<br />
the way forward for you.<br />
The common denominator<br />
in all these categories,<br />
to quote Mr Niemand, is<br />
‘#onwardsandupwards”.<br />
We as Curro<br />
Roodeplaat<br />
have had great<br />
successes in<br />
a variety of<br />
activities. We<br />
were blessed with<br />
performances at<br />
the Curro Cuesta<br />
showcase where<br />
Joanice Stander won<br />
numerous accolades<br />
and Blessing Madhandara<br />
received the prize for<br />
the top art student. In a<br />
few days’ time we will be<br />
celebrating all the different<br />
cultures at our school by<br />
having our annual Culture<br />
Gala evening. Most of our<br />
learners that took part<br />
in the Curro Cuesta will<br />
be given an opportunity<br />
to share in the spotlight<br />
during this evening. As<br />
part of the golden thread<br />
interwoven throughout<br />
the different phases we<br />
have a guest appearance<br />
from a grade one learner<br />
that we are really excited<br />
about. Come and share<br />
this unforgettable evening<br />
with us.<br />
Cop, our outreach<br />
programme, had a very<br />
fruitful and life changing<br />
weekend when they<br />
had a chance to make a<br />
difference at Makhulong<br />
youth and child care<br />
centre. Forty of our<br />
students participated in this<br />
initiative, and taking into<br />
account all the students<br />
that were involved in their<br />
own outreach projects<br />
for Life Orientation, this<br />
clearly shows that we truly<br />
care. We thank them all<br />
in making a difference<br />
in our community.<br />
We are after all<br />
a community<br />
school.<br />
Our cricket and<br />
soccer boys are<br />
still flying the<br />
Roodies flag high.<br />
Our first cricket<br />
team recently beat<br />
Akasia High School by<br />
22 runs. During the Junior<br />
City Counsel soccer<br />
tournament our soccer<br />
team lost in the final. A<br />
number of our u/15 rugby<br />
boys have been selected<br />
after a rigorous set of trials<br />
to participate in the Iqhawe<br />
national tournament. We<br />
will release the names of<br />
