HIGHSCHOOL HAPPENINGS<br />

Dear Parent/Guardian<br />

The final stretch is upon<br />

us with the starting of<br />

the exams. Thankfully,<br />

with proper planning,<br />

we anticipated the<br />

challenges we would face<br />

in regards to the strikes<br />

(Black Monday and the<br />

taxi strikes) that blocked<br />

access to the school.<br />

All our learners still<br />

received the opportunity<br />

to write and complete<br />

their respective question<br />

papers.<br />

It is a very important time<br />

of year for our learners<br />

and I want to thank the<br />

staff for the calm way<br />

in which they dealt with<br />

these challenges.<br />

After an amazing<br />

valediction and a jawdropping<br />

speech from<br />

one of our own, Lourenço<br />

Marques, the Grade 12<br />

learners were set for the<br />

final part of their school<br />

journey and we wish them<br />

well. Congratulations to<br />

every award recipient<br />

and especially our Dux<br />

Scholar for 2017, Kiana<br />

Venter.<br />

After attending the sport<br />

and culture prize giving, I<br />

can really appreciate the<br />

versatility of our learners.<br />

The evening wasn’t just a<br />

celebration of excellence,<br />

but of service to the<br />

school and motivation to<br />

our fellow learners for the<br />

years to come.<br />

Gratitude to all the parents<br />

that attended these<br />

functions shared in these<br />

accolades. Remember,<br />

it is the culmination of<br />

our alliance that was<br />

celebrated.<br />

I am familiar with the<br />

constant in most of the<br />

households this time of<br />

year, when you have to<br />

tell your child to study<br />

and stay off their phones<br />

as well as the struggle to<br />

keep on replenishing the<br />

fridge. We will be praying<br />

with you.<br />
