From the Principal’s Desk, 21 August 2020

Dear Parents

As I was looking back through the school calendar for 2020, I was reminded of all the events we have missed over the past few months. We missed the Interactive Curriculum Morning in April, a bi-annual event where parents participate in an interactive learning experience in the classroom. This was also the first year we did not have our Grandparents/Someone Special Day.  No school photos were taken in July and the SRC of 2020 had little chance to enact any of the plans they campaigned for.

However, do not despair! We are not going to let the rest of the year pass by without enjoying some of our annual celebrations. Planning is underway for a special Valedictory service for our matric students and even though the matric dance cannot follow the traditional format, that does not mean we don’t have something exciting up our sleeves! We also launched our first Virtual Open Day last week and this week, our very first Virtual Talent Show! We look forward to many entries for this competition as we know how creative and talented our students are.

There is always something to be grateful for and always something to look forward to!  Where there is no vision, people perish.  Blouberg International staff, students and parents are not without hope, vision, or innovation.

To our matric and year 10 students who started their prelim examinations this week, we wish you all the best and success ahead.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend filled with family time and much laughter.

Kind regards

Edna
