From the Principal’s Desk, 13 November 2020

Dear Parents

It is that time of the year when we are all exhausted and in desperate need of a break.  It sometimes feels like we have been experiencing this ‘end of year fatigue’ since March!

Our President described it very accurately the other night as “Covid fatigue”.  There are just a little over three weeks left before the end of the 2020 academic calendar year.  Normally, this would be a time of prize-givings, December holidays and Christmas celebrations, but I think most of us are just simply looking forward to the end of 2020.  We must be careful however, not to place too great an expectation on 2021 and forget to celebrate the joy that is still with us.

We are having our New Parents Information Morning on Saturday 14 November and look forward to welcoming new families to our school.  It is important that we abide by the Covid protocols and therefore the event is only for prospective parents and students, and the teachers involved in the event.

There will be a Bee-Bot competition on Saturday morning, run by our junior school IT teacher, Mrs. Sonia Terblanche, and a few of her students.

The music department will also present a music showcase, giving prospective parents a glimpse of the wealth of talent we have at our school.

As we reach the end of another week, let us remain positive and with our families this weekend, celebrate the good we have in our lives.

Warm regards

Edna
