REPORTS / RAPPORTE
Our mini-examinations ended today, Fri-
day, 20 September. Ons verkies om tot
aan die einde van 'n kwartaal eksamen te
skryf om sodoende nie akademiese tyd
te verloor nie.
*The reports for ALL GRADES will be
issued on Friday, 4 October. I suggest
that when you receive the report you and
your child compare his/her marks with
those of the grade average
for each subject and then
identify any areas of concern.

FIRST DAY OF TERM/
EERSTE DAG VAN
KWARTAAL : TERM 4 starts on TUESDAY, 1 OCTOBER. We start with Week 1
(Day 2) on the timetable and a neatness and uniform inspection
will be held. The holiday is a good time to have blazers dry-cleaned.
Strong action will be taken against offenders. Parents are asked
to ensure that their children return from the holiday, prepared for this
neatness and uniform inspection. We need the full support of our
parents re the boys’ hair rule. Because we want to be proud of
our learners, we depend on your co-operation.
Thought Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes
courage is the quiet voice at the end of the
day saying 'I will try again tomorrow' .
