Dear Parents and Pupils,
Welcome back to term 3! I am so excited for our new term as we have some awesome things to look forward too. Our two biggest events are our Wendon Concert and our Grade 10 to 12 Work Experience week! Its going to be a busy term so put your seat belts on and enjoy what is to come!
Concert Invitations will be sent out tomorrow, 26th July. Each family will receive an Invitation. Remember: we have a ‘first purchase, first seated’ policy.
NB : Work Experience for Grade 10, 11 & 12
All relevant documentation was sent home last term on the 19th June. Parents, please spend valuable time talking to your child on where they would like to work for this experience. We encourage you to start working on placing your child in an appropriate working environment. The forms need to be sent back to school by the 15th August, giving us enough time to forward the relevant documents to the companies in question.
NB! School Hours
If you are running late, please phone the school to alleviate the stress that your child experiences.
School hours are as follows for ALL our children:-

We are so happy to announce that the much needed upgrade for our guest bathroom has now been completed. Thank you for your support with our small fundraising efforts to enable us to do this little ‘facelift’.
PRESTIGE PHOTOGRAPHS
Last term, we had our yearly school photographs taken. We will be sending these photographs home in the next two weeks, so please be patient as they will be sent out soon.

Change For Charity / Bread Tags
This ongoing collection of “small change” will benefit our fundraising project. Please “raid” your purses and get rid of any unwanted change. / Please collect the small plastic bread bag tags and send these to school. The money raised from recycling the tags is used to buy wheelchairs for disabled people.
Moms, thank you for your generous donations of flowers to brighten up our foyer.
