LIVING VALUE: HUMILITY AND SIMPLICITY
Dear Parents / Caregivers
"You know more than you think you know, just as you know less than you want to know!" (Oscar Wilde).
I love this quotation, I think it is very apt for a school. One way in which to change the balance of this is by interacting with other people; we learn through other's experiences and knowledge. So ....

ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB
Our drive towards our recycling initiative has taken off very well. We encourage all learners and parents to continue bringing newspapers, cans, plastic bottles and glass bottles for our recycling project. We are able to win prizes! The school that brings in the most tons of recycling material could win a toilet makeover from Nampak.
Yours sincerely
