On Friday the two senior classes held a cake sale. They sold hot dogs at break and cakes and sweets after school.

Thank you, Grade 7 and 6 for your wonderful generosity. You brought so much…enough to feed the whole school. Thank you, Frances, for setting up the stall so beautifully and thank you to all the teachers who did all the selling, and to the aunties for cleaning up afterwards. Thank you, thank you!!

And, thank you, the rest of the school, for spending so generously. Thank you, parents, for giving your children so much pocket money.

The cake sale realised E4310.00. This will go a long way to finishing the grass on the football field and the netball field and will bring us a little closer to having a marimba band.

Well, dear Parents,

So much for our effort to form a Parents’ Association!

We personally invited the 20 or so parents who expressed willingness to join and called a meeting last Thursday evening.

One parent attended – Mr Hwaire. Thank you very much for coming, Mr Hwaire.

Mr Hwaire came all the way from Matsapha and stayed until 7 p.m. Teacher Simolline and I really enjoyed chatting with you. (Tanaka Whaire is one of last year’s merit pupils and is now doing very well at Waterford.)

Apologies were received from two parents – thank you, Mr S’khumbuzo Tsabedze and Mrs Lomalungelo Dlamini.

Dear Parents and Teachers and Pupils

It looks as though this heavy rain is going to continue, so there will be no school tomorrow.

I am really sorry about that, but we will make up the time lost during the holidays.

Please keep looking at the website.
