GENERAL: Parents, we have a huge problem with certain learners in the school who are taking away other children’s opportunities to be educated in a safe and bully-free environment. A small group of learners make it extremely difficult for the teachers as well as for the other learners and teachers spend a great deal of time trying to calm these trouble makers down. Please speak to your child and find out what is really happening in some classes.
