Please take note of the following matters, as this will be the last Newsletter for this term:

• FETCHING OF REPORT CARDS:  Report Cards will be handed out on Wednesday 13 March to learners whose parents the teachers don’t need to see. When your child receives his or her Report Card on Wednesday, the parents do not have to come to school on Thursday Afternoon.

  • Urgent Notices went out already to inform certain parents that they have to come and fetch Report Cards themselves on Thursday afternoon, as there are certain documents to be signed off regarding their children.

• HPV VACCINATIONS:  Please take note that the HPV Vaccinations for the grade 4 girls did not take place on Wednesday 6 March.  Due to the ongoing strike at the hospital, no vaccine is available for the immunisation.  You will be kept updated regarding an alternative date.

• PHOTOS:  This is the last reminder for payment of individual as well as group photos. Individual and class photographs will be taken on Thursday 18, April 2019.

• DISCIPLINE:  During term 1 we have experienced a lot of challenges regarding the behaviour and conduct of certain learners, especially some learners in Grade 6. We cannot continue to waste teaching time on learners who clearly do not want to learn and go out of their way to disrupt classes and victimise teachers and fellow learners.

• SCHOOL FEES:  Thank you to all parents whose school fees are up to date.  We appreciate the fact that your child’s education is important to you.  All accounts who are in arrears and have no written arrangement with Mrs Lynch, can now be handed over to our attorneys for collection.  Please note that all extra fees incurred, will be for the account of the defaulter.

• BREAKING UP FOR THE EASTER HOLIDAY:  The school is breaking up for the Easter Holiday on Friday 15 March 2019 at 11:30.  Please arrange your child’s transport accordingly.  We wish all our learners and parents a happy and peaceful Easter with their friends and family.  Should you be travelling during this holiday, please drive carefully and be alert.  Rest well and be safe at all times.  

  • Please note that the school will re-open on Tuesday the 2^nd of April, at 07:25 for the 2^nd term

• GENERAL:  A huge Thank You to all our Teachers, Admin Staff and General Workers for their hard work and dedication during the term.  I know it wasn’t always easy for you due to the sometimes bad working conditions created by learners who do not want to cooperate, but you have persevered for the sake of the learners who give their best regarding their school work as well as their general conduct.  Teachers and other staff, for all your love and hard work I want to thank and salute you.  I hope you have a good rest and quality time with your loved ones.
