Today, our Grade 12 learners had an amazing experience with Rocking Future! The roadshow brought together over 27 university reps who shared valuable insights on how to apply to universities, explore career options, and take the next steps after school. The event was both fun and informative, with interactive games and exciting prizes! A huge thank you to 3rc_sa for joining us today!

This term in Preschool has been packed with fun, learning, and exciting adventures. We began with the theme My School, My Body, My Home & Family, where learners explored the world around them in a meaningful and relatable way. Our Pets theme followed, tying in perfectly with a visit from The Incredible Dog Show—a memorable experience where Lloyd and his talented dogs taught us valuable lessons about care and companionship.
Our Beach theme brought summertime into the classroom as we learned about sea creatures, enjoyed sensory play, and made creative fish bowl biscuits using blue icing. To end the term, we’ve been exploring beloved books through storytelling, imaginative play, and artwork, making this a wonderfully enriching start to the year.
