This is our last Bulletin for the third term.

A good teacher is like a candle, it consumes itself,
to light the way for others!
A successful year becomes reality when one is working with competent people, who are involved, and who do their bit to help achieve
what we have achieved.
A big thank you to all learners, parents, educators, administrative workers, and maintenance and cleaning staff, who made it all possible. There were many extra demands this
term, with the concert, etc., and everyones walking the extra mile, was much appreciated.
Thank you to the members of the Governing Body and PTA for their input, hours of hard
work and dedication. Your efforts are much appreciated. Working as a team, gives us
hope for the next 50 years. Enjoy the short holiday, rest and ensure that you are prepared for the fourth term, which will be extremely busy.

FROM THE OFFICE

UNABRIDGED BIRTH CERTIFICATES:

From the start of 2017, all applications for exemption of school fees AND new enrolments, MUST be accompanied by an unabridged birth certificate of the learner. No other birth certificates will be accepted. The application for these is a lengthy process, so
please apply immediately.

AFTERCARE:

Only parents are allowed to sign their children out at the Aftercare. The relevant permission must
be given by the parents when anybody else, except themselves, is fetching the learners. Only siblings over the age of 18 will be allowed to sign a learner out. Mrs Diane Pienaar (082 863 9734)
needs to be informed timeously. If transport drivers need to sign out the children, parents need to
inform the drivers accordingly, and ensure that the necessary permission has been given.

From next term, the entrance to the Aftercare, in Sangiro Street will change to Pierneef Street. The
new area for all Aftercare children, is currently under construction.

From next term, learners may enter and leave the school premises only through the Sangiro
Street gate. This gate will open at 07:15 only.
