Dear Parent/Guardian

We are thankful to be through the worst part of the third wave of Covid infections. We want to extend our deepest sympathy to all those who lost loved ones during this difficult time. May God be with us and may the Holy Spirit comfort us. To all our Mothers: Please enjoy Monday the 9th. I hope that all of you will be spoiled and blessed. All of the best for our Grade 12s who will start Prelim Exams on 24 August. See timetables for 9th periods, Prelim Exam as well as NSC Final Exams attached. The rest of the school will have the normal third term tests/assessments. See the Gr. 8-11 test timetable below. According to regulations issued, we had to start the third term with an alternative timetable and need to complete the cycle for grade 8-11. This will take us to Friday 13 August. We therefore will return to full school on Monday 16 August.

The programme for next week will therefore be as follow: Gr.9 and 11: Tuesday (day 4) and Thursday (day 6) Gr.8 and 10: Wednesday (day 5) and Friday (day 7) Gr.12: Tuesday - Friday (day 4 - day 7)

Due to the delays caused by closing the school early last term, some tests and assessments had to be postponed to this term. Reports are therefore delayed and will only be issued to learners next week. Parents evenings will therefore be as follow: Gr. 12 Parents: Wed 11 Aug from 18:00 to 19:00 Gr. 8-11 Parents: Thu 12 Aug from 17:00 to 19:00

Sport and Cultural Activities All Sport- and Cultural Activities may continue with strict application of all Covid regulations, but without spectators. New fixtures will be made available soon.

Regards

Mr. J van Niekerk
