baie mis. Mag dit met jou baie baie goed g<strong>aan</strong>!<br />
Ruan van Deventer en Amika Faber, twee van ons klasassistente verlaat ons <strong>aan</strong> die einde van die<br />

The <strong>2012</strong> school year has come to an end. We can look back on a year that was richly blessed. Glory<br />
to our Heavenly Father for the blessings He bestowed so abundantly on Van<br />
Riebeeckstrand Primary.<br />
Thank you to:<br />
Parents who are always prepared to support.<br />
Parents who are always positive.<br />
All those learners who diligently gave their full co-operation.<br />
The VRS winning team: leadership team - teachers - secretaries - support staff.<br />
STAFF<br />
Miss Van der Spuy (vice-principal) who has been with VRS for 26 years, will retire at the end of<br />
December. Once again thank you for everything you did for VRS over the past 26 years. Money<br />
cannot buy your experience and we will miss it, as well as your passion for the under-privileged.<br />
Mrs Trish Dolley is the newly appointed vice-principal. We look forward to her joining us.<br />
Miss Razelle du Plessis and Miss Anca Bailey were both recently engaged! Congratulations to you<br />
both. Miss Bailey is also relocating to Northern Cape - we wish her everything of the best.<br />
Reghard van Dyk will be leaving us on short notice at the end of the term, but we wish him everything<br />
of the best in this endeavour. Reghard is going to work for Pro Sport and will be involved<br />
with the contracting of rugby players - a great passion of his! Reghard, the school, the learners,<br />
the parents, your colleagues and I, as principal, are going to miss you. We trust that your future<br />
holds everything you want in life!<br />
Ruan van Deventer and Amika Faber, two of our class assistants, will be leaving us at the end of<br />
the year. Best wishes to you both in your future endeavours.<br />
Cara Basson (Gr. 2e3) will be joining the staff of the new primary school in Sunningdale. We trust<br />
that she will be very happy there. Ms Madaleen Swanepoel will be taking her place.<br />

NUMBER OF LEARNERS<br />
We have ± 180 Gr. 1 enrolments for 2013.<br />
At this stage it looks as though the number of<br />
learners in January 2013 will be ±1 060.<br />
DO YOU WANT TO EMPOWER<br />
YOUR CHILDREN?<br />
Give them some responsibility!<br />
It is basic good manners to<br />

DID YOU KNOW?<br />
According to statistics,<br />
nine out of ten children<br />
will search for<br />
pornography on the<br />
internet. Will your child be one of them?<br />
SCHOOL HOURS FOR 2013<br />
The Governing Body has approved the<br />
extended hours of the school day for 2013. The<br />

Our deepest sympathy to those of you who have lost loved ones in <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Merry Christmas and best wishes for a prosperous 2013. May your<br />

SHOULD YOU BE PURCHASING A NEW SCHOOL BAG<br />

OFFERS GOOD BACK SUPPORT, STRONG<br />
COMPARTMENTS INSIDE AND HAS THE SCHOOL’S<br />
NAME ON THE FRONT. THERE IS ALSO A SEPARATE<br />
COMPARTMENT FOR LUCH BOXES. THIS BAG WILL<br />

INVESTMENT.<br />
THE SCHOOL BAGS COST R250 FOR THE SMALL BAG<br />
