hope that everybody will attend the show<br />

of the year. If the success of our choir<br />

and the drama performance entitled<br />

Breyten & Blake at the Tshwane Youth<br />

Arts Festival is something to go by,<br />

then the pantomime promises to be a<br />

roaring success and a true celebration of<br />

culture that is growing in stature at our<br />

school. During the Eisteddfod Art prize<br />

giving, Calain Bloys was announced as<br />

the winner of Grade 10 photography<br />

category. Mieke Bolhuis won in a number<br />

of categories and was subsequently<br />

declared as the overall winner of the<br />

Pretoria Eisteddfod.<br />

Soccer (for boys and girls), cricket, cross<br />

country, mountain biking, chess, indoor<br />

hockey and golf were the sport activities<br />

of the term; and to top it all off, a number<br />

of our boys are currently busy with rugby<br />

and cricket trials for provincial accolades<br />

and representation. All of them made us<br />

with similar rules, followed this. Then we<br />

moved on to the Chariots of Fire Relay<br />

Race. We concluded with the Lenteliedjie<br />

competition. All the celebrations took<br />

place in a house competition format. The<br />

question remains - WHO WON?<br />

On the last day of school, we have our<br />

annual Matric Farewell. We want to invite<br />

the whole community to come and enjoy<br />

the arrival parade at school, starting at<br />

17:00 on the red carpet. Come have a<br />

look at the dresses and cars and wave<br />

our matrics off to enjoy a memorable<br />

evening at the secret venue.<br />

As we go into the final stretch, have a wellearned<br />

rest to come back rejuvenated to<br />

conclude <strong>2018</strong> and set the foundation for<br />

2019.<br />

Spring Day was truly celebrated this<br />

year. We started the day by making an<br />
