Crawford Preparatory Lonehill
Crawford Preparatory Lonehill is proud of
the achievements of the Lil Amigas Hip Hop
Dance crew, that competed in numerous Hip
Hop competitions in 2018, including the SA
Provincial Dance Championships in October
where they were awarded a Gold Medal
along with their Provincial Colours. This year
the group continues their unrelenting pursuit
of competitive Dance in SA and has shifted
focus to a more Ballet, Contemporary, Jazz
training and Rhythmic Gymnastics genre,
enabling them to enter the Battle of the
Giants and Dance Star SA to qualify to
compete in Croatia in 2020. We wish them
all the best on the right track to fame!

Enjoying the Arts!
The Grade 3 Art
pupils did a study on
“Who Are We?” They
studied the shape
of their faces, eyes
and lips, drawing
self-portraits with
Ms. Greffrath. They
showcased these for
all to see.
C-Harmony is a group that was established in 2018 by pupils and
staff who have a great love for Music. C-Harmony stands for Crawford
Harmony and consists of a singing group and a Marimba group.
Children learn to sing and harmonise, training their voices and ear as
well as learning to play the Marimbas. The group consisting of about 40
pupils are exposed to different genres of Music under the guidance of
co-ordinators Ms. Faith December and Mrs. Eslè Talbot. They’re training
to potentially take part in upcoming Eisteddfods and the Crawford Arts
Festivals (CAF) later this year.

Journey of discovery in Drama
Here, the Grade 6 pupils are performing Act
1, Scene 4 of Harry Potter and the Cursed
Child. This is a transition scene showing time
passing quickly. This type of performance
really challenges the pupils as performers as
they learn that the scene changes need to
be minimal and they cannot rely on props
and costumes but rather their own physicality
during the performance.
Cultural Rendezvous
Crawford Preparatory Pretoria
hosted a Cultural Rendezvous,
an evening of Arts, Drama
and Music. The guests enjoyed
a street festival of stalls and
exhibitions followed by a
musical concert, all performed
by Crawford Preparatory
Pretoria pupils.
Crawford Preparatory Sandton
Public Speaking
Both Crawford Preparatory Sandton’s Public
Speaking teams achieved A+ results in the recent
Johannesburg Speech and Drama Challenge.
We’re extremely proud of you all!

Sand Art turned into a movie
Celebrating Human Rights month,
the Grade 7 pupils of Crawford
Preparatory Pretoria watched a Sand
Art presentation on the ravages of war
on people. They had to reflect on this
and produce a script to create their own
movie using their iPad skills. The pupils
used flour and blackboards from the
Art Room, producing a multi-medium
task relating to human rights violations.
We’re very proud of each and every
pupil’s end product. Congratulations!
Every child a masterpiece | 41
