Crawford College La
Lucia hosted retirees
from various retirement
homes across Durban for
a special performance of
our production of 'Annie'
this year. The Grade 9
students provided the
retirees with refreshments
at interval and, along with
the cast, spent some time
interacting with them and
having a bit of fun.
Crawford College Lonehill
The Crawford College Lonehill CARES students regularly
visit Marang House, where they assist the children with
improving their English language skills. Through the
playing of games, the children at our recent visit learnt
more about food types, different animals and their
characteristics and the tasks related to specific jobs and
professions. After an afternoon filled with fun and laughter,
it's always difficult for both Crawford students and students
from Marang House to say goodbye. We treasure our time
together and we always look forward to our next meeting.

on greater responsibility and running activities in the
classroom under teacher supervision. We look forward
to another great term ahead with our wonderful
students and Crawford College Lonehill. Thank you
to our Crawford College Lonehill Alumni Justin Carlse
and his team for believing in their dream!
Crawford College North Coast Crawford College North Coast
student Abigail Parkin in
Grade 11 is extremely
interested in the impact that
the beauty industry has on
the environment, as well as on
ourselves. Her dream career
is to create awareness and
bring change to this evergrowing
industry. Abigail
would like to research how
much our everyday beauty
products negatively impact our
environment contributing to
pollution and draining our natural resources. She’d also like
to create consumer awareness around the darker side of
this industry, and whether or not these products are actually
the end product of unethical activity. Abigail is keen to find
out how we can make this industry a transparent and clean
one that protects the environment as well as the people
involved. She’s a committed member of the Crawford
College North Coast Interact Club, and is a passionate and
caring individual, always willing to assist and devote her
time selflessly to others.
