Newlands Junior College

This quiet, 5 minute walkthrough of the empty NJC building in no way reflects the triumphs or the disappointments, nor the fun, laughter and happy, noisy chaos that the NJC family has experienced within its walls. We do hope however that it will give those that worked with us or visited us over the last 5 years, a chance to remember just what we all achieved here.

Lee Iacocca the Ford executive and latterly Chrysler Cars CEO once said, “The thing that lies at the foundation of positive change, the way I see it, is service to a fellow human being.” As Philip our Depute Principal reiterated at today’s graduation ceremony, NJC was always only ever about one thing; service to and for the benefit of the students.

This is not the end of the NJC story, it is merely the beginning of a new chapter. Exciting times lie ahead for all of our graduates and we can’t wait to hear how they all get on.

‘they tried to bury us, they did not know we were seeds’.
