Their stories reminded our learners that with dedication, hard work, and determination, their dreams can take them anywhere in the world.

Dream big. Work hard. Believe in yourself. The world is yours! ✨🌎

πŸ“š BACK TO SCHOOL – TERM 3 STARTS TOMORROW! πŸŽ‰

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Learners,

Tomorrow marks the beginning of Term 3, the second-last lap of the academic year. This is not the time to slow downβ€”it is the time to dig deep, stay focused, and give your very best.

To our learners:
Come to school ready to succeed. Be on time, wear the correct school uniform, bring all your books and stationery, and be prepared to work from Day 1. Every lesson counts, every mark matters, and every day is another opportunity to move closer to your goals.

To our parents and guardians:
Thank you for your continued partnership. Your support in ensuring that your child arrives at school on time, prepared, and ready to learn is invaluable. Together, we can help every learner finish the year on a high.

Let's make Term 3 one of commitment, growth, and excellence.

"We strive for better – Petimus Meliora."

Youth Day 2026 πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦

"Young voices changed the course of history, and young minds continue to shape the future."

Today we honour the courage, resilience, and determination of the youth of 1976, whose voices stood against injustice and inspired a nation. As we commemorate Youth Day, we celebrate the potential, dreams, and achievements of our learners, who carry the power to create positive change in their communities and beyond.

May we continue to empower our youth to lead with courage, learn with purpose, and dream without limits.

Happy Youth Day from Bishop Lavis High School! πŸ’šπŸ’™

Dear Parent/Guardian

This is a friendly reminder to please confirm your child's placement as soon as possible.

Please note that if placement is not confirmed by 15 June, the system may automatically confirm your learner at another school. Failure to confirm by the deadline will also be taken as an indication that you no longer require the placement offered at our school, and the space may then be allocated to another learner.

We encourage you to complete the confirmation process before 15 June to avoid disappointment.

Thank you for your cooperation.
