And off we go......

To all our families past and present...please join us for a morning of fun and community on Saturday the 13th of June from 10h00 to 13h30 at Bergvliet Primary Scool in Children's Way, Bergvliet. Tickets and food tokens can be bought at the door. R50 per adult, children are free. We have a number of food stalls show casing foods from around the world. From Calamari and Vetkoek to Bratwurst and Belgian Waffles, we have a vast array of food choice. A guest artist will be performing for us from 11 till 12. It promises to be a great morning. Hope to see you there!

Our MTM International food fair is just around the corner.....

Just like the bee..."Never underestimate the power of small things.
A tiny action, a kind word, or a single decision can create ripples far greater than we imagine.

Many people hold back because they believe they are not important enough to matter.
But change has never depended on size... it depends on intention and consistency.

History, relationships, and even daily life are shaped by small moments repeated over time.

So do what you can, where you are, with what you have.
Even the smallest presence can make a lasting difference."

This week in the classroom...... Continuing on our African journey, the children made homemade bread and learned about the amazing Baobab Tree. Many of them tasted the Baobab fruit (also known as "Monkey Bread"). Baobab fruit is high in vitamin C, it tastes like a vitamin C tablet. It can be eaten, used as a medicine, and is a natural food source for animals such as monkeys, elephants and rodents. There are many African legends about the Baobab Tree, but most of them mention that the tree was taken out of the ground by an African god and re-planted upside down, which is why its branches look like roots.

Hope you all had a chance to escape into the pages of a good book today. Happy World Book Day 2026.
