LONGCROFT PRIMARY SCHOOL GRADE 7 EMS MARKET DAY WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!

Entrepreneurship came alive at Longcroft Primary School as our Grade 7 learners hosted their annual EMS Market Day!

The day was filled with excitement, creativity and delicious treats as our young entrepreneurs put their Economic and Management Sciences skills into practice. From tasty eats, cool drinks, snacks, fancy stationery and fun games - our learners planned, budgeted, marketed and sold their products like true business owners.

The Market Day taught our learners valuable lessons in entrepreneurship, financial literacy, teamwork, customer service and money management.

We are so proud of our Grade 7s for their hard work and innovative ideas!

Well done, Longcroft Grade 7s - the future business leaders of tomorrow!

Longcroft Primary School Hosts An Inspiring Grade 7 Career Day

Longcroft Primary School successfully hosted its annual Grade 7 Career Day, an event aimed at guiding and inspiring learners as they prepare for high school and beyond.

The programme exposed learners to a wide range of career options and provided valuable insights into the world of work. This was made possible by a panel of motivational speakers who shared their personal career journeys, challenges, and words of encouragement.

In the spirit of the day, learners came dressed in the uniforms of their dream careers, showcasing their ambitions with pride and enthusiasm. The creativity and confidence displayed was truly heart-warming.

The school would like to extend sincere gratitude to all speakers, parents, and teachers who contributed to making the day a memorable and educational experience for our future leaders.

Sports Day + 45th Anniversary Celebrations🎉

On Friday, 29 May 2026, we celebrated 45 years of Longcroft Primary with a Sports Day full of energy and team spirit.

Congratulations to the "Diamond" house who achieved victory and won.
All houses did well - Sapphire, Crystal and Pearl competed with courage and pride from start to finish.

Our children gave their all in every event: the relays, novelty races, 60m, 80m, 100m and all other races. It was brilliant to see the effort, sportsmanship, and smiles all round.

Here’s to 45 years of Longcroft spirit, and a fantastic Sports Day to remember.

Today was tug-of-war, and the field came alive as the four houses went head-to-head. *Pearl, Diamond, Sapphire, and Crystal* all brought incredible energy, teamwork, and determination.
It was brilliant to see the learners giving their all, cheering each other on, and showing real house pride out on the rope.

Friday is Sports Day with the races to finish the week. The excitement is already building!

Well done to all four houses for making it such a fantastic week of sport.

Longcroft Primary School celebrated Freedom Day with a day full of meaning and pride.*
Learners delivered speeches and poems that spoke about what freedom means to them, and the energy lifted as they performed a powerful freedom dance together. The highlight was a role play on the first election in South Africa — the historic 1994 vote where South Africa got freedom — with learners acting as voters and officials to show exactly how democracy began. Acting out the election taught them that freedom wasn’t just given; it was won when ordinary people stood in line to vote. From words to movement to stepping into history, the day helped every child understand that their vote will matter too one day, and celebrate the freedom our country won🇿🇦
