The Cambridge Primary School family is proudly cheering on Mrs Green as she represents South Africa at the Hockey Masters World Cup in the Netherlands!

Today she takes to the field for her very first World Cup match as South Africa faces Ireland. To make the occasion even more special, Mrs Green has been named in the starting line-up - meaning she has been selected as one of the players who will begin the match on the field. What an incredible honour!

Push back is at 09:00, and we know she will wear the green and gold with pride, determination and true South African spirit.

From all your learners, colleagues and the Cambridge community, we wish you the very best for your first match and for the tournament ahead.

Go, Mrs Green! Go, South Africa! 🇿🇦🏑

Congratulations to our very own Courtney-Rose Pike (Grade 6) on an outstanding performance at the Rhodes University Indoor 2026 archery competition, held on 17–18 July.

After dedicating much of her school holiday to training and practice, Courtney's hard work paid off in spectacular fashion. On the opening day of the competition, she achieved two new personal best scores, both of which are now new Eastern Cape Under-13 Girls records. She also shot her first Eastern Cape Provincial qualifying score of the season. With three more qualifying scores, Courtney will earn her Eastern Cape Provincial Colours -:an incredible milestone to work towards.

Her success continued on Sunday when she set yet another record, achieving a phenomenal 282/300 in a single round. This not only earned her the gold medal, but also established a new Eastern Cape and high school record. Averaging more than 9.3 points out of 10 with every arrow, Courtney demonstrated remarkable focus, precision and consistency - qualities that define an exceptional archer.

What impresses us most is Courtney's humility and determination. Despite her incredible achievements, she remains focused on improving as she prepares for the Eastern Cape District Championships in August.

Archery is a sport that demands discipline, patience, concentration and mental resilience. Courtney's achievements are a testament to the rewards of perseverance and dedication, and she is an inspiration to her fellow learners.

We are incredibly proud of you, Courtney-Rose, and wish you every success as you continue your journey. We look forward to cheering you on at the Eastern Cape District Championships!
