It was lovely having Professor Welch from Miles College / Howard University in the USA this past Friday. She addressed our Grade 11 and Grade 12 learners.

It was inspiring and enlightening. Sincerest thanks to her.

We would also like to congratulate our top 5 performers for the second term in the UCS FET Section (Grades 10-12).

It was Will Durant who admonished: “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”

Keep up the good work. Make it a habit!

“I’ve always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come. I don’t do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, then I can expect half-hearted results.” ~ Michael Jordan

It was Ralph Marston who said: “Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality.”

These are the 5, top performing learners from grades 7 to 9, for Term 1 at UCS.

Congratulations to them! 👏🏾🏆

Just before they started writing their final exams, out Matric class of 2017 spent a Saturday with our principal Ms Ulster as is part of her annual custom.

With the help of two former learners, she shared practical and pragmatic insights on life and what they need to know to withstand its demands and succeed as they step into life after Matric.

There were positive debates, questions, answers and comments. It was a day made for young people with big dreams and a principal who is committed to ensuring that they pursue them with a grounded mindset.

As our learners would say, it was “lit”! 😊

Today, we were privileged to have Living Maths host an American engineer and former NASA astronaut Dr Don Thomas at UCS.

It was an exciting and inspirational day for our learners. Dr Thomas’ presentation opened the minds of our learners to a world were endless possibility exists for them through maths and science.

We were very happy to also have learners from Sacred Heart College visiting with us.
