|| Mini-Netball ||

We are excited to share that some of our netball coaches recently attended the PEP Mini-Netball Coaching Session, where they gained valuable knowledge, practical skills, and fresh ideas to bring back to our young players.

The afternoon was incredibly informative, inspiring, and fun*, and our coaches thoroughly enjoyed every moment of learning and growing together.

A special word of thanks to PEP Mini-Netball , Dr Elsje Jordaan, Minette Dempsey, and Dumisane Chauke for sharing your expertise and passion for developing netball at grassroots level.

We would also like to thank Laerskool Baillie Park - amptelik for hosting the event and for spoiling all the attendees with your warm hospitality.

We look forward to implementing what we have learned and continuing to grow our netball programme for the benefit of our players.

|| PAWS Haven Collection ||

Today, PAWS Haven Paws Haven Potchefstroom collected the generous donations made by our Potchefstroom Central School learners. Thanks to your kindness, the shelter received wet and dry food, blankets, and toys for the animals in their care.

A heartfelt thank you to every learner and family who contributed. Your generosity and compassion will make a real difference in the lives of these animals.

We would also like to thank all our teachers for their donations and for encouraging our learners to support this worthy cause. A special word of appreciation goes to Mrs. Labuschagne and Mrs. van der Bergh for all their hard work and organisation behind the scenes. Your dedication helped make this collection a great success.

We are incredibly proud of our school community for coming together to help animals in need.

|| Controlled Tests ||

Controlled tests will be starting soon. It is very important that all learners attend school every day so that they are fully prepared.

Teachers will be doing revision in class and checking learners’ books to ensure all work is up to date. Please note that no revision can be done if books are not at school.

Make sure you:

* Attend school regularly
* Bring all your books every day
* Keep your work up to date
* Stay focused and prepared

Let’s work hard and make these controlled tests a success!
