ES le Grange Special School

Winterspele 2026, wat 'n ongelooflike ervaring!

Baie dankie aan elke leerder wat deelgeneem het en elke dag hul beste gegee het. Julle entoesiasme, deursettingsvermoë en spanwerk het hierdie Winterspele besonders gemaak.

'n Groot woord van waardering aan ons opvoeders en personeel wat die extra myl geloop het om alles moontlik te maak. Julle harde werk, ondersteuning en toewyding word raakgesien en opreg waardeer.

Aan ons ouers...
THANK YOU for your unwavering support, encouragement and willingness to be part of every moment. Ons waardeer elke aanmoediging langs die veld en elke hand wat gehelp het.

En aan al die besoekende skole, thank you for the sportsmanship, friendships and memories created. It was a privilege to host you, and we are already looking forward to welcoming you back next year!

Together we made WINTERGAMES 2026 one to remember! 💙🤍

By ons Winterspele gaan dit nie net oor wen nie, maar oor deelname, vriendskap, deursettingsvermoë en pret. Ons vier elke leerder wat deelneem en elke opvoeder wat aanmoedig, ondersteun en organiseer.
Julle maak hierdie week besonders! ⭐🏅💙

Dankie aan die SAOU vir die geleentheid om as gasheerskool op te tree vir hierdie waardevolle werksessie. Dit was 'n voorreg vir ons hoof, Michelle Lessing-Jerling, en die twee adjunkhoofde, Fanus Wiese en Hetta Barnard om as sprekers deel te wees van die gesprek oor ondersteuning vir LSOB-leerders en die versterking van dissipline.

E.S. is geseënd!!
Vandag vier ons skool 63 jaar van groei, toewyding en uitnemendheid. Dankie aan elke leerder, opvoeder, ouer en personeellid wat deel is van hierdie besondere nalatenskap. Gelukkige 63ste verjaardag aan ons skool! 🎂
Today we celebrate 63 years of growth, dedication, and excellence. Thank you to every learner, educator, parent, and staff member who has contributed to this remarkable legacy. Happy 63rd Birthday to our school! 🎂

Drie van Ligbron Independent School se opvoeders het vandag by E.S. kom kuier. Mag dit wat julle oor spesiale onderwys geleer het, ’n blywende verskil maak in julle skool en in elke leerder se lewe wat julle aanraak.

Today, on International Nurses Day, we celebrate two very special women, Gwendo and Lilian, who are far more than just nurses at E.S. le Grange School. You are comforters, protectors, listeners, healers, and safe places for so many of our learners and staff.
Every bandage you place, every tear you wipe away, every comforting word you speak, and every moment of patience and kindness you show, makes a difference far greater than words can express. In a world where many only see challenges, you see children with love, dignity, and endless potential.
Thank you for the long days, the emotional moments, the silent sacrifices, and the compassion you pour into our school every single day. Your hearts are woven into the story of E.S. le Grange, and our school is a softer, safer, and more loving place because of you.
Today, we honour not only what you do, but who you are.
May you always remember that the care you give so freely changes lives in ways you may never fully realise. Our learners may forget many things one day, but they will never forget how you made them feel, cared for, protected, and loved.
Happy International Nurses Day to our two incredible nurses. We appreciate you more than words could ever say.
From every child and staff member at E.S. le Grange.

Aan al die ongelooflike mamma’s van ons kinders, Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸

Dankie vir elke vroeë oggend, elke gebed, elke drukkie, elke traan wat stil afgevee word, en elke keer wat julle weer opstaan vir julle kinders. Julle liefde maak ‘n verskil wat nie altyd met woorde beskryf kan word nie.

Maar vandag vier ons ook die vroue binne ons skoolmure wat elke dag met oop harte dien, our female educators, supervisors, hostel staff en household aids. Thank you for the care, patience, kindness and unconditional support you give our learners daily.

Julle help nie net met onderrig en versorging nie, julle help bou aan selfvertroue, veiligheid, warmte en hoop. To every woman who nurtures, protects, teaches and loves, thank you for helping us raise and care for these precious children.

Happy Mother’s Day to each and every one of you. Julle word raakgesien, waardeer en diep bewonder.

We are excited and proud to be the first LSEN school in the province to implement the MOVEE programme.

This week our staff completed MOVEE training, focusing on functional movement, coordination and learning through movement, adapted to meet the diverse needs of our learners.
The programme supports development, participation and confidence, while strengthening the link between movement and learning.

We look forward to the positive impact MOVEE will have on our learners as we continue to grow, learn and move together.
