Remembering Simon 🤍🕊️

We sadly say goodbye to an extraordinary staff member at the College, Simon Mthethwa, whose kindness, warm smile, and patience touched countless lives.

His presence brought comfort and warmth to those around him, and he will be deeply missed. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Inspiring Inquiry in the Classroom – Staff Training 📚✨

Our staff recently participated in a professional learning session with Trevor MacKenzie, renowned educator, author, and inquiry consultant.

Through practical strategies and a student-centred approach, Trevor shared valuable insights into inquiry-based teaching and learning, encouraging teachers to further strengthen learner agency, curiosity, and engagement in the classroom.

The session provided meaningful ideas and inspiration that will continue to enrich inquiry learning across our school. 🌟

Mini Council Leadership Dinner 🌟

The Johannesburg Mini Council Leadership Dinner brought together young leaders from across the city, including our Mini Councilors and six selected Grade 7 representatives.

Learners enjoyed an evening of connection, inspiration, and leadership, meeting peers from other schools and listening to a motivational speaker who shared her powerful journey of living with Clarkson's Disease.

It was a wonderful opportunity to build new friendships, celebrate leadership, and be inspired by the experiences of others. 💙✨

On Monday, 25 May, several students were awarded merit certificates, as well as half and full colours for sport, service, and drama at our final assembly for the term.

🌙 Eid al-Adha Mubarak! May this special day bring joy and prosperity to you and your loved ones.

Our Grade 00 learners explored how their choices affect plants through a hands-on learning experience using leaves, flowers, light projection, and magnification tools. 🌿✨

By observing healthy and unhealthy plants, the children shared thoughtful reflections and discussed how plants may “feel” when cared for or neglected.

Through this engaging activity, learners deepened their understanding that people, plants, and animals depend on food to live and grow, while also developing empathy, observation skills, and a sense of responsibility towards living things.
