THANK YOU COACH TANNER

Well… what a run it’s been!

For the past two terms, you have generously given your time, energy, enthusiasm, patience and kindness to our PE sessions — and we honestly couldn’t be more grateful.

You somehow managed to bring energy levels to PE that most of us can only dream of having before our first coffee! Your enthusiasm was infectious, and your patience deserves a medal of its own. 🏅

What has been particularly special is the way you have seen each child and each group as individuals. You noticed what they needed, adapted your games and lessons accordingly, and somehow managed to keep everyone moving, learning and (mostly!) smiling.

We have seen such a huge improvement during your time with us — not only in skills, but also in attitude, confidence and teamwork. You have made a real difference, and we hope you know just how much that has been appreciated.

Now, of course, you’re off to study, leaving us behind with slightly fitter children and some very big PE shoes to fill!

We wish you all the very best for this exciting next chapter. We hope you have an amazing time, learn lots, have plenty of adventures — and perhaps squeeze in the odd game of sport along the way!

Thank you, Tanner, for everything you have given our children and our school. You will definitely be missed.

🌸 Happy Birthday, Maria Montessori! 🌸

Today, we celebrate the remarkable woman whose vision transformed the way we understand and nurture children. Your belief that every child is capable, curious, independent, and full of potential continues to inspire educators and parents around the world.

Your timeless message reminds us that education is not simply about filling young minds with knowledge, but about creating an environment where children can discover, explore, and become the best versions of themselves.

May we continue to honour your legacy by following the child, respecting their individuality, and nurturing their love for learning and life.

✨ “The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind.”

Happy Birthday, Maria Montessori — your legacy lives on in every child who is given the freedom to learn, grow, and flourish. 🌱💛

Happy Women’s Day! 🌸💐

Today, we celebrate and honour the incredible women and girls who make our school community so special.

To the wonderful women who care for, nurture and support our children, thank you for the love, sacrifices, encouragement and strength you give every day. Your role in shaping and supporting the next generation is truly invaluable.

To our beautiful young ladies, may you always know your worth and recognise the amazing potential within you. Be confident in who you are, pursue your dreams with courage, and never let anyone dim your light. The future is yours to shape. ✨

May we continue to uplift, encourage and celebrate one another—not only today, but every day.

Happy Women’s Day to all the phenomenal women and girls in our school community! ❤️🌷

Celebrating Nelson Mandela Day and honoring Madiba's legacy through kindness and service.

Our school chose to collect shoes for those in need, and we are incredibly proud to share that, thanks to the generosity of our children, parents, local businesses, and the wider community, we collected 145 pairs of shoes!

These donations will be distributed to Zimele Centre for people with intellectual disabilities, the Molweni CPF patrollers, and a home supporting single mothers and fathers.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed. Together, we proved that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. ❤️👣
