  NEWSLETTER: PREP. SCHOOL  -  Stephen Bryan

WELCOME

We welcome all our new pupils, Year 4 boys and Mr Keith Viljoen (Year 5V) to the Prep. Section.

ACADEMICS

The boys have already settled into a good study routine.  Term 1 is a CUMULATIVE term—continuous assessment takes place as no formal exams are written.  The College diary is to be signed every day by parents, even if no homework is given for the day.

Congratulations to our 2008 matric class on their excellent results achieved.  We are also extremely proud of our Year 6 classes of 2008 (present Year 7s) who achieved Top 20 results out of 1350 schools in the 2008 Conquesta Olympiads held last year!

PARENTS’ EVENING

Many thanks for the good support last night, Wednesday 21 January.  Parents have had the opportunity to meet their son’s teachers and be aware of the expectations for a successful 2009.

EXTRA-MURAL PROGRAMME

All boys received the programme last week.  The programme is designed so that boys can first attend culturals and then the sports’ practices afterwards.  Homework supervision is available in the Media Centre from 13h30—1500 from Monday to Thursday.  Parents are reminded that outside interests must not clash with school commitments.

SPORT

Well done on the excellent support for cricket practices so early in the year.  Swimming is proving very popular with our boys.  Boys may also participate in tennis and squash.

CULTURALS

The main focus will be on the Wednesday concert practices this term.  Boys may also participate in Chess, Pipe Band, Chatterbox and Bible Quiz.

ACADEMIC SUPPORT

Extra support will be on offer to Year 6 and 7 boys (English and Math) this term.  The staff will monitor and assess all boys throughout the term.  Where needed, extra support will be provided.

SCHOOLBOY OF THE WEEK AWARDS

These awards are presented at Assembly every Monday to those boys who have achieved very well according to their abilities.  Boys may keep their trophy for the duration of the week.
