We are thankful to be able to go on our knees and thank our heavenly Father that we have jobs and are privileged to work with His creations and prepare them for the challenges the future holds. People tend to focus on the negative in life to such an extent that we sometimes lose track of the beautiful and meaningful. Fortunately there are numerous positive things taking place at our school. To name a few: The gr 1 Openday, the gr 6 Leaders’ Camp, the gr 7 Educational tour and many more. We appreciate the invaluable co-operation and support of teachers and parents! Thought for the week: “Live for today, love for tomorrow, and laugh at all your yesterdays. Never regret the past, always hope for the future, and cherish every moment you have.” Prysuitdeling / Prize Giving 22 & 23 Okt
