Na die Junie-vakansie is ons weer volstoom aan die gang. Hierdie kwartaal het begin met die aankondiging van die nuwe adjunkhoof, Me Alta Nel. Me Nel is betrokke by VHS vanaf 1984 en dit is ‘n voorreg om haar aan die stuur te hê.
Ons wens haar alles van die beste toe met hierdie nuwe hoofstuk.
Just before the schools closed, VHS received the results from two different Olympiads some of our learners participated in. The Proverto Accounting Olympiad was written by 9 learners of which 2 are going through to the second round to be written on 31 July 2019. Congratulations to K Madi and X Ngobese (both in grade 11) for achieving above 70% during round 1.
It was the first year that the English Olympiad was written by VHS learners. This exam paper tests the learner’s ability to think critically and to incorporate what they learn at school when answering the questions. Five of our learners participated with 2 learners achieving more than 70%. Congratulations to Kwandi Nkosi (grade 12) and Alessia Pillay (grade 10) with this amazing achievement.
Ndumiso Nyawo, Siya Sibiya and Khaya Khuzwayo participated in the Academy week in Bloemfontein during the holidays. Ndumiso’s performance has won him the attention of Rugby Travel who help rising stars play for clubs overseas. Well done, Ndumiso.
