Life Skills - Baby Project

Thanks to Miss van wyk for her time with the kids working through the " Frankensteining " of their babies. We officially have a class of " pre-teen parents ". They have been tasked with looking after these babies for the next two weeks. Stay tuned for more updates.

New Term

While Term 2 was a whirlwind with so much going on both inside and out the classroom, along with the perparations for exams we didn't get much time to blog, So here are Ra'ees and Eljiah both giving me " the look " and basically implying

 " Mr Swindale you best get our photo's up and show the rest of the world just what we Grade 6s get up to " or something along those lines.

Term 3 is always an exciting Term with lot's on the go, we look forward to many exciting events like 

Winter Sports Day, Kommetjie Primary School's Talent show ( look out for us we've got something special planned ), Arts Week, Mandela Day, The paper Drive just to name a few.
