Cross Country
Building up to our 4th league race this past week was nothing short of amazing, as our learners endured steep climbs and almost rolled off curbed edges. They remained focused on the task at hand and finished their 2km races with ease. Having continued to train hard, we successfully competed in our final race for the term this past Wednesday, 20 May 2026, which took place at Hoërskool Jan Van Riebeeck.
Well done to all our Cross Country Learners for all their hard work in completing their past races

We are proud to share the exceptional achievements of Gabriella Ely (Grade 9), who recently represented both our school and country at the prestigious Dance Star World Dance Championships in Croatia.

- 1st Place: Lyrical Duo
- 2nd Place: HipHop Solo
- 2nd Place: Ripples Ballet Group
- 2nd Place: Sway Jazz Group
- 2nd Place: Little Dreamers Contemporary Large Group

Securing top-three placements in six distinct world-class categories is an extraordinary accomplishment. We commend Gabriella for her hard work, discipline, and exemplary sportsmanship throughout the tournament.
