Issue 17 24 May 2019 © Ian Elvidge Issue 17 24 May 2019 24 May 2019 17 ‘…in those children we set in motion, waves breaking, carried away in their furl bits of ourselves…’ - Mariama Ba, from So Long a Letter I am having a love affair with modern African literature at the moment, and the lyrical profundity of this quotation from the Senegalese writer, Mariama Ba, speaks to the soul of an educator. When we teachers reflect on what we do, we are mindful that our precious charges carry away bits of ourselves ‘in the furl’ of the waves that are our students. Children are watching, we know. We teach children, before we inculcate knowledge and skill. And we shall never know for sure quite what they take away from their encounters with us. What a privilege (and responsibility) it is for us all, parents and educators alike, to influence the ‘waves’ in this century. I had the honour tonight to watch our Interact learners make presentations and receive accolades and awards at the annual Rotary/ Interact dinner. I shared with parents there how for me I have come full circle because as a young teacher at Milnerton High School (a hundred years ago) I ran the fledgling Interact Club there. Tonight, I sat proudly in the audience as our Curro Century City confident young leaders stood out among their peers with their poise and wisdom. Thank you to the staff involved in Interact: Mrs Judy Parr and Mr Kirk Armstrong for setting ‘these waves in motion’. I am excited at the prospect of these young servant leaders sharing ‘bits of [themselves] in the furl’ of the future. ELECTRONIC DEVICES Curro schools have made it our mission to ensure that the use of technology is integral to learning. The 2-in-1 devices our learners use are invaluable tools in the education process. Please make sure that they are not relegated to the bottom of the school bag like a forgotten, dog-eared textbook. They are so much more than that. Teachers regularly push additional resources, notes and practice tasks to them, as well as using them in the course of lessons as research tools, workstations, texts and interactive communication devices. Please check that your child has opened these additional resources. They must be active in their engagement with the learning process. Ask us at parent meetings how many pushed exercises your child has opened. There may well be a correlation with the outcome of the mid-year examinations. International research shows that one of the key indicators of a successful student is practise in the discipline. Practise really does make perfect. 2 24 May 2019 17 GRIT LOUNGE Several parents have indicated to us that the Lounge hours were not compatible with the times that working parents have available to visit the school. After consulting with Grit, I am pleased to announce that the Grit Lounge will now remain open until 18:00, twice a week from next week on, as well as opening up one Saturday every month, beginning with next Saturday, 1 June 2019. If your child needs Winter uniform and especially extra sportswear for the upcoming Nationals Tournament, this will assist. We have been assured that stock is available but get in soon with your orders because many schools have learners going on tour. On a side-note – all learners should be in full winter school uniform with a tie and blazer. NEW LOUNGE HOURS: 13:00 - 18:00 MONDAY 08:00 - 0900 / 12:00 - 15:00 TUESDAY 13:00 - 18:00 WEDNESDAY 08:00 - 0900 / 12:00 - 15:00 THURSDAY SATURDAY One Saturday per month (Dates will be discussed in advance) Our first Saturday will be on the 1st of June, we will be open from 09:00 - 12:00 RECYCLING Our children’s generation is taking far better care of the environment than we have in the past. Remember that CCC cares and we are recycling many items, and this is managed by the Interact Club. Utilize our recycling bins for your household recycling. In the words of the social anthropologist, Margaret Mead: ‘Never doubt that a small group of people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.’ Thank you for helping us to change the world. Regards Mrs Bentley 3 24 May 2019 17 MID-YEAR EXAMINATIONS With the start of the examinations, I just want to appeal to parents on the following: • Please ensure that learners are at school on time on days when they are writing. This is very important because learners become extremely anxious when they arrive late for the exams. Besides that, late coming also causes a disturbance for the rest of the learners who are already sitting for their exams. • Learners must be dressed in their full school uniform. This includes a school tie. Should a learner not have one and are waiting on stock from the Grit store, please send a note/letter with them to inform the teacher. • We have had an incident where a learner’s school bag was taken and put in a different location. This may have been done as a prank, but it is viewed in a very serious light. Please encourage your children NOT to engage in such activities. It upsets the people involved and it wastes unnecessary time spent on trying to find a learner’s belongings. It also causes unnecessary stress for learners when realizing their books to study are gone. • We have found that some learners still come to the exam room without the necessary material, i.e. calculator, drawing equipment, etc. Please ensure that they have all the necessary items before sitting down for the exams. We also recommend having more than one pen as these have a tendency to stop working at the worst possible times. On a positive note, our learners have made a very smooth transition into the examinations. This is very encouraging, and we applaud our learners for making such good efforts to uphold the rules of the examination s. Kind regards Mrs Da Silva 4 24 May 2019 17 PRACTICAL EXAMINATIONS Our Grade 10 Consumer Studies learners made scones and muffins with a scenario of catering for a Mother’s Day tea. The outcome was delicious! 5 24 May 2019 17 © Shaye Elvidge © Nicole de la Cruz © Nicole de la Cruz © Ian Elvidge © Shaye Elvidge © Nicole de la Cruz ZEITZ MOCAA The Grade 10 and 11 Visual Arts learners as well as the Grade 8 and 9 Art Club learners had the opportunity to see some amazing contemporary art at the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art in Africa! © Nicole de la Cruz 6 24 May 2019 17 SUPPORT FOR MAKAIRA Our very own Makaira Govender – who recently achieved her SA colours in vocals – will be travelling to New York in the June Holidays to partake in Talent America.

  • 21 April 2017 Dear Parents Welcome Back. I Trust You Have All Enjoyed
    21 April 2017 Dear Parents Welcome back. I trust you have all enjoyed the longer-than-normal Easter holiday and, like your sons, are ready for the unique challenges of the second term. I addressed the boys at the last assembly of the first term, emphasising the fact that they will need to exercise all their skills of prior planning, goal-setting (in all aspects of school life) and time-management, very well. In addition, a strong work ethic will be required in order to have a fulfilling academic, sporting and cultural term, which will be disrupted by next week’s long weekend. Your sons will require strong support, as usual, from yourselves and I trust that this will be an enjoyable term for all. A large number of rugby and hockey teams represented SACS at a number of pre-season Easter festivals during the break. I wish to thank the staff and boys for sacrificing hard-earned holiday time in order to establish a solid foundation for the Winter sporting season. I am confident that these tours will prove beneficial. I also thank the parents who supported our lads across the length and breadth of our county. Messrs Peverley, Grobler, van Zyl, Barnard and Willows accompanied the hockey teams, whilst Messrs van Selm, Maurer, Wepener, O’Connor, Molnar and Southgate went to the various rugby festivals. Thank you to all of them.

Thesis: MSc (Physics) March 2021 Radon (222Rn) is an inert, colourless, odourless radioactive gas that is generated by the alpha decay of radium (226Ra), a radionuclide in the uranium (238U) decay series. Radon (222Rn) is the primary source of environmental radiation exposure posing significant risks to human health. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that between 3 and 14% of lung cancers are attributable to radon and its progeny. There are a number of factors contributing in a multiplicative manner to the radon levels inside dwellings (e.g.
