Dear Parent(s) / Guardian(s):
WELCOME: Welcome to the student teachers Ms Laura Christen-Manzick who is visiting us from Germany until 15 March and Nicole Gammise who is with us for the week. We hope they enjoy their time at CBPS!
INTER-HOUSE GALAS: This is a BIG swimming week with the Junior Inter-house gala (grades 3 & 4) on Wednesday, an Inter- schools’ gala at Kenridge Primary and the Senior Inter-house (grades 5 to 7) on Friday. The Inter-house galas are fun days and although the galas include events for competitive swimming, there are also fun events for all children to participate in which makes the gala special. Unfortunately, I am away on Wednesday at a WCED Principals’ meeting at Portia Primary which was scheduled after we set the gala dates and CBPS calendar! On Friday, I also have to be away for part of the morning to attend the official opening of the new Science/Biology building at Camps Bay High School by the Head of Education, Mr Brian Schreuder. Apologies but hopefully I will be able to be present for part of the morning of the Senior Inter- house gala. Good luck to all the swimmers and to the organisers, Ms Rautenbach and Ms Gill at the respective galas.
