Maak toe die gat 2 in die vraestel-dam ’ The ties that bind us’ are plentiful Leerders het tydens die Junie- eksamen interne vraestelle Each activity at school has a unique but definite identification geskryf in plaas van die departementele vraestelle wat verskaf is. Die Jaarlikse Nasionale Assessering (ANA) is standaard nasionale assessering vir tale en wiskunde. Die vraestelle en memorandums word aan skole voorsien deur die Nasionale Departement van Basiese Onderrig en skole beheer die skryf van die toetse sowel as die moderering daarvan. Die rede vir die skryf van interne vraestelle is dat die ANA-vraestelle gelek het en tussen die leerders versprei is. Die skool het vroegtydig ekstra vraestelle opgestel vir ingeval so iets gebeur. Die eksamen- rooster het onveranderd gebly, soos dit vir departementele vraestelle sou wees. Nie al die toetse was interne vraestelle nie. Die graad 11’s se fisiese wetenskappe vraestel was nog steeds depar- tementeel. Matthew Nel, ‘n graad 11-leerder, sê hy sal eerder Grey se vraestelle skryf omdat hy weet dat die vrae sal kom uit die werk wat hulle in die klas behandel het en dan kan die onderwyser hulle beter help om voor te berei vir die toets. Hy dink dat die moeilikheidsgraad van die vraestelle hoër is as dié van die Grey-vraestelle. Matthew sê: ”Toegang tot die departementele vraestelle A wide variety of ties grace not only the walls, but the collars of learners who deserve it.

Mr Jannie Geldenhuys, be a part of a Grey gentleman’s children and in how their children solve problems. Detention is a good way to deal with fights, but one must look further than the symptoms of the fight. We need to bring the basics back and have a better attitude. Once this happens and we understand each other’s cultural differences, we will cultivate respect for everyone. Once we start getting this right the basics of the school will fall into place, and the number of fights will decrease. We need to start understanding why the traditions of the school are in place.

Drie-jaar ‘droogte’ 4 finaal gebreek Katza is a great catch for Grey soccer Die Kollege het homself in Mei teen Boishaai laat hoor toe Grey Press conference held to welcome awesome addition to sport die eerste skolespan geword het om dié Kapenaars na drie jaar op hul plek te sit. Die eerste rugbyspan was nie die enigste uitblinker tydens hierdie interskole nie. Die Indomitus, wat reeds Donderdagaand hul aankoms in die Boland gemaak het, het uitstekend gevaar. Grey se landlopers, debatspanne en bergfietsryers het hulle oorrompel. Die hokkiespanne het beïndruk, toe hulle 12 uit 12 wenne in ‘n reeks wedstryde verseker het. Die rugbyspelers het gemengde welslae gehad, maar het darem oorwegend gewen.‘n Opsomming van die naweek se uitslae lyk as volg: Grey verloor 19, speel gelykop in 3 en wen ‘n uitmuntende 38 wedstryde, in al die verkillende sportsoorte wat plaasgevind het. Grey se eerste rugbyspan het geskiedenis gemaak toe hulle vir Boishaai 34-20 geklop het. Om ‘n drie jaar segetog in so ‘n aanskoulike wedstryd te verbrokkel, is iets wat nie sommer maklik gebeur nie. Alhoewel Grey reeds vir ‘n reeks Suid-Afrikaanse skole-reuse lesse geleer het, lê daar nog ‘n paar struikelblokke in ons pad.

Selfs reën en hael staan nie in die pad van Grey-broederskap se sukses

Die verlede leer ons dat in tye van swaarkry is dit spanwerk en die vermoë van ‘n broederskap om saam te funksioneer, wat die sukses van daardie span sal bepaal. In die afgelope kwartaal het Grey Kollege weereens op menige gebiede hiérdie stelling bewys en getoon dat passie vir ons geliefde skool iets is wat elke Grey-leerder saam met hom dra. Grey gaan oor meer as net die geboue of fasiliteite, Grey gaan oor die seuns. Dit is die seuns wat in tye van onstabiliteit in die skoolomgewing steeds gefokus bly op die bou van ‘n “legacy” en om elke dag ‘n bietjie “Grey magic” te beleef. Hiérdie “Grey magic” kon beleef word in die Paarl, waar die eerste rugbyspan met 34-20 geseëvier het om die span van die Hoër Jongenskool Paarl, wat tot op daardie stadium onoorwonne was teen ander skolespanne in Suid-Afrika (hulle het slegs verloor teen spanne uit Argentinië en Nieu- Seeland), se onoorwonne status te beëindig. Nie ‘n enkele Grey-hokkiespan het in die Paarl verloor nie. Die interskole teen Selborne was ook een vir die boeke; die pawiljoen Hard work results in continued success was gepak met Grey-seuns toe reën en selfs hael op die hoofveld toesak. Die weersomstandighede het egter nie die seuns gekeer om liedjies soos: “Sing The editor the highlights every year. an unprecedented (for them, at vir my saggies, sing van die reën” of “Forwards form the scrum” te sing nie.

Grey neem jaarliks aan ongeveer ses amptelike interskole geleenthede deel, waarvan minstens drie nie op eie bodem plaasvind nie. Vir die “weg-inters”, maak die skool gebruik van soveel as 18 toerbusse om die Grey-seuns veilig tot by die gasheerskool te vervoer en weer terug te bring. Hoewel treintoere goedkoper as busritte was, is dit ongelukkig nie vandag meer moontlik nie. Suid- Afrika se spoorweg-infrastruktuur is te bevraagteken wat die seuns se veiligheid in gedrang mag bring en Spoornet is nie in staat om treine eenkant toe te skuif vir interskole geleenthede nie. Dus moes Grey noodgedwonge die skuif na busse as vervoermiddel maak. “Busritte is ongelukkig net te onpersoonlik met die beknoptheid wat almal tot hulself isoleer,” sê Mnr Ingo Machts. Tot en met 2010 het leerders, Steyn Graphic: Rocco afrigters en personeel per trein na die “weg-inters” gery.

The Grey Way is a series in which new learners are welcomed into the school and are taught the ways of becoming a Grey gentleman. The Grade 8 group has the opportunity to learn the “basics” of Grey from people to whom the success and growth of the school literally means the world. It was made clear that when a Grey Boy wears his blazer, he puts differences aside to become one with his fellow Grey brothers. Thus, in the long run the Grey Way should be of immeasurable value to the school. It was once said by former headmaster, Mr Johan Volsteedt, that a Grey gentleman does not need rules. The only value that defines a Grey gentleman is respect. We are taught that alignment and unity play a big role in becoming part of the Grey family. According to Mr Craig Steyn, language teacher, the Grey Way is a lifestyle where learners and staff learn to sacrifice personal gains or desires in order to benefit the school. This programme has the potential to solidify the true character of the school so that, Kom koop jou kos - daar sal altyd Coke en ‘n doughnut wees.

Op toere in ons vrye-tyd slaap baie van die spelers graag of daar is altyd ‘n kamer waar groepbesprekings aan die gang is! Hierdie jaar het ‘n nuwe ding bygekom en op al die toere is ons vrye yd gevul met “Play Station”- speletjies soos “Fifa” en “Call of duty”.
