As a part of their Life Orientation curriculum, Union High School, Graaff-Reinet’s Grade 12s enjoyed various 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗘𝗥 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞 activities last week.
Representatives from tertiary institutions including Varsity College and CTU gave enlightening presentations during the day, followed by a group of successful Graaff-Reinet business people who addressed the them at a fun function in the Union.
It was fascinating to hear the stories of the ‘latticed’ manner in which each of these professionals (four of whom grew up in Graaff-Reinet), reached their career dreams. The common thread throughout the evening is that hard work, a never say die attitude and passion are all imperative for a happy career.
The matrics then shared a delicious meal and convivial conversation.
