Welcome Back Zoë & Brett

We couldn’t have been more thrilled to welcome Grade 7 learners Zoë Mills and Brett Kenmuir back to school today!

Zoë and Brett spent the past term at the Salisbury Cathedral School in the UK as part of the two schools’ annual exchange programme and from all accounts, it has been an incredible term for them!

U/13A Hockey Team Attends Coaching Tournament

𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 to Union High School, Graaff-Reinet’s u/13A hockey team on their successful participation in the Elsie Coetzer Hockey School (ECHS) coaching tournament held in Bloemfontein from 14 to 16 July.

𝘖𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘥𝘢𝘺𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭𝘴 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘵𝘰𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘪𝘹 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴.

The team triumphed over Pretoria’s Anton van Wouw’s u/12A side with an impressive 5-0 victory in their first match.

Their next match against Schweizer-Reneke (which they lost 1-7), may not have ended in their favour, but their resilience and never-give-up attitude for the rest of the tournament were truly commendable and resulted in them securing victories in all of their remaining matches.

They triumphed over Oranje Primary School’s u/12A’s with a hard-fought 1-0 win, showcasing their ability to excel under pressure. The girls continued to dominate the field, securing a convincing 4-0 victory against ECHS JD, a 2-0 win against Oranje Primary School’s u/13B’s, and another well-deserved 4-0 victory against Lumiere Primary School.

The girls also enjoyed several coaching sessions conducted by the ECHS coaches throughout the weekend, which provided valuable insights, correct technique, and personalized feedback, helping players refine their skills and improve their overall game.
