Good day

SCHOOL PHOTO:

Orders close on the 29^th of February 2024.  No late orders will be taken.

BOTANICAL GARDENS – GRADE 10 LIFE SCIENCE LEARNERS:

Teacher Francis took the grade 10 Life Science learners on an outing to visit the Botanical Gardens which is also part of their practical assignment for this term.  They enjoyed it very much and also admired nature again from another perspective.  Thank you, Mrs. Francis Swart, for the opportunity.

JUNIOR LEADER CAMP:

The Junior leaders went on a leadership camp the past weekend.  They learned a lot and will be ready to be excellent leaders throughout the year.  Thank you to teacher Rina and Lynette for the camp arrangements and also the help and effort to make them successful leaders in life.

BEHAVIOUR:

In class learners need to show respect to the teacher and their fellow learners.  They need to obey the class and school rules at all times.  They must have all their books at school every day.  Homework must be done every day.  Bad behaviour disrupts the class and hamper the other learners and teachers to do their best, and this is not acceptable at all.  Such learners will be taken out of class and the parents will be contacted immediately.   

ILL LEARNERS:

If your child is really ill, please take him/her to the doctor and keep them at home if they are booked off.  Provide the school with a medical certificate when they attend school again.

It also happens that we need to phone a parent when a child gets ill at school.  Then the cell phone numbers we have on record does not exist.  If your cell number changed, please inform the school immediately via email.  It is in the best interest of the child and school that we always have the correct contacting details on file.

Please make use of the following email address:  info@cvc.africa

SOCIAL MEDIA:

What an evil platform has it become.  It shows explicit stuff and also shows different dangerous games learners and young adults are playing for the “fun”.  But it is not for “fun”!!!!!  It is dangerous games which creates bodily harm and even death in some cases.  We do ask that you speak to your child about the influence that SOCIAL MEDIA has on them.  Please check your child’s phone regularly to make sure they are not involved in some dangerous sites or situations.  We are very strict at school and will not allow any cell phone as per our policy. 

SCHOOL FEES:

January 2024 and February 2024 school fees had to be paid in full already.  If you haven’t done so yet, interest will be added to your account.  The new accounts/statements will be handed out on the 23^rd of February for March 2024.  Please make sure you pay the full amount outstanding as indicated on your account/statement.

If you do have a query about school fees or proof of payment, please make sure you send it to the correct email address:

Yours sincerely,
Mr. JS Diedericks
