Nice one Dione💪🏾

I am proud of you my daughter

Well done Dione!👏👏

It has been an exciting milestone for our Year 2 students as they visited the Junior Department in preparation for their transition to Year 3. This visit was an important step in helping them become familiar with their new learning environment, meet their future teachers and experience some of the exciting opportunities that await them. We are confident that our students will embrace this new chapter with enthusiasm, curiosity and confidence. The move from the Infants Department to the Junior Department is a significant stage in their educational journey, and we are committed to ensuring that the transition is both smooth and enjoyable.

We look forward to welcoming them as members of the Junior Department next year and wish
them every success as they continue to learn, grow and thrive.
