Girls' Prep Celebrates Milestones: Counting Back and Dreaming Forward
We often celebrate beginnings and endings, but this event highlighted the importance of acknowledging the middle ground. The Grade 5s took time to reflect on their experiences at Girls' Prep and school, recognising their halfway point – a truly special milestone.
Fifi Mugadza, the Girls' College Head Girl, delivered a motivational speech, encouraging the girls to appreciate the present while setting their sights on future goals. Each student received a heartfelt letter from their parents, adding a personal touch to the celebration. Reading these letters in the presence of such an important guest created a cherished memory for the girls.
We extend our gratitude to Mrs. Carol Thomas, who joined us from the Junior Prep, and to the dedicated class representatives who played a vital role in making this event a success.
The following day, the Grade 5s embarked on a thrilling field trip to Melville Koppies, shifting gears from introspection to exploration. This exciting outing focused on learning about the First African Farmers. Our students discovered how these resourceful people lived off the land and used its resources with respect.
One fascinating discovery was the use of a specific tree for teeth brushing. This tree, it turns out, contains a natural plaque-fighting chemical! Through their exploration, the girls learned about the numerous medicinal and practical uses of various plants.
The outdoor adventure was a resounding success, and many students are eager to share their newfound knowledge by taking their families on a hike to Melville Koppies one sunny Sunday.
