WHAT MUST I STUDY FOR EXAMS
Grade 4 – 7 children all received lists of what to study for each subject today. If your child
has not started revising and studying for exams yet, they must start today. The exam dates
are on the previous page as well as on the term planner.
CONSTRUCTION WORKS – REHABILITATION OF HOUT BAY MAIN ROAD
Transport for Cape Town, the City of Cape Town’s transport authority, will be commencing
with road works along Hout Bay Road, between the Victoria Road and Princess Street traffic
circles.
The road works are planned to start on Monday 25 May 2015 and continue for a period of
approximately 5 months in two phases. This will allow for the much needed rehabilitation of
the road surface, road widening and improvement of the line of sight at the bend south of
Payne Road.
Phase 1: Work will commence on the section between Payne Road and Scott Road. Traffic in
a north bound direction will not be affected. There will be local access only in a southbound
direction from the Victoria Road traffic circle until Payne Road.
Phase 2: Work will continue between Payne Road and Victoria Road traffic circle. Traffic in a
north bound direction will not be affected. There will be north and south access between
the entrance to Berg and Dal and Princess Street.
For more information contact the TIC on 0800 65 64 63 or follow TCT on Twitter

Children may have to leave home a few minutes earlier in the mornings to get to school on
time.
POPCORN AND PILLOWS
The movie on Saturday 30 May 2015 is Big Hero 6. Come along and join your friends for an
afternoon of fun. Tickets are R25 and this includes the movie, popcorn and juice. Bring some
pillows or cushions to sit on and get warm and comfortable on a cold winter’s day. Also try
and bring your own cup as we aim to make this a “zero waste event.” We look forward to
seeing lots of children there.
GRADE 4 SUGAR FRIDAY
Grade 4 children will be selling sweet treats at break time tomorrow. Bring some pocket
money if you want to spoil yourself.
LOST PROPERTY AND SECOND HAND SHOP
This shop is open on a Monday morning from 7:15 – 8:00 and a Friday afternoon from 13:00
– 13:45 Please come along and look for lost and misplaced items. There is a charge for lost
property (R2 for marked items and R5 for unmarked items)
PLANET WARRIORS REQUEST FOR T-SHIRTS
Our Planet Warriors need old T – shirts (any size and colour) for their eco – fashion project.
If you have any old T – shirts to donate, please send them to Mrs Birch in the library.
KNIT IN
There are only 2 weeks to go and we hope you have been busy knitting squares at home. All
you need is some double knit wool, size 4 – 5 mm knitting needles and some enthusiasm.
Cast on 30 stitches, knit until you have a square and then bring it to your class teacher. On
Friday afternoon, 5 June from 13:30 – 15:30 we will all be knitting together in the hall so
remember to invite moms, aunts, grannies and friends who can knit. Hope to see you there.
SPORTS TUCK SHOP
We have a fantastic team of parents who work in our sports tuck shop which is becoming
more and more popular at sports events. Our tuck shop needs the following things to run
more smoothly and efficiently:
Drying up cloths
Washing cloths
Chopping boards
Knives – for cutting and spreading
Egg lifters
Scissors
Plastic bowls
Plastic platters
Trays
If you would like to donate any of these items, please drop them off at the front office. You
could even use this as an excuse to buy yourself some new things and give us the used ones!
SPORT
Please note that we expect all children to play one winter sport and to attend practices. No
practice = no match. If a child is unable to attend a practice they are to excuse themselves
from the practice and or match. No kit = no match. All children playing in a match are to
have the correct school sports kit or they will NOT be allowed to play.
HOCKEY
The U12 hockey girls played in The Grove Hockey tournament last Friday. It was a
challenging afternoon of hockey and the girls had fun. The girls played really well and learnt
a lot from the tournament. Thank you to Ms Bursey and Ms Joubert for taking them to the
tournament and to all the parents who lifted and supported the girls.
SOCCER
The Girls soccer team played against Highlands last Friday. This was a good game and
Kronendal managed to clinch the win 3- 0. Well done to the girls.
RUGBY
The rugby boys played their first rugby fixture last Friday evening against Primrose Rugby
Club. Despite losing their games, the boys did us proud by playing well and being good
sportsmen.
Thank you to the Tuck Shop Mum’s for once again giving up your time for the school. To all
the parents who came down to support – thank you, it was great having you here.
We are in desperate need of rugby players. For some reason we do not have enough U9 and
U10/11 players. Please can you ensure that your son attends practice if he has chosen to
play rugby.
FIXTURES FOR NEXT WEEK
We have 5 away matches on Thursday, we will require lifts for the U9 Soccer and the
Hockey girls please. IF you can assist please email me: [email protected]
