Access to the fun park will be R80 per learner, if paid before the day – to your class teacher; otherwise R100 per learner if bought on the day. There will be a host of fete type stalls, meals, music and a lot of fun to be had on the day.
EDUCATION IS SERIOUS
Embrace the concepts of praise and blame with regard to your child. Both are developmental.
