Olivia Nel, Grade 10, qualifies for the Senior Commonwealth Games

Five of our girls, Olivia Nel (Grade 10), Georgia Nel (Grade 10), Hanim Abrahams (Grade 10), Jeanre Buys (Grade 12) and Hannah Pearce (Grade 9), competed in the Senior Commonwealth Games trials held in Durban just before Christmas.

Olivia was rewarded with a 3rd place finish in the Women’s 50m Freestyle event, and was the only Western Cape school girl to qualify for the Commonwealth Games! Considering she is only 15 years of age, this is an amazing achievement, especially in the sprint event, which is highly competitive!

Congratulations to all three girls!

School Song

We are assembled here in love,
We are united, we care for one another.
The greatest lesson of all is the one
That teaches us to live together, together.

Refrain:
Everyone’s a spark and in the night
Together we make a light, a fire burning bright
Ad Dei Gloriam; Inkosi mayibongwe:
To the glory of our God: this is what we believe.

In times of trouble we support
Our fellows; we are taught to be there for our friends.
And all around us, there will be
That special unity, that binds us all together.

If we come back after many years,
We will think fondly of the things that we remember,
And the friends that we made then,
These will be friends forever, forever.

By Thandi Siebert, Head Girl 1993
