At a special function held in the Atrium last night, Heads of the Senior and Preparatory Schools, Stuart West and Lin Heidmann, thanked Council members, parents on various committees, neighbours and invited guests for all their support and commitment this year.
Thank you again to everyone who supports, invests in and commits to Herschel in any way – big or small; we are truly grateful.
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
