Dear Moms and Dads,
We welcome back Paula after her few weeks off to help her family get through the illness and death of her dad. She appreciates having been given this time and is now ready to get on with the business of running this amazing little school.

STAFF TEAM BUILD
We had a staff team build on Saturday morning, starting with breakfast at the Blue Gecko in Main Road, Fish Hoek and then proceeding to run up and down the road finding different shops from clever clues. Thanks to Linda for organising this fun event for staff. You may have noticed the unusual frenzy in our sleepy village or you may have heard the noise of the teams arriving back at the Blue Gecko once they were finished!
Well done to all the teams and to Dee and Linda for an inspiring team build.

LAST THOUGHT:
Something funny from the Team Build :
One team looking for the vendor on a clue asked a man at the market if he was a vendor. He replied “No I am a Malawianâ€.
