Issue 5 – September/October 2019

               The King’s Chronicle
We are pleased to announce that the building of our swimming
     pool and change rooms is on track and going well!
Estimated time of completion will be the first quarter of 2020.

     A section of the top field has been cordoned off
                 for building to take place.
Please note that no learners will be permitted to access the
        building site while the project is underway.

As this area of the school will be a construction site, we ask that
      you bear with us through this process of expansion.
     This wonderful addition to our school will be completed
                       before you know it!

Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer
and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And
 the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard
           your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Culture Week

                Culture Week is always a highlight for our school.
 Every day of the week had a different theme which allowed us to experience and
      celebrate the various beautiful cultures that our country has to offer.

 The High School ended off their week with a First Additional Language (FAL) day
where we had a visit from renowned South African artist Dozi, who entertained us in
                            both Afrikaans and IsiZulu!

Pre-Primary
         Mini Athletics
         Everyone agreed that this year’s Pre-
         Primary Mini Athletics was full of colour
         and smiles. The children thoroughly enjoy
         being outdoors and flexing their muscles!
         The Grade R learners showed their future
         potential in the high jump, long jump and
         turbo javelin events while the younger
         groups had a lot of fun doing novelty
         races.

         A firm favourite for the children is watching
         their parents throw caution to the wind as
         they participate in the parents’ sprints.

         This year we had a Tour de France theme
         with cyclists starting the day in an exciting
         bike race. South Africa was the stage
         winner so we proudly celebrated as we
         sang our national anthem and waved our
         flags in victory!

         Thank you to all the parents who took time
         off from work to come and enjoy the day
         with us. We appreciate your support!

New King’s kids on the block
 We are pleased to welcome our youngest members to the King’s family.

                 Ms Sinah Ntuli welcomed
                 a daughter Sinokuhle and
                 Ms Lyndi Liebenberg was
                 blessed with a son, called
                         Theodore.
                 We pray the Lord's richest
                  blessings over your little
                           ones.

                                        Our Pre-Primary girls were gifted
                                        with the most beautiful African
                                        dolls to play with. How amazing
                                        that we can celebrate culture in
                                        so many different ways.
A massive congratulations to Liam
                                 Devenish who was invited to the 2019
                                 Annual Prioritisation Workshop on Global

                                 November. His attendance will be sponsored
                                 by the NIHR Global Health Research Unit on
                                 Global Surgery based at the University of
