The Grade 1s are currently learning about water, with the added bonus of performing numerous experiments in the classroom. On Friday, their teacher nicked a few plates from the staff room and the grade 1s had fun creating their own floating creations with whiteboard markers and water. A great way to end off a busy week.

Congratulations, Mialaxmi! We are delighted to share that Mialaxmi Govender, a Grade 3 learner at Gonubie Primary, was one of the winners of a recent colouring-in competition. The competition, hosted by the Yeyethu Project in partnership with Pam Golding, Gonubie, celebrated the beautiful artwork of our young artists. The winners received their prizes at the reservoir in Main Rd, where Nathan Sanan was busy painting a mural of the very same dassie they had coloured in! Even more excitingly, Nathan gave the children the opportunity to help him paint a section of the mural - an unforgettable experience! As part of their prizes, each winner also received a framed copy of their own artwork. Well done, Mialaxmi, and a huge congratulations to all the other winners! We are so proud of our talented young artists and grateful to everyone involved for creating such a special and memorable opportunity for our children.
