Neatness We need the support of
ALL parents to ensure
the neatness of our
learners at ALL times.
On Friday, 1 March
there will be a general
NEATNESS INSPECTION of all learners
including BOOK BAGS.
The major areas of concern at the moment
are: *girls' hair that is not tied up and
hanging in their faces; *length of boys'
hair and boys that are coming to school
unshaved; *learners using earphones to
and from school and *incorrect book
bags being used. We really appeal to
parents to assist us to ensure that the
image of the school remains top priority.
