The Intermediate Phase held a mini Expo on 6 November. After a month of hard work and a bit of a crash course on how to compile a project, they presented their work. Mr du Toit, Dr Stott, Miss Steyn and Mrs Gouws adjudicated the projects. After two hours of interviewing and moderating, learners whose projects merited awards were given a first, second or third class.
It was a cool, misty day as we rumbled into Greytown on 29 October to visit two commercial banks, ABSA and Standard. The learners were given a tour around the banks during which they were free to ask questions. They were required to complete a questionnaire on each bank and compare the information they had collected.
The Foundation and Intermediate Phase learners were treated to a wonderful display of doggy tricks at the Incredible Dog Show held at Hermannsburg Deutsche Schule on 8 June. Even though the weather was very cold, the dogs performed brilliantly. Lloyd Bristow, the owner and trainer of the four world-class performing dogs, explained the very special relationship that he has with his dogs. He taught the learners how to look after dogs and fulfill their needs. The star of the show, however, was the little poodle ‘Vibe' and he certainly lived up to his name. Lloyd Bristow is planning to travel to Belgium with Vibe later in the year. Check out his webpage at www.dogzcool.com.
