“We have seen these little girls blossom into remarkable young women who leave school to achieve amazing things,” said the school’s marketing and communications administrator, Sarah Bartholomew.
According to Bartholomew, this year, nine out of its top 10 matriculants who achieved a year mark of over 85%, began their love of learning in the Grade R phase.
