Parents and family of the new Grade 1 learners looked on proudly as they were placed at their desks in the classrooms.

In no time at all, everyone was busy. One Grade 1 class even proudly read the first page of a story to the photographer. It is hoped that these little people grow and learn, and stay in the education system for the next 12 years to develop into well-educated citizens of our country.
Throughout the classrooms, there was a buzz of happiness, with everyone indicating they were happy to be back at school. All the best to the learners, teachers and schools as a whole for a successful 2020.
