On 19 September, Curro Aurora celebrated their new auditorium and other additions to their school property.
The school celebrated with stakeholders from the community, staff and learners at the school. Visitors were greeted by the tunes of the Senior Marimba Band on arrival, as well as smiles from the newly elected high school prefects.
The school boasts a new state of the art AV system, spacious stage and gallery which accommodated learners from Grade R to matric. Executive head of Curro Aurora JC Engelbrecht led the ceremony and explained that the school has used names of celestial bodies in the solar system to name the new additions. The new school hall has been named Galaxy to mark its vastness as well as the emergence of this new addition to the school which has catapulted the school to greater heights.
The school hall took 12 months to build, said Engelbrecht, and was not the only addition to the school. There is also a new staff room designated to the high school and a state of the art learner centre accessible to all learners fitted with a laser and 3D printer, tables and chairs for the learners to do their homework and bean bags for relaxation.
The Grade R learners opened up the assembly with a rendition of the national anthem and primary school learners performed hip-hop dancing, the school song and there was a speech from the head boy and girl. The high school concluded their ceremony with a show of their Blue Pride as the incoming prefects led the school in a spirited war cry.
The morning left visitors very impressed with the new additions to the school which they were able to tour before the ceremony began. The 2019/20 prefects led small groups of visitors who were able to view the new buildings.
