• Learners of The King’s School Discovery are sharing how they feel about going to grade 12:
“The idea of matriculating next year is quite overwhelming, as I am oblivious as to what is ahead of me. Overall though, I am excited about doing matric in 2024,” said Bogoshi Makola.
“Going to matric next year is one of the most exciting yet terrifying feelings I have ever experienced but I’m beyond excited to see what lies ahead for me,” added Danielle Graham.
“Heading into matric in 2024 is one of the most exciting but scary feelings one can feel. I am mentally and spiritually ready for the challenge ahead and I will always look to God in times of difficulties because I know with Him I can persevere and become the doctor I’ve always dreamed of becoming,” noted Keri Tachi.
“As I depart from grade 11 and enter matric, I find myself drowning in a pool of excitement but also a pool of fear. From grade one, the end goal was to matriculate, now that I am moments away from matric, reminiscing every event up until now I can’t help but wish time could slow down. Entering matric will probably be one of the biggest battles I will face because after that my high school career comes to an end, there will be no more ‘promoted to the next grade’, it stops at matric. Although I feel scared, I believe entering matric will be life-altering. Every challenge I have faced up until now has equipped me for what is to come, I look at matric as an opportunity to groom myself for the real world, to find myself, that is how I feel about matric,” stated Kayleigh van der Ross.
