Michael Mount Waldorf School’s Class of 2016 celebrated yet another year of a 100 per cent matric rate.
A total of 29 pupils wrote their IEB national senior certificate and, due to their hard work and support from dedicated teachers and committed parents, last year’s matric class is ready for life beyond the school gates.
According to the Bryanston school, their views on education are far greater than just imparting academic knowledge and, as such, the school hesitates to categorise children or only applaud those who achieve academically. “We aim to help every pupil to develop into a well-rounded, creative and independent thinker. We, as a school, have never boasted large numbers of distinctions, but neither has it had any matric failures,” said school management.
However, four pupils deserve special mention:
Nathan Jones achieved seven distinctions in English, geography, life sciences, life orientation, mathematics, physical science and Zulu. He was placed in the IEB top 1 per cent for English and geography and in the IEB top 5 per cent based on aggregate
- Stephanie Cookson achieved six distinctions in Afrikaans, drama, English, geography, history and maths literacy
- Michelle Gill achieved six distinctions in Afrikaans, life sciences, English, geography, life orientation and maths
- Sasha McGhee achieved four distinctions in drama, English, geography and maths literacy.
The school would like to congratulate the Class of 2016 and they look forward to the impact the school leavers will have on the world in years to come.
