Grade10's learning about Blogs

BLOGGING AND LEARNING

Today the Grade 10 E 2's are learning about blogging. It is so exiting.
Pity we don't have a photo ready.

GESELLIGE Brrrrrr. brrrrrr. Landskaphernuwing op sy beste

Soms, onverwags, gebeur dinge wat mens met baie dankbaarheid vul. Die afgelope drie dae al is daar 'n gebrom om en naby ons skool. Die pragtige bome voor ons skool word gesnoei en laat die gebou toe om die son in te lok voor "Winter" met sy grys jas alles verander. Dan staan mens met jou kamera en deel dit met almal. Dankie aan Stad Kaapstad en sy span wat die werk met soveel energie en deeglikheid gedoen het.

17 February 2015 - Grade 8 Blazer Assembly.

Fully fledged members of Goodwood College

One of the hottest days this summer and it was all smiles from very proud Grade 8 learners, parents and teachers. What a privilege for all these young learners to become a part of our proud school. Mrs Africa fitted their blazers and you could see them enjoy the moment.

WELCOME TO OUR SCHOOL!

PROUD AND SMILING!

 

VALENTINE'S CELEBRATION - GRADE 12 INITIATIVE

Grade 12's Valentine's show

Valentine's day could only be celebrated on Monday 16/02/2015 and we were very surprised by the show that the matrics put together. A day to remember. A word of thanks to all the participants in the modelling show. Me Visser and her team was phenomenal, thank you.

Thank you all for not being "camera shy". You looked so pretty!

GRADE 12 - G4 ATHLETICS AND MORE

Read the posts of G4 athletics and see what the "buzz" is all about. Dankie aan ons matrieks wat so 'n groot GEES gebring het. Ons was mal oor julle betrokkenheid. You (in the picture) shows a lot of joy and participation. We are proud of each and everyone. 

13 February 2014, a day to remember.

ATHLETES ARE WINNERS!

The joy of participation.

To all our athletes. You were winners on this day. You conquered your spare time to practise and become nearly perfect on this day. We will support your effort and cherish your photos for years to come. You made us proud and added value to our school. THANK YOU.

PROUDLY GC PRODUCTS!

G4 ATHLETICS - FRIDAY 13 FEBRUARY 2015

"Sport is in intergrale deel van ons opvoedingstaak en daarom is interskole-atletiek die eerste hoogtepunt van die jaar waarna ons almal uitsien."

- TI Linderts 2015 (JG Meiring)

What a wonderful day.

In the photo-compilation above you will notice the excitement and joy we had at the UWC athletics track. We thank the grounds coordinator and staff for the facilities. Me Neethling is featured in the top left and gazes upon a sight she may miss. Me Cox was faster than any athlete of our school - this teacher is truly remarkable and such a "gem". Me Lawrence in the bottom corner of the photo is a "crowd magnate" and always projects happiness! We were also privileged to have our representative "crowd of matric learners" as you can see in the left bottom of this picture.
What a fantastic day! Irreplaceable moments.

GOODWOOD 4 ATHLETICS

JG. MEIRING - HOST OF G4 ATHLETICS 2015

GOODWOOD COLLEGE stands humble to the principal and staff of JG Meiring for hosting our annual athletics meeting. What a fantastic day of sportsmanship and coordination of events "on and off" the track. We need to mention the fantastic and powerful message of the host school's message page of the pamphlet (picture shown below)

Principal Linderts addressed the athletes, learners and staff of the 4 schools with a good welcoming message.

ONLY THE HIGHLIGHTS.

"High four" to the principals: Mr Linderts, Me Africa, Mr Odendaal and Mr Marchand. (G4 principals - we salute your effort to keep sport alive!)

Mr Linderts mentioned the following: "The universal language of sport speaks to the hearts of millions of South Africans. From humble beginnings future stars are discovered on the playing fields of schools where learners engage in the ultimate language of "sport".

He mentioned our beloved Mr Mandela's take on union through sport with the following extract: "Sport has the power to change the world. Sport can create hope, where there was once despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination".

"Laat die dag genotvol wees en mag sport en kameraderie die wenners wees".

DANKIE MNR LINDERTS VIR U INSPIRASIE EN TOEWYDING MET DIE AANBIED VAN ONS G4 INTERSKOLE ATLETIEK. GOODWOOD KOLLEGE WAS BEINDRUK!

2015 FIRST DAY OF GRADE 12 @ GOODWOOD COLLEGE

First day of being a "senior" @ Goodwood College.


Grade 12 in 2015. We will rock the world as you know it! 100% pass-rate!

FIRST DUEL-ASSEMBLY. WE WELCOME OUR NEW G8 INTAKE OF 2015/ EERSTE TANDEM-BYEENKOMS VAN 2015

"2015 - First assembly - GET phase"

'n Hart het net soveel "kamers" om een mens aan die lewe te hou. 'n Skool het net soveel plek om almal in een saalbyeenkoms te kan huisves".

We had to accommodate our learners in two sessions. After we assembled outside, the GET phase were organised into their grade sections and directly after that, we had to accommodate the FET phase to be divided into their respective grade sections. A "marathon" assembly session started the new year. (Do the math: one session = 50 min) WOW.

2015 Assembly. We were so proud to welcome our learners.

The Grade 8 and 9 assembly!



GRADE 8 IS ALL ABOUT "FINDING OUR WAY"

The larger the island of knowledge, the longer the shoreline of wonder.  ~Ralph W. Sockman

The Grade 8's had to line up to be allocated to their respective register classes. Cape Town's weather allowed them to have a fresh start to a new journey. "What a blessed day!"

 

Under the watchful eye of Me Steyn, Me Grobler and Me Williams, learners were allocated class sections and a feeling of well being.

2015 FIRST DAY OF A 5 YEAR JOURNEY!

21 January 2015 marks the 5 year "journey"!

"Although we had a information session last year, an excursion of the school and surrounds yesterday, we were waiting in anticipation today. If by chance technology could record our heartbeats, it would sound like a "million drums".



At the front gate. We are entering a new chapter. Our dedicated Grade Head: Me Steyn and her team. Grade 8's of 2015

2014 MATRICS CELEBRATE!

Matric results - Class of 2014

We are truly proud of our 2014 Grade 12's. The diligent leadership of their Grade Head, Me Alicia Esau and the dedication of the teaching staff. We salute each and everyone. Thank you. A pass rate of 98,7% boasts the best in our circuit 5!

In the photo compilation you will notice our top 3 candidates. Tiffany Lewis, Adri Davis and Beauretha Seagren. It is with pride that the principal Me Africa and the deputy, Mr Barkhuizen handed the results to our learners.
