WHITAKER FOUNDATION
The Whitaker Peace and Development Initiative (WPDI) is a non-governmental organisation with an international scope and reach, founded by Forest Whitaker in 2012. WPDI develops an array of peacebuilding programs, initiatives, and campaigns to foster peace and reconciliation in disadvantaged and fragile communities in the different regions of the world. The organisation has partnered with Delta Primary with the intention to take our prefects through a conflict resolution programme. The envisioned goal is a learner who is able to leverage off the skills learnt to improve their decision making ability.
GRADE 6 OUTING TO THE AQUARIUM
Our learners thoroughly enjoyed themselves at the aquarium. We have received a good review as our boys and girls were good ambassadors for Delta Primary.
SUPPORTING REGULAR LEARNER ATTENDANCE
I take this opportunity to highlight the urgent need to ensure that all our learners are at school on a daily basis. Our learners can ill-afford to miss a single day and be tardy when it comes to school attendance. In this regard all parents must cause their children to make their way to school and be prepared to get stuck into their academic curriculum. Term 2 is a term with many planned days of school closure to accommodate cultural as well as social downtime. Lets not add extra days in the pursuit of relaxation at the expense of regular school attendance.
SCHOOL UNIFORM
The school uniform remains the pride of the school. It creates a sense of belonging and gives us a sense of pride. I wish to encourage all our parents to purchase the official uniform of the school at our school or place an order online via the schools online store. Uniforms may also be purchased from Yunisha Fashions in Grassy Park. The school secretary may be contacted for enquiries related to the school uniform. ONLY THE OFFICIAL SCHOOL DRESS AND TRACKSUIT shall be acknowledged as proper uniform. Past variations of the school uniform will unfortunately not be regarded as acceptable as this creates a disparate implementation of the affordable uniform we have implemented over several years. Based on the data and pricing Delta Primary`s uniform is still the most affordable across schools in our area. Parents must refer to the school code of conduct to verify that the uniform is correct for the appropriate season.
