️ CHILD PROTECTION WEEK – AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
On Tuesday, 3 June 2025, during our Intersen Phase Assembly, learners were engaged in a powerful discussion focused on current societal dangers affecting children.
Topics covered included:
-
Substance abuse (e.g. drugs, “airpops”)
-
Use of counterfeit money
-
Gang involvement and imitation behavior
-
Human trafficking and bullying
We emphasize that parental monitoring of children’s whereabouts and activities plays a critical role in keeping them safe from these dangers. Let’s continue working together to protect our children.
DARE TO DREAM PROJECT
Our Grade 7 class teacher, Mr. C. de Waal, continues to inspire learners through the Dare to Dream Project – a developmental programme held on Friday afternoons.
Both current and former learners actively participate. This year, we’re proud to see many alumni returning to volunteer, assisting with school projects and mentoring younger students.
Despite the challenges in their communities, these learners demonstrate resilience, purpose, and positivity. We are immensely proud of their commitment and growth. Continued mentorship is key to helping them stay focused and discover their potential.
BALLROOM DANCING
Delta Primary has a proud tradition of producing talented ballroom dancers who have competed at both Provincial and National levels.
Ms. Maxine Sauls, who leads the programme, invites interested learners to join:
-
Mondays | 15:30–16:30
No prior experience needed—just enthusiasm and commitment!
SOFTBALL UPDATE
We are excited to announce the official launch of Delta Softball, now introduced across all grades!
Currently in its early stages, learners are being taught rounders as a foundation. This will help them understand the rules and techniques of softball, setting the stage for a strong, skilled team in the near future.
Thought for the Day
“A positive attitude doesn’t mean ignoring life’s challenges—it means facing them with hope, confidence, and the belief that better days are ahead.”
