FOUNDATION PHASE SPORTS DAY 2025 – REFLECTION

Our grade R-3  learners were simply awesome on Saturday the 22 February 2025. We say thank you to the parents who came out in their numbers to support the little ones.

CLIVE JACOBS – INTERVENTION PROGRAMME

Mr Clive Jacobs, a community activist and mediating officer  has partnered with Delta Primary School as part of a boy-child intervention program. We have witnessed with regret how so many of the boys at our school plummet under the societal pressures of gangsterism, drug abuse and general bad life choices. Mr. Clive Jacobs has seen the need and has volunteered his time to enrol and gather some of these wayward boys in an attempt to put them through a program, so as to assist the boys to make better life choices.

WAVES FOR CHANGE

The waves for change is a well known intervention program focused on boys. This year the program has come to Delta Primary School. The program aims to change the mindset of the boy-child who has experienced trauma and disappointment in their lives. The backdrop of Muizenberg is the space the NGO uses to address the challenges these children have experienced.

WP COLOURS

Our very own Mia Japhta has attained WP colours in Athletics. She competed at Greenpoint Stadium on 27 February 2025. Mia`s family and the school is extremely proud of her achievement and wish her well on this journey of sports excellence.

EFT AND FINANCE RELATED MATTERS

Dear parents, the cost of handling physical monies has increased exponentially over the past number of years. The school has always been very cognisant of the reality of our community and how parents interact in terms of financial transactions at school. We are recommending where possible that our parents move towards the use of EFT payments directly into the school account and then to produce the proof of payment to the teacher or the school secretary. It is very important that we use the child’s name as the reference on the POP.

Keep in mind that the school can only confirm digital payments after the money is reflected in the school account. IMMEDIATE PAYMENTS FROM ACCOUNTS CAN OFFSET THE WAITING PERIOD. EFT payments can be made for any of the following transactions

  1. Collecting lists
  2. School uniform
  3. Class outings

It would certainly not be cost effective to complete an EFT for civvies day as it is simply impractical unless it is for multiple learners attending the school. PLEASE GIVE THIS RECOMMENDATION SOME SERIOUS CONSIDERATION.
