Monday saw a fun afternoon of performances from 10 talented musicians from the Prep and Senior Schools. Each pupil was picked randomly through the use of a spinning wheel, and when the needle landed on their name it was their time to shine!

  • Laat Die Wind my Neem (‘Let the wind take me’), an Afrikaans song sung and played by Nic W (U6).
