The Junior Department extends its ๐ง๐๐๐ก๐๐ฆ to all the parents who volunteered to help on the day. It is simply not possible to host an event such as this without their help.
There was also a large number of Grade 7 learners assisting at the various events on the day, their contribution to the success of the day has not gone unnoticed.
