This morning we have the privilege of recognising a group of learners who have accepted one of the greatest responsibilities in school sport – ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ต๐ผ๐ป๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐น๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฟ ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ๐.
Each year, our first team captains are presented with their captain’s badges, ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ช๐ค๐ฉ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ฃ๐ญ๐ข๐ป๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด ๐ข๐ด ๐ข ๐ด๐บ๐ฎ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต, ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด๐ฉ๐ช๐ฑ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ด๐ฆ๐ณ๐ท๐ช๐ค๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ต๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ฆ๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ค๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ญ.
As we look ahead to Interschools, these captains will carry not only the hopes of their teams, but also the values of Union High School, Graaff-Reinet onto every field, court and turf where they compete.

While the ๐๐๐ถ๐บ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ด and ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ seasons have already concluded, we would also like to acknowledge the learners who fulfilled these important leadership roles earlier in the year.
Yaaseen Kazi served as Cricket Captain, while Mecoli Vorster led the swimming team with distinction.
๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป must be made of Mecoli’s willingness to go above and beyond, assisting staff throughout the season with administration and the many arrangements required behind the scenes. Her dependable support and servant-hearted leadership did not go unnoticed.
