In a world that often feels hurried and impersonal, this gesture from the Graaff-Reinet Dutch Reformed Church stands out as an example of the community spirit and kindness that makes our town such a wonderful place to live.
To the congregation of NG Graaff-Reinet, your thoughtful initiative has made a significant impact. The NSC examinations can be a source of stress and anxiety for many young learners – ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ด๐ช๐ต๐บ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ค๐ฐ๐จ๐ฏ๐ช๐ด๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ช๐ง๐ต ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ณ๐ช๐ค๐ด ๐ด๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ด ๐ท๐ฐ๐ญ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ข๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฏ๐ถ๐ณ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ถ๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ช๐ต๐บ.

In addition to her academic excellence, Erin also excelled in the cultural sphere, earning recognition as a ๐ด๐ถ๐ณ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ and dedicated contributor to school life. Her additional awards included:

It is with deep sadness that the Union community bids farewell to one of its most loyal and beloved stalwarts, ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ – ๐ฑ๐ช๐ค๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐๐ด ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ ๐๐ธ๐ข๐ณ๐ต ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐๐ณ๐ด ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ต๐ช๐ฆ ๐๐ถ๐ญ๐ญ๐ช๐ท๐ข๐ฏ – who passed away this past weekend after a short illness.
Ms Fourieโs journey with Union began in 1996, when she joined Arthur Kingwill House as matron.
In 2000, she moved to Herby Arnott House, where her warmth and quiet strength touched countless lives. When the hostels later amalgamated, she returned to Arthur Kingwill House, where she continued to serve with unwavering dedication until her retirement in 2024.
Those who worked alongside Ms Fourie describe her as the embodiment of loyalty, hard work and trustworthiness.
She was someone who never watched the clock – ๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฎ ๐ต๐ฒ๐น๐ฝ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ต๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ, ๐ป๐ผ ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ธ. Whether it was preparing for hostel suppers, assisting at marking centres, supporting sport festivals or catering for reunions, Ms Fourie gave her all, with a smile and a steadfast spirit.

Her strong yet gentle leadership style fostered harmony among staff and she shared an especially close bond with the kitchen team, with whom she spent countless busy evenings ensuring everything ran smoothly.
Her colleague and dear friend, Mrs Martie Sullivan, who worked alongside her for 25 years in the Union Schoolsโ boarding houses, shared heartfelt words: โ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ช๐ข๐ข๐ฏ ๐ธ๐ข๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ด๐ต ๐ญ๐ฐ๐บ๐ข๐ญ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ง๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ฏ๐บ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ด๐ฌ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ. ๐๐ต ๐ธ๐ข๐ด ๐ด๐ถ๐ค๐ฉ ๐ข ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ช๐ท๐ช๐ญ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ.โ
Ms Fourieโs passing leaves a profound void in the Union family, but her legacy of service, strength and kindness will live on in the many lives she touched. ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฎ๐๐ – not only for her years of dedicated service, but for the heart and humanity she brought to all she did.

Weโd like to wish our Grade 12s everything of the very best for the weeks ahead.
It is no secret that the time is drawing near for the Union Schools to bid farewell to two of its most cherished figures – ๐ ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐๐ถ๐น๐น.
Their presence has become woven into the very fabric of Unionโs story – a story marked by care, steadfastness and a quiet, enduring passion for the school and all it represents.

On Friday evening, 17 October, Union High School hosted its annual ๐ฆ๐๐ก๐๐ข๐ฅ ๐ฃ๐ฅ๐๐ญ๐๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐ ๐ข๐ก๐ฌ – a highlight on the school calendar celebrating the remarkable achievements of our senior learners.
๐ช๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐ as they take on this exciting responsibility – guiding and inspiring their peers while upholding the values of Union High School.
Friday, 17 October 2025, will long be remembered as a day filled with emotion, reflection and pride as Union High School bid farewell to the Class of 2025 during a heartfelt ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ง๐ข๐ฅ๐ฌ service held in the school hall.
After the singing of the School Hymn, the ceremony opened with a meaningful Bible reading and prayer delivered by Deputy Head Boy, ๐ง๐ฟ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐๐น๐น๐ฒ๐บ๐ฎ๐ป, and Deputy Head Girl, ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฎ ๐ก๐ฒ๐ถ๐น๐น, setting a reverent tone for what was to follow.
Headmaster Mr William Pringle then addressed the gathering, delivering words that resonated deeply with both the learners and parents – ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐น๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐จ๐ป๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐๐ถ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ and of the lifelong connections they will always share with their alma mater.
This was followed by the Head Prefectsโ Address, in which Head Boy ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ธ๐ถ๐ฟ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ and Head Girl ๐๐ฎ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐ต ๐ฆ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ reflected with warmth and sincerity on their journey through the school – a journey marked by laughter, challenges, growth and unbreakable friendships.

Adding to the emotional atmosphere, the matrics performed a moving rendition of โ๐ ๐๐ช๐ท๐ฆ๐ฅโ by One Republic, a song choice that beautifully summed up their message – ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ฅ ๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ญ๐บ ๐ญ๐ช๐ท๐ฆ๐ฅ, ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ด๐ค๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ญ ๐บ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ด.
As the slideshow of memories played, capturing moments from their Grade 12 year, there was laughter, nostalgia and quiet tears – a vivid reminder of how quickly time passes and how much these young men and women have grown.
Finally, as the School Song echoed through the hall, the Class of 2025 stood together one last time as Union learners – united in spirit and tradition.
Then came the moment that always stirs the heart: ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐ข๐๐. One after the other, they made their way from the hall, pausing at the Centenary Bell – a beloved symbol of Unionโs enduring legacy.

In that moment, surrounded by proud parents, staff and friends, the Class of 2025 stepped into the next chapter of their lives – ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ท๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ซ๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐ข ๐ด๐ค๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ญ, ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ต ๐ข ๐ง๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ญ๐บ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ข ๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ธ๐ช๐ญ๐ญ ๐ข๐ญ๐ธ๐ข๐บ๐ด ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฎ ๐ฃ๐ข๐ค๐ฌ.

As we celebrated ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ง๐ข๐ฅ๐ฌ, we could hardly believe how many of our very own staff members were bidding farewell to their own children in the Class of 2025!
