Every year parents need to cough up a little bit more for uniforms, stationery and school fees.While prominence is typically given to high school learners and children starting foundational phases, professionals also use this time to enhance their skills through further education and training.

READ IN FULL | School statement on death of Parktown Boys' High pupilParktown Boys' High School issued a statement on Friday evening about the death of a grade 8 pupil during a school orientation camp. Someone definitely knows what happened here. There’s no way not even one person saw this boy or what happened to him. They were there as a group. My concern is with the venue that hosted the team building. Were the boys not wearing life jackets? Some of these places don’t have adequate safety equipment and they don’t say no to money. The continue to host even if they don’t have the capacity. Must be investigated. you spelt the deceased’s name wrong in the article. Real quality from South Africa’s fastest declining news paper.
