Teubes Treats

 

We are so fortunate to be apart of the legacy of Tubby Teubes. His association with the St Joseph's Marist College Special Needs spans 26 years (and counting). His son Paul, our favourite uncle ;), continues to carry the torch of his parents history of community developement and upliftment. 

We love you Paul and not only because you treat us to a special outing every term.

We had a wondeful lunch hanging with  Paul at Spur and made some great memories.

Thank you again Paul and the Teubes Family.

The excitement is updating, the nerves are loading, our systems are about to reboot... only 3 more sleeps until the play. Can't wait to see you all there to see our stars in action...

Hier Kom die Bokke!

 

All these bokkies wish the Bokke all the best for their match!

Happy Birthday Teacher Clare!

 

Happy Birthday to our fearless leader and the captain of our SNU ship! All of us here in the unit wish you the best of days with many more to come. May God shower you with blessings and continue to help you thrive.

Mighty Walkers Assemble!

 

The big walk finally arrived and thank goodness for the nice weather that wasn't too hot nor too cold which made up for all the miserable weather of previous years. It was so fun seeing how excited the kids were when they saw us marshalling with our bibs and flags. It was especially fun when we ended up blocking a whole corner of the common to grab that special pic (photo to come). It was a great event with soccer, basketball, netball, concerts and performances and of course hearing that one of our learners won our Mystery Box!  

We won Champagnat!

 

The first of our Champagnat Award winners for the term have finally rolled out! These awards are earned for working hard, being helpful and being kind to those around us... Well done to these learners who exhibited many of these wonderful traits throughout the week. Keep it up!

It's that BIG time of the year...

 

It's the Big Walk on Saturday! Look out for your teachers along the common, we'll be the ones shouting and waving our flags for the intrepid walkers... Thank you for all the contributions so far to our mystery box hamper and looking forward to showing the rest of the school how awesome our parents are and that we are the best classes in the school!

Pajama Day an SMJC outreach initiative

Our wonderful school had an outreach initiative today. Every learner contributed a small fee and wore their PJs which went towards a large collection for the towards the Leave Your Print Campaign - which is to raise money to upgrade poor toilet facilities and water access in under-resourced schools across South Africa.

A big thanks to all who contributed, you have made a difference and looked cute to boot!

Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika...

 

Just like before every soccer game, we kicked off our day yesterday before our soccer drills with learning and singing our National Anthem. We were very impressed with how much the learners already knew!

Champagnat lives in us....

 

In the words of our school song, Marcellin Champagnat truly was a gift to the world and certainly to us as we try to follow his way and our Marist Values. The learners enjoyed their Champagnat day treats and the fun and games that came with it... Happy Champagnat Day!

🎵 Let's Get Quizzical.. 🎵

 

Trivia genius? Or just really good at guessing? 🤔

Come one, come all to SJMC's Quiz Night on the 19th! Everyone is welcome to join us for an evening of brain-teasing questions, random facts you'll never need again and plenty of laughs along the way. With a variety of categories on offer, there's something for everyone - whether you're a walking encyclopedia or simply there for moral support.

And because thinking is hungry work, 🍕 pizza will be available to order via the Kari App for any hungry hippos or simply just to avoid a night of having to cook.

Round up your friends, sharpen those thinking caps and prepare to test the limits of your knowledge. Bragging rights are up for grabs! 

"Let them eat 'cup' Cake...."

 

From Marie Antoinette's lips to our ears... The Junior Class got a rare treat in art yesterday. They got to decorate their own cupcakes and who said we can't have our cake and eat it too? 

P.S. It was so good one of our learners just had to phone a friend to tell them :)

🎵 Cause We Never Go Out of Style...🎵

 

Welcome to The SNU Hair Salon - we are now taking bookings for break times; with our senior stylist. Call 0800 SNU RAINY DAYS to complete your booking. 😃.. Anyone else love that feeling of your hair being played with? As you can see, one of our learners was almost asleep while his hair was being combed. So fascinating all the creative ideas our learners come up with to keep themselves busy when the weather keeps us inside.
