Stepping into the past with futuristic tools!
In History, the Grade 7s have been learning about the life and times of William Shakespeare. In their combined IT and Library Science lessons, Mr Jansen van Vuuren and Ms Elk selected some key experiences for the girls to explore using the VR headsets. From a brief sojourn in Tudor England to a tour of Shakepseare’s Globe, the girls engaged enthusiastically with these futuristic tools.

Dimalachite camp
The Grade 7 girls had four days to explore their own capabilities and to push themselves out of their comfort zone at their camp. They showed themselves to be excellent chefs when they produced delicious potjiekos; they navigated the Vaal River and the rapids like champion paddlers; they looked out for each other and encouraged each other during the survival challenges, showing true team spirit. They made their teachers very proud.
