From the Office

Dear Parents and Learners

We hope to see many friends and family at our Open Day tomorrow.

Next week all our learners will be in examination mode and we wish them well. Please remember that learners are required to adhere to normal dress and grooming regulations throughout the exam period. Regulation knee blankets may be purchased from the IC reception. These are very useful during the exam period when learners are remaining seated for extended periods of time.

CONDOLENCES

Our condolences to Liam Hine (Grade 7) whose mother sadly passed away last week. She was laid to rest today. May her soul Rest in Peace. We wish the Hine family strength through this difficult time.

Thank you for supporting Reach for a Dream

Parklands College Preparatory Faculty

presents DreamWorks

Madagascar

A Musical Adventure JR.

DreamWorks Madagascar – A Musical Adventure JR. features original music and lyrics by George Noriega and Joel Someillan, and book by Kevin Del Aguila.

As the show opens, we learn that Marty the zebra may be celebrating his tenth birthday at the Central Park Zoo with his friends Alex the lion, Gloria the hippo, and Melman the giraffe, yet he longs to experience life outside of the zoo’s walls. When Marty eventually escapes, his animal friends from the zoo pursue him into New York City. After reuniting, the animals are chased by the police, and ultimately felled by tranquilliser darts. They awake, trapped in crates on a ship, which, through a series of events, is thrown off course. Upon reaching land, the animals discover they have been shipwrecked on the island of Madagascar. Ultimately, it is only in being so lost that they can begin to discover where they really belong.

Every Grade 4 - 6 learner as well as every Grade R - 3 dancer is getting ready to Move it! We hope to see you join in the fun too! Ticket Sales are now open!

Our FET learners writing exams...

From the English Department

This quarter's digital bookshelf is for true readers, as there is not much time for this leisure in between studying for our mid-year exams coming up. That being said, these suggestions will be sure to immerse you in worlds very different from our own, whether you're choosing from the genres of fiction, fantasy, historical or autobiographical. Delving into a bit of fantasy in order to face reality has proven to be very beneficial for the human (and teenage) brain.

Happy reading!

LEARNER AFFAIRS

Learners driving to school

Every year we receive requests from learners driving themselves to school to park their vehicles on the school grounds. We will not allow that for the following very important and well-considered reasons:

Safety: Hundreds of younger learners are dropped and picked up in the parking lot daily and the danger of allowing an additional approximate 100 inexperienced drivers (by the second half of the year) onto the parking lot, is a risk too big to take.
Insurance: The school has public liability insurance for injuries due to school-related events. Driving a car is not a school-related event and will therefore not be covered by our insurance.
Necessity: There is close enough access to public transport (MyCity) for there to be no need for learners to drive themselves to school if their parents are unable to do so.
Unlicensed driving: Some parents allow their children to illegally drive vehicles to school. As learners arrive and leave during peak times, it is impossible for the security guards to check licences without causing massive congestion.

There are parking embayments in College Avenue for learners to park their vehicles and when that is full, there is ample parking space available at Checkers. The parking area on the East side of the gate is also available for parking. This can be accessed from Sandown Road.

FEEDBACK

Life Sciences Outing

Our grade 12 Life sciences had the privilege of attending a workshop at CenGen, a plant biotechnology company focusing on plant genomics. Our learners had the opportunity to extract wheat DNA, requiring great skill and concentration, to achieve the desired outcome. They went on to learn about DNA profiling, how the equipment works and a tour of the facility. While they offer workshops to schools, CenGen's main focus revolves around research, specifically speeding up the process of "artificial selection" in farming, with the assistance of genome sequencing, allowing farmers to select and plant crops with known desired traits.

One of their most exciting endeavours recently undertaken, was a disease resistance gene cloning attempt with an expert team at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia. While not their main focus, they have also started mapping out the genomes of endemic plant species to assist researchers in understanding how the plants work and opening up future research opportunities in potential medicinal benefits.

From the outing they were able to experience what life in a lab looks and feels like, learnt valuable lab skills and had the opportunity to consider a potential career opportunity. We all had a lot of fun and made for a memorable day for all. - Jolandi Gibson (Subject Leader: Life Sciences)

Grade 3s visit Hospitality

As part of FAL (First Additional Language) and SAL (Second Additional Language) this quarter, the Grade 3s visited the Secondary Campus for a tour of their Culinary Department. They learned all about the baking of cupcakes ("kolwyntjies") and the ingredients used to create these culinary delights, all while broadening their Afrikaans vocabulary. Learners also had the opportunity to ice their own cupcakes and enjoy eating them in the recreation room. Thank you to Mrs Torbet and Mrs Grobler for making this such a memorable experience for our Grade 3s!

Peace Umbrella awarded to Interact

Dr. Bettey Walker, a renowned educational innovator and Rotary Club member from California since 1996, has developed meaningful partnerships with Rotary Clubs in Cape Town. Since 2000, she has been dedicated to promoting science and technology in township schools across South Africa. Another of her passions is fostering peace through language.

In support of this, she presented our Interact Club with a 'Peace Umbrella', featuring the word “PEACE” printed in all 163 official United Nations languages.

"It is easier to interest men in war than in peace; it therefore requires more moral courage to talk peace than war."

(Paul P Harris, 1868 - 1947) Founder of Rotary International

SPORT

FROM THE SPORTS DEPARTMENT

Prioritising exams but creating space to train.

This weekend at home we host De Kuilen, Cannons Creek and Bellville for our final round of rugby and hockey matches for the quarter. We’ve seen a mix of triumphs, near-misses and undeniable grit. Looking back at the quarter’s performances, the dedication and effort of our players have been obvious. We’ve had standout wins in netball, soccer, rugby and golf and real growth in hockey and cross-country.

Rugby in particular has been impressive, with the teams notching up strong results. Netball has also shown some great determination after some setbacks, while hockey has demonstrated consistent effort and resilience. And let’s not forget Steffan Hillebrand’s top finishes in cross country!

Our teams understand that sport isn’t just about the final score. It’s about commitment, showing up for one another and bouncing back stronger. Let’s build on this and push even harder in the next quarter.

Well done to the FET learners who attended training this week and best wishes to our GET learners who start exams on Monday.

Please remember we will still have at least one hour of training per week from 2nd June to 19 June.

Parklands College Shines at Ballet Eisteddfod

Our dancers had a truly memorable time at this year’s Ballet Eisteddfod, showcasing their hard work, passion, and beautiful artistry on stage. We’re proud to share a short video with some highlights from the event, capturing the joy and dedication of our learners.

Parklands College continues to lead the way in embracing diversity and inclusion in ballet. As part of this commitment, all our dancers performed in flesh-toned tights that matched their individual skin tones — a powerful step forward in making every dancer feel seen, celebrated, and proud of who they are.

There's lots of buzz in the Music Department ...

It’s been a jam-packed few weeks in our Music Department — and we’re loving the buzz! Our Creative Arts Grade 8s and 9s have been working incredibly hard in preparation for their first-ever practical assessments. From first-time piano players to brand-new guitarists and drummers, it’s been inspiring to see so many learners stepping out of their comfort zones and into the practice rooms (which have been spilling over with enthusiasm!). We’re here for the energy — and we can’t wait to build on this momentum!

Western Cape Virtual Music Eisteddfod recordings are also underway this week and next, as we head towards the final submission deadlines. Best of luck to all our performers – keep practicing and keep shining!

Last week’s Brunchtime Concert gave us the perfect moment to pause, relax, and enjoy the musical talents of our Parklands performers. The week before, we hosted a heartfelt Mother’s Day Brunch, with music educators and learners performing to an incredibly appreciative audience. There’s nothing quite like music and delectable food by the Hospitality Department to bring people together!

A reminder to all learners: we keep going strong until the end of the quarter.

Please make sure to book your lessons directly with your music educator — lessons not booked will be forfeited.

Music lessons aren’t just about scales and chords — they’re a fantastic way to stay balanced and grounded during this busy assessment season. A little time with your instrument might be just what you need to reset and refocus.

Let’s keep the music alive — all the way to the end of the quarter!

Meet Mr Stefan Lombard – Our Piano Teacher at Parklands College 🎶

We are proud to have the incredibly talented Mr Stefan Lombard as part of our Music Department. A classically trained pianist and one of South Africa’s most versatile musicians, Stefan holds a B.Mus from UCT and graduated cum laude with diplomas in both Piano and Organ from UNISA and the Associated Royal Schools of Music.

With a career that spans solo performances with leading orchestras, international musical theatre tours (Cats, Evita, The Sound of Music), and an award-winning turn as Musical Director (Naledi Award, 2015), Stefan brings a wealth of experience and passion to his teaching. He has performed globally — from Europe to Asia to the Middle East — and continues to work as a conductor, arranger, and collaborator.

In the mood to listen to some awesome music?

Africa Day at Parklands

"This is Africa: Loud, Proud, and Ours"

Last week Friday at Parklands College, we kicked off Africa Day celebrations in true Parklands style — with vibrant performances, bold fashion, and powerful reflections. From marimba beats to Afrobeats, our halls were filled with the pulse of the continent.

Why celebrate Africa Day? Because it’s more than a date on the calendar. It marks a defining moment — 25 May 1963, when African leaders came together to form the Organisation of African Unity. Their mission? To claim Africa’s future, in Africa’s hands. Today, through the African Union, that mission continues — tackling issues from innovation and peace to climate and equality.

But Africa Day isn’t only about politics and history. It’s a celebration of identity, resilience, creativity, and youth. From Rwanda’s tech-smart cities and gaming studios in Ghana, to Afrobeats chart-toppers and fashion houses lighting up Paris, Africa is not just catching up — it’s leading.

And our young people? They’re not just the future — they're the now.

At our assembly, learners reminded us that Africa lives in each of us — in the way we speak, dance, dream, and show up. Whether you were born here or made Africa your home, this is your story too.

As we round off Africa Month, we celebrate all the things that make Africa powerful — its culture, innovation, and youth. But we’re also reminded: with pride comes responsibility. It’s up to us to keep telling authentic African stories, to lift one another up, and to dream bigger than ever before.

Africa is not just a place. It’s a pulse. A possibility. And it lives in you.

I provide career guidance consultations both in-person and online. I decided to compile this ebook as it offers several advantages: convenience, affordability, and accessibility.

At R350, there is tremendous value in this personalised ebook, which includes a career assessment and feedback thereof in the ebook, interactive sheets, links for researching, and all the information contained in the consultation. The difference between the consultation and the ebook: the learner does the exploration himself/herself.

Important reminders for parents

College Crest and Logos

The College Crest and logos are registered trademarks and may not be used without permission from the Head of Marketing: cdevos@parklands.co.za

Access to Campus

Please note that for security reasons, no parents or visitors are allowed past the Admin building during the week without reporting to reception. We have instructed our learners and staff to ask anyone without a Visitor's Badge to report to reception.

No Dogs Allowed

Please note that the College does not allow animals, especially dogs, on campus, except in the following cases:

Officially registered guide or support dogs (with the necessary harness).
Pets owned by personnel residing on campus for security purposes.

Lost Cellphones

Almost on a daily basis we are asked to assist with finding lost cellphones. It has become an impossible task and we simply cannot expect staff to actively look for misplaced cellphones. We provide adequate facilities for the learners to lock their devices away.

If a learner misplaces or loses their cellphone, parents are required to report the missing device to the local police station.

Learners need to complete a report about the missing device at reception of the ICT desk in the event that it is handed in.

Air pods

We do not look for missing air pods. Learners have been told that they should rather not bring air pods to school, as they get lost easily.

Enjoy a great weekend.

Kind regards
