Paving the way to an unforgettable farewell

Kimberly Mujoro
Grade 12 advanced subsidiary learners at JG van der Wath Secondary School are on a mission, fuelled by determination and a shared vision. With the matric farewell just around the corner, these remarkable young individuals are leaving no stone unturned to ensure it becomes an unforgettable milestone in their high school journey.

Their relentless efforts have already yielded impressive results through two successful fundraisers, and they are gearing up for more exciting events in the coming weeks.

The inaugural fundraiser, a Barbie-themed casual day, was an inspiring showcase of unity and creativity within the school community.

Both learners and staff enthusiastically embraced the challenge to dress in the iconic Barbie and Ken colours, donning various shades of pink and blue, all while contributing a modest N$5 each to support the cause. The event surpassed all expectations, with the grade 12s amassing an impressive N$2 500.

This remarkable achievement served as testament to their ingenuity and the unwavering support of their peers and educators.

For their second fundraising endeavour, the learners rolled up their sleeves and put their culinary skills to the test.

They organised a delectable braai, offering a range of appetising plates priced between N$50 and N$100.

Impressively, every dish was meticulously prepared by the learners themselves, demonstrating their dedication to the cause. The braai, held during the lunch break, became an instant hit within the school community, as the tantalising aromas wafted through the campus, drawing both learners and staff to partake in this delicious fundraiser.

The farewell holds a special place in the hearts of the grade 12s, as it signifies the culmination of their high school education and marks the beginning of a new chapter in their lives.

With this in mind, they have committed themselves to the task of raising the necessary funds to ensure their farewell is not just an event but a cherished memory for all who attend.

What's truly heartwarming is the overwhelming support the school community has shown for these young achievers. Countless learners and staff members have opened their hearts and wallets, contributing both financially and with their time to assist with the fundraisers.

The learners are immensely grateful for this solidarity and feel inspired by the collective efforts. Their confidence in reaching their fundraising goal is soaring, and they eagerly anticipate sharing the magic of their farewell with everyone who has played a part in their journey.

As the excitement builds and the farewell draws nearer, the learners are unwavering in their commitment to crafting an unforgettable event. Their resilience, creativity and the unwavering support of their school community serve as a shining example of what can be achieved when a group of dedicated individuals comes together to pursue a common dream.
