They entered the competition in May this year and received the news on 15 August that they made it through to the finals.
Bartie, who is determined to have every single one of the learners attend the competition said, “This is an opportunity to show all the love, dedication, and hard work we put into educating and caring for every single learner in our school.”
Adding to this she said having the learners participate in the competition in Cape Town will be a great adventure and will boost their self-confidence, “and show them that they get rewarded for all the hard work they put in.”
The school is however struggling to get sponsors to fund the learners who can’t afford the trip, if you’re in a position to assist, please contact Tanya Bartie on 082 578 8286.
