Crawford International excels at the Chinese Bridge International Competition. Crawford learners recently participated in the 3rd annual Chinese Bridge International competition where they had incredible achievements for the foreign primary school South African finals which took place on June 15 in Cape Town.
The competition this year was under the theme of ‘Chinese, Joy and Fun,’ and it was organised by the Embassy of China in South Africa. Four exceptional representatives from Crawford International Schools, namely Dreyah Naicker in Grade 6 and Mbalenhle Mabuza in Grade 7 from Crawford International Lonehill Prep, and Olamide Destiny Adelusi in Grade 6 and Mandilakhe Sidwaba in Grade 7 from Crawford International Fourways, showcased their remarkable skills and passion for Chinese language and culture.
The competition comprised two parts – firstly, a presentation or speech demonstrating the contestants’ Chinese language abilities, while the second part allowed them to exhibit their talents in traditional Chinese arts such as singing, dancing, martial arts, calligraphy, and playing musical instruments.
“Participating in the competition provided our learners with a wonderful opportunity to explore a different culture and broaden their horizons. We are immensely proud of their accomplishments and their representation of Crawford International Schools’ core values of Respect, Diversity, and Inclusion. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Dreyah Naicker, Mbalenhle Mabuza, Olamide Destiny Adelusi, Mandilakhe Sidwaba, and their dedicated Mandarin teacher Yingchun Lin for their exceptional performance and for bringing honour to our school community,” said Louise Clarke-Mathers, client experience officer at Crawford International Lonehill Prep.
