Gr 1s skip into school life at St Ursula’s
Shiny shoes, bright smiles and eager hearts marked the first school day for St Ursula’s new Grade Ones.
The new Grade One learners at St Ursula’s Primary School arrived full of enthusiasm and energy as they embarked on their first official day of school on January 14.
With shiny new shoes, neatly pressed uniforms and bright, eager faces, the excitement was unmistakable. Some youngsters confidently let go of mom or dad’s hand on arrival, while others wasted no time making new friends.
Teachers were also well prepared for the new academic year, lining up with registers and stationery in hand to ensure the little learners were ready to begin their school journey.
St Ursula’s Primary School is one of the few Catholic schools in Krugersdorp and was founded in 1904, when the premises consisted of an old farmhouse on uncultivated land. The school is part of the Ursuline family of schools, which is found worldwide.
According to the school’s official website, Ursuline education dates back more than 560 years.
