International SAICE bridge building competition.
The Sarel Cilliers High School bridge building team, who won the Drakensberg Region competition in March 2018, was invited to take part in the International Competition, held at St Albans College in Pretoria on August 31.
Sarel’s team members, Ernst van Rooyen, Thubelihle Luthuli and Janz Potgieter excelled in the competition and ended in 4th place overall.
Taking part and being exposed to this level of competition, was a wonderful experience for everyone involved.
The team’s bridge carried a mass of 120kg, which placed them in 4th position, a mere 4 points margin between them and the 3rd place.
Well done boys, you made the school very proud!
