Three Estcourt Christian Academy pupils, Nicole Keyter, Sarah Kühn and Emma Haynes, together with Sarah’s parents Jon and Tracy, have recently returned from a very successful trip to America where they represented Africa at the International Student Convention for Christian schools in Indiana, Pennsylvania.
Sarah won a gold medal for coming first in table tennis and medals for coming fifth for her power point and sixth for her essay.
Nicole received a medal for coming sixth in her 200m race.
In the group there were 66 children from all over South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia and Zambia.
Wherever they went they were praised for their good behaviour, friendliness and manners.
One headmaster from an American school even wrote to the sponsors saying how they had impacted his school. They had a great time and would like to thank everyone who supported them. Because of you all they have many treasured memories. We are so proud of them as they are true ambassadors for their school and country.
