On Wednesday, January 27, the DHS prefects organised the annual fun filled Colour Festival of boeresport, colour and a gallon of molasses!
This day is arranged in order for learners to get to know each other and for spirit building before the competitive season of athletics and winter sport begins. The Colour Festival was traditionally known by DHS veterans as the Fruit Festival but due to the current economic status of our country and the drought, it was decided to tweak the Festival a little. Learners really enjoyed themselves and the Grade 8s relished the last hurdle of their initiation!
SERIOUS RIVALRY AS THE SHARKS AND DOLPHINS COMPETE AGAINST EACH OTHER AT THE ATHLETICS DAY

On Friday, January 29, DHS held their athletics day where all learners competed against each other in various field and track events. The even was blessed with a beautiful day and the sound of learners singing in unison on the pavilion still resonates with spectators.
It was a fun filled day with many smiles, competitive spirits and some pleasant surprises of raw talent. The day ended on a high note as the matrics did their 2016 walk to celebrate their last athletics meeting and then the relay teams showed spectators their flair.
The last event consisted of a relay against the teachers. Let’s just say age is NOT just a number! The school wishes a speedy recovery to the injured teachers and extend their congratulations to the hostel boys who won the event.
Results to follow next week!
