Donderdag het Sarel Cilliers se Afrikaans Huistaal aan die finale rondte van die E.G. Jansen redenaarskompetisie deelgeneem. Alhoewel ons nie in die top drie geëindig het nie, was ons trots op ons redenaars. Baie dankie vir julle tyd, waagmoed en poging. Die seniorspan het bestaan uit Janz Potgieter en Charné Stoop en die juniorspan uit Bianca Hunlun en André Niemann.
Hockey and Rugby Tournament at Voortrekker
The first team hockey girls played in a tournament at Voortrekker High School in Pietermaritzburg. It was once again an early start to their Saturday, but this time in a hot and humid PMB. The team played six matches altogether. They won two (against Empangeni and Durban North college), drew two (against Voortrekker and Greytown) and lost two (against Newcastle High and King Edward).
The girls would like to thank their supportive parents. Sarel Cilliers Rugby Leeus vertrek Saterdag 24/03/18 na Voortrekker in Pietermaritzburg om deel te neem aan hulle jaarlikse sport dag.
All of the rugby teams played against the hosting school and despite the suffocating heat, managed to win all their games with a true ‘never surrender’ attitude.
The u/14 and u/15 teams beat their opponents who had an unbeaten record this year, by 24-7 and 21-0 respectively. The u/16 team won 39-12 in a high paced, tense encounter. The second team in a tough game were tested to their limits and won 17-5. Die eerste span speel in die hoofwedstryd, en met ‘n vorige verloor teen Voortrekker word die wedstryd geag as baie belangrik vir albei spanne. Sarel Cilliers hardloop die veld op as ‘underdogs’ maar brul so hard soos wat kan in ‘n pragwedstryd en klop Voortrekker oortuigend 40 -19.
Netball Tournament in Pietermaritzburg
