Congratulations to the Dundee High School (DHS) matric class of 2021. Once again, you have done your school and the district proud with a pass rate of 96.8%. Five DHS learners had an average of over 80%. Dux learner Chirag Singh obtained an average of 88.4%. She achieved eight distinctions for the following subjects: ENGHL, AFRFA, LIFE, MATH, BSTD, INFT, LFSC and PHSC. Well done, Chirag! Amahle Nkosi (Dux runner-up) achieved an average of 87.3%, with seven distinctions for the following subjects: ENGHL, ZULFA, LIFE, MATH, ACCN, LFSC and PHSC. Eric Lauwrens, with an average of 87%, proudly claimed third position at DHS, also with seven distinctions in the following subjects: ENGHL, AFRFA, LIFE, MATH, BSTD, LFSC and PHSC. He was followed by Zakiya Khan, who had six distinctions in the following subjects: ENGHL, AFRFA, LIFE, MATH, VSLA, and PHSC. In fifth place was Hamzah Amod (84.3%) with five distinctions in the following subjects: MATH, LIFE, BSTD, LFSC and PHSC. Other learners who also did very well were Keano Milne (five distinctions), Asanda Mdletshe, Zakithi Mdlalose, Siphesihle Maphalala, and Miguelle Benadie (who all had four distinctions). Baie geluk, Hoërskool Dundee is trots op julle almal. Over and above the five learners with A averages, a further 16 learners obtained an average above 70%. In total, 66.2% of the 2021 Dundee High matric class qualified for admission to university by obtaining a Bachelor’s pass (matric exemption). Of the 888 examinations that were written, the class of 2021 obtained 136 subject distinctions. This means that 15.3% of all marks obtained were above 80%. Of the 21 subjects offered at Dundee High, 13 had a 100% pass rate and 11 had subject averages above 60%. Subjects with five or more distinctions were: ZULFA (41), LIFE (24), BSTD (20), AFRFA (9), ENGHL (8), VSLA (6), PHSC (5), MATH (5), LFSC (5) and MLIT (5). Results such as these once again confirm the school’s motto of ‘Strenius Ardua Cedunt’ – hard work is rewarded. These results could only be achieved through hard work, not only by the learners but also by the dedicated educators of DHS and of course with the support of the parents. Thank you and congratulations to each learner, each parent, each educator and most of all, thanks to our Heavenly Father who once again held His protective hand over our school and blessed many of our learners with good results.
