Die nuwe jaar is op ‘n hoogtepunt vir talle blinkoog en soms haasbek graad 1’s in Potchefstroom op Woensdag, 17 Januarie begin.
Vir die eerste keer kan hulle nou ook skool toe gaan en ‘n 12 jaar skoolreis begin wat natuurlik talle hoogtepunte, interessanthede en soms ‘n traan of twee sal insluit.

Van die kinders was natuurlik vol glimlagte om hul nuwe juffrou te groet e nook maatjies te ontmoet. Party, het ook dit effens moeilik gevind om hul mammas en pappas te groet, maar met die kleurvolle klaskamer en oulike aktiwiteite het enige trane blitsvinnig in sonskynglimlagte verander.
Grade 1’s started the new year all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on their first day of school on Wednesday, 17 January.
The class of 2024 were eager to get to the classrooms and meet new faces that will become their school friends for the next 12 years.
Proud parents also could not get enough of their grade 1 star who most often than not had to put on a continues smile for all the photos!
