Marist Brothers Linmeyer welcomes Grade Eights at bell-ringing ceremony

After each learner rang the bell, they all lit candles and received a blessing from the Priest, Father Tshepo Duik.

Marist Brothers Linmeyer High School held their Grade Eight ringing-in ceremony to conclude their orientation week on January 27.

Each Grade Eight learner rang the bell of hope, symbolising their official welcome to high school. After completing their matric final examination in four years’ time, the learners will ring the bell once more.
