WORLD BOOK WEEK CELEBRATIONS
WORLD BOOK WEEK CELEBRATIONS
A joyful celebration of books was enjoyed by all as we experienced a variety of book events this week.
Hooked On Books entertained their audiences with song, dance and vibrant excerpts from children’s books. The learners loved seeing some of their friends on stage as well and this was a memorable event that they will talk about for a long time.
We are indebted to the staff of Bargain Books in Table Bay Mall who go to great lengths to acquire a wonderful selection of books from a wide price range to give our learners a great book shopping experience. The learners were amazed at the variety of books on display and spent happy times browsing and discussing their choices with their friends. Thank you to all the parents who came to chat and support our shop. The school gets a percentage of the sales which translates into books for our libraries.
The festivities culminated on World Book Day when our school buildings were invaded by colourful book characters and the stories came alive. It was lovely to see some of the children going straight into role play and acting out their stories.

Our Quarter 2 academic programme is in full swing and our teachers have prepared a structured and engaging curriculum, ensuring that each lesson builds meaningfully on the last. New concepts are introduced daily, and informal assessments are conducted regularly to monitor progress and support each learner’s development.
School Attendance
We wish to remind parents and learners that regular school attendance is crucial. Long-term absentees and extended vacations can result in learners missing these key learning opportunities. Please assist us by ensuring your child attends school regularly and punctually.
Please see our Learner Attendance Policy for further details.
Please note that a doctor's certificate is required if a learner is absent for a formal assessment. Please contact the Principal (pmayers@parklands.co.za) or Head of Academics (ldrawbridge@parklands.co.za) to ask for permission for your child to be absent for any other reason.
Informal Assessments
Our learners are in the process of completing various informal assessments, which are integrated into the daily class activities throughout the quarter. All informal assessments are completed at school and no studying is required.
Formal Assessments
A reminder to click on the specific grade assessment calendars on the academic tab to see your child's formal assessment schedule and study details. The study details are posted at least two weeks before the assessment. Please check calendars regularly to stay updated.

Leading the Way: Introducing Our 2026 Learner Leaders
Leadership is not a title; it is an action and an example. This week, we celebrated a significant milestone as we officially announced our 2026 Monitors and House Captains.

House Captains
These individuals carry the mantle of sportsmanship and house pride:

🏪 Ons eie Winkel: From Concept to Commerce!
🏪 Ons eie Winkel: From Concept to Commerce!
In Afrikaans our learners have been dreaming up their very own winkels (shops). This week the "grand openings" finally arrived! The classroom transformed into a bustling marketplace as learners presented their finished products with incredible pride.
This project was about so much more than just arts and crafts; it was a fantastic practical application of their language skills. We focused heavily on:
Building Vocabulary: Using specific nouns and adjectives to describe their unique produkte.
Perfecting Pronunciation: Practising the tricky sounds of a new language to ensure their sales pitches were clear and professional.
Real-World Application: Using the vocabulary they’ve learned in context as they "sold" items to their peers.
It was wonderful to hear the classroom filled with confident Afrikaans chatter. From handmade treasures to clever gadgets, the creativity on display was truly "uitstekend!" We are so proud of the hard work and imagination that went into making Ons eie Winkel such a massive success.

In celebration of Earth Day, our learners came together to reflect on how they can help protect our planet. Through meaningful discussions and creative activities, each learner made a personal pledge to care for the environment and become a responsible global citizen.
From reducing plastic use and saving water, to planting trees and keeping our school clean, these pledges show that even small actions can make a big difference. Our classroom was filled with excitement as learners shared their ideas and committed to positive change.
Grade 6 Geography Just Went Global!
Grade 6 Geography Just Went Global!
Our Grade 6 explorers have officially returned from the ultimate Discovery Adventure! For the past few weeks, our classrooms turned into a bustling travel agency as students planned epic expeditions to far-off continents.
This wasn't just any trip, our young travel agents handled it all. They hunted for the best flight paths and choosing the coolest airlines, booking dream hotels, some with pretty amazing views! They were able to map out must-see tourist attractions and hidden gems.
From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the peaks of the Andes, the learners wowed us with fascinating facts and incredible presentations. It was a whirlwind lesson around the world, and we had the most fun "traveling" together.

Grade 5 Teachers... the three blind mice!
It has been another action-packed week for our Grade Fives. In Maths we cracked open the colourful world of fractions, getting wonderfully hands-on in our tinker room where learners built bright, creative visual representations that made those tricky concepts click.
English had us supercharging our sentences as we discovered how powerful adverbs can be. We gave a beloved memory-and-matching game a brilliant twist, challenging learners to snap together different types of adverbs in a lively and competitive way.
Science: 🌍 Spreading Awareness Through Creative GIFs
This Earth Day, our Grade 5 learners explored a fun and meaningful way to spread environmental awareness by creating their own digital GIFs! Using creativity and technology, learners designed short, eye-catching animations to highlight important environmental issues such as pollution, saving water, recycling and protecting wildlife.
Gif World Earth Day (Apr 22, 2026 at 9_53 AM).mp425DBE2BA-F97E-4C89-9562-7BD9AAC376F4.mp4F835CC98-6F76-44EA-AAE9-B580A6E12362.mp4Matter and Materials
The Grade 5 learners recently took a deep dive into the fascinating world of materials in Science, exploring how and why different substances behave the way they do. Through hands-on investigation and observation, we unpacked key concepts like magnetism, electrical conduction, malleability, brittleness, and density all while comparing metals and non-metals.
In Afrikaans, Q2 kicked off with a bang as we launched our exciting new spelling tests to grow our ever-expanding vocabulary, and explored what makes a sharp, well-crafted email truly stand out.
In History we embarked on a captivating journey through time, tracing how resourceful hunter-gatherers gradually evolved into skilled herders and we simply cannot wait to uncover the incredible story of Africa's very first farmers next.
Geography took us deep underground as we explored South Africa's world-famous mines and unpacked the important difference between renewable and non-renewable resources.
To round off a thoroughly rewarding week, PSW sparked some thoughtful and heartfelt conversations about children's rights, the vital role they play in keeping young people safe, and the meaningful responsibilities that go along with them.
GRADE 4 NEWS
GRADE 4 NEWS
Our Grade 4 learners have been hard at work this quarter, embracing every opportunity to learn, grow and have fun along the way!
In Afrikaans, we’ve introduced an exciting “Word of the Day” activity to help build and strengthen learners’ vocabulary. Each day brings a new word to explore and learners are encouraged to use it in sentences and discussions.
in isiXhosa our learners have been taking pictures of the beautiful plants on our campus and connecting them with the different seasons of the years known as amaxesha onyaka.
In Geography, we have been learning about compass directions. Learners have enjoyed discovering how to navigate using north, south, east, and west, and have taken part in engaging activities that allow them to apply these skills in practical ways.
Our History lessons have focused on the remarkable life of Nelson Mandela. Through stories, discussions and reflections, learners have gained insight into his journey and the values he stood for. These lessons have encouraged thoughtful conversations about leadership, perseverance and making a positive difference in society.
In Maths, learners have been building strong number skills by working with multiples of 10 and 100. They have then applied this knowledge to column method multiplication, developing both accuracy and confidence. To end the week on a high note, we played some fun and interactive money games!
In Science, our Grade 4 "Green Guardians" have been on a mission to save the world! To celebrate Earth Day, our classrooms turned into a creative hub of environmental activism.
With passion in their hearts and markers in their hands, the learners launched outstanding campaigns to protect our beautiful planet. From vibrant, eye-catching posters to dynamic, high-energy videos, they proved that you’re never too small to make a massive difference!
It was an electrifying day filled with teamwork, laughter, and a shared love for Mother Earth. Way to go, Grade 4,the future looks bright and green with you in charge!

GROWING MINDS SHIELDS
The future requires people who are innovative, humanity-centered, relationship-oriented, compassion-focused, values-driven, globally-conscious, and planet-sensitive, in order to guarantee that this generation will become REAL agents of change. The values necessary to sustain life on earth, as humans and environmentalists, are incorporated in five global competencies across our curriculum under our “Growing Minds” banner: Critical Thinkers, Effective Communicators, Purposeful Collaborators, Creative Agents and Responsible Citizens.
In assembly this week, we awarded Tumisho the Creative Agent Shield.
Tumisho's solo performance within the Secondary Faculty Chamber Choir was a masterclass in talent and tenacity. It takes immense courage to step into the spotlight, and she did so with breathtaking grace. From the heart of our Secondary Assembly to the grand, historic stage of the Cape Town City Hall, Tumisho filled the air with something truly special. Mr. Ernstzen shares this heartfelt praise: "I am extremely proud of you, Tumisho. You were brave, focused, and you have done a truly sterling job. You have left your mark on one of Cape Town’s most famous venues and on all of us who had the privilege to listen. Be incredibly proud of yourself—you have earned it!"

French is the international language of the theatre, visual arts, dance, architecture, haute cuisine and fashion. Knowing some French also gives you direct access to the great literature and songs of the French and francophone culture, especially in Africa.
Here at Parklands College Preparatory Faculty the French enrichment course is not just about learning French grammar and vocabulary, but also getting acquainted with the culture and traditions of the French and our Francophone countries in Africa.The learners will be exposed to an interesting cultural component to make their French lessons motivational
and meaningful. Our learners will learn how to connect with French speakers by greeting, asking a few questions, counting and they will be able to even sing and entertain their families in French!
Lessons are presented by Mme Bailly at 7h00 every Friday in room 13. These lessons are at no additional costs and all learners are welcome.

A Message on Motivation: Growing Through the Game
A Message on Motivation: Growing Through the Game
To our U11 Netballers and Rugby teams: Congratulations on the fantastic results! Use this momentum to fuel your next practice. Success is built on consistency.
To our U12 Netballers: A scoreboard never tells the whole story. Some of the greatest athletes in the world learned more from their hardest losses than their easiest wins.
Keep Your Head Up: Perseverance is not about never failing; it’s about never giving up when things get difficult. Every tough match is a chance to identify what needs work. Use next week’s practice sessions to "level up" and come back stronger. We are proud of your effort and your sportsmanship!
Go Teams!
Our U12 Netball girls have arrived in Knysna and already played their first games! We wish you all the best for the rest of the tour.
They had 4 fixtures today, 3 tomorrow and 2 on Sunday before returning home. We know you are going to make us proud!
It is time to meet the players!

Security & Car Stickers
For safety reasons no learners are permitted to wait outside the College gates at any time.
Parents entering our campus are required to have a car identification sticker, which can be collected from reception. By displaying the sticker on your car, you will gain easy access to the College premises. Vehicles that do not have a sticker will be scanned. ‘At the Gate’ Access Solution is used by the College and involves drivers' and car license discs being scanned. This information is stored on a secure database off-site for future reference should the need arise. Pedestrians are also required to produce identification.
We request, for the safety of our learners, that parents and visitors who are on our campus during academic time also sign in at reception and receive a visitors badge. The badge must be returned to reception before leaving campus.
PARKLANDS COLLEGE PARTNERS WITH KLIKD FOR A DIGITAL SAFETY SOLUTION
Parenting in the digital age presents unique challenges. Balancing your child’s need for online interaction with the responsibility of keeping them safe can feel overwhelming. Excluding your child from the digital world might seem isolating, yet providing them with unrestricted access to smart devices without guidance can pose serious risks.
It is vital to equip our children with the skills they need to navigate the digital world confidently, responsibly, and safely. That’s why we are thrilled to announce our partnership with Klikd, South Africa’s leading digital safety and citizenship company. We will be rolling out Klikd’s Digital Citizenship Programme for Schools for Grades 4-6.
About Klikd
Klikd was founded by clinical psychologist Pam Tudin and social media lawyer Sarah Hoffman, combining their expertise to offer an innovative approach to cyber safety and digital citizenship education.
In today’s world, knowing how to handle challenges such as cyberbullying, gaming addiction, inappropriate content, online predators, managing one’s digital footprint and Artificial Intelligence - is no longer optional -it's essential. These aren’t skills that can be taught in a single school talk but require continuous conversations and guidance, reinforced at school and at home.
The Klikd Digital Citizenship Programme for Schools
Through our partnership with Klikd, we will offer a carefully curated programme that provides learners with the tools they need to thrive in the online world. Importantly, it also empowers you, as parents, with weekly practical resources and strategies to support your child on this journey.

Please help us by checking that all the items that your child brings home actually belong to them. If they come home with someone else's item (such as an extra shoe, hat, etc) please send it to reception the next day so that we can return labelled items to the owner.
It is important that all items are labelled clearly so that lost items can be returned. Parents are welcome to come in to reception to view lost property items. Items not labelled will be in lost property and donated to the second hand shop at the end of each quarter.
