Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela In the spirit of Nelson Mandela, we would like to participate as a school in a Mandela Day Drive. These are the two worthy projects that we have decided to endorse this year. The first involves donating a carton of fat-free long-life milk which is use to feed orphaned baby rhinos. South Africa is blessed to have these magnificent creatures, but illegal rhino poaching has caused catastrophic results for the rhino population, which is facing constant depletion because of poaching. You may donate as many cartons as you like, so long as it is fat-free long-life milk which is easier for the baby rhinos to digest. https://ferriscars.com/supercare-rhino-run/ The second project involves collection donations for the SPCA. As all are aware the SPCA is always in need of food, blankets and funds especially with the ever-growing number of surrendered animals and the number of pets not sterilised. You may donate funds to the school, food or blankets. Any form of donation and fund raising makes a huge difference to the SPCA's ability to care for the animal and makes a difference in the community. During the third term we will be handing over all our donations to the chosen charities and we know that they will appreciate any heartfelt gesture made to them. The aim of this initiative is two-fold. Firstly, we would like to make the children aware that there are people and animals less fortunate than themselves in all aspects of life and that if we are in a position to share a little of what we have, we should. Secondly, we would like to educate them about the different charities. Thank you in advance for the support. Rhino Orphan Supercar Run 2024 Schools Brochure

Hooked on Books Easter Bunny and the Boss Date Night 2018 Inflatable Day 2018 Valentines Disco 2018 Scholar patrol We received complaints about traffic in the mornings so as a staff, we became "traffic officers" in our school tracksuits to monitor the cars and help our little ones cross the road safely. Great fun was had by all.

Whilst many schools host an annual “Big Walk”, the PA wanted a walk with a difference – a walk that would encourage families to spend time together and interact with one another in a spirit of community building. This year, on Saturday 3 February, the PA surpassed even its own expectations by selling a whopping 1 200 tickets to the event! Parents and children alike rose to the challenge and dressed in whatever funky, super hero outfit they could find. Those who were more sedate in nature were content just to participate in the 5km walk, whilst the more athletically minded decided to sprint in record time. Even the teachers led by example, with the water points manned (or should we also say womanned?) by staff in funky super hero costumes! The Funky Walk really did prove to be a community project. As soon as we sold our 1 000th ticket, organisers had to move fast to arrange ambulances on standby on the field, as per municipal regulations. Eager to contribute towards the festive atmosphere and to ensure that the day would not be marred by any unforeseen injuries or calamities, not one but three ambulances came to our rescue to stand guard at the Finish Line. Fortunately, their services were not required, but we went the extra mile to make sure that nothing was left to chance. After an exuberant race to the end, many families stayed behind to recharge their batteries and feast on tasty food like Prego rolls, boerewors rolls, hamburgers and hotdogs. Spot prizes were given to those who had entered the race and the fun continued long after the race had ended. To all the PA members who organised the Funky Walk, kudos to you for a superb event and a big thank you to the teachers for working from 06:30 until the race had ended. To the parents, children and community members who participated in this event, we extend a special word of appreciation for making the day such a huge success. Roll on 2019 – we can’t wait to see what a fantastic event the next Funky Walk will be! Easter Raffle Winners: 1st Prize – Molemo Mphuthi 2nd Prize – Julie McAdam 3rd Prize – Awande Mahlobo Child who raised the most money – Antony Kirk Class that raised the most money will be announced on 12 April and will receive a pizza lunch. A big thank you to our Easter Egg Hunt sponsors, Karaglen Superspar and Birchgate Spar – the learners had a ball searching the school grounds for the eggs. We would also like to extend a big thank you to the PA – all the parent and the partners of the PA who give up precious time to make events successful and fun for everyone. Thank you for all your efforts, the events have been enjoyed by all. Grade 7 Career Day 2018 Awards 2018 Foundation Phase Awards 2018 Intersen Phase Awards 2018 Grade 7 Kwalata 2018 The EPS 40th Birthday Party Grade 1 Orientation Art Exhibition 2018 Science Scufflers First day at school After a restless night and much tossing and turning, it was time to hand out the tissues, fix the appearance and get ready for the first day in Grade One – and that was just for the parents! The first day in Grade One proved to be an exciting event for most of our learners. The children were excited to meet their teachers for the first time and to see where they would sit. Of course, most importantly, they couldn’t wait to see what their lunch boxes contained! New friendships were forged over sandwiches and tasty delights which had been packed for this special day. Fears overcome, there was much fun to be had as boys and girls played together on the jungle gym and told their new friends all about themselves. After handing in books and stationery, some children went on a tour of the school and were shown two of the most important places in a school – the toilets and the tuck shop. Then it was back to some fun learning and before you knew it, the bell had rung and it was time to go home. Only one more sleep before the fun would begin all over again!

At Edenglen Primary School, we believe in the holistic education of learners. We also believe that preparing children to take on a meaningful role in society in the years to come means taking the time to assist each learner reach his or her full potential in all areas of school life. At Edenglen Primary School, we believe in the holistic education of learners. We also believe that preparing children to take on a meaningful role in society in the years to come means taking the time to assist each learner reach his or her full potential in all areas of school life. With our modern and reliable resource facilities and a wide educational infrastructure, Edenglen provides learners an idea base from which they can explore – and realise - their full potential. Academics Academics remains one of our most important priorities. We teach strictly according to the curricular policy and prescriptions of the Curriculum Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS Curriculum). Formal assessment tasks, as captured in the CAPS curriculum, are done regularly and learners receive a formal assessment plan each term. These assessments, calculated according to the Departmental 1 to 7 -point scale, determine the final mark of each subject. Meanwhile, continuous informal assessment takes place daily according to various assessment strategies in preparation for formal assessment tasks. At the end of Term 2 and Term 4, learners from Grade 4 to 7 also write examinations according to a set examination time table. Recognition and academic awards are given to those who are placed within the Top Five, and subject awards are also given. Learner support Assisting us to support learners experiencing learning difficulties are a number of specialist within our immediate community. We refer learners to credible speech therapists, occupational therapists, and remedial therapists. We also have a speech therapist, an occupational therapist, and a remedial therapist who work on the school premises twice a week. This means therapy can be built into the learners’ school day. It also allows teachers and therapists to work more closely together, ensuring maximum benefit from the support programme. Should a learner require any of the above therapies, an assessment is carried out. Based on the outcome, an appropriate intervention programme is put into place. Where possible, this is incorporated into the classroom by the teacher. There may, however, be a need for the parent or guardian to take the child for additional therapy, which would be for the cost of the parent. Above all, parental involvement is the biggest support needed. Congratulations Term 1 Top 10
