ACHIEVEMENTS
Congratulations to
Jack Buchanan
(Grade
6) who participated in a cricket festival held in
Worcester during the December Holidays. He
played in the team that won the U/11 division of
the tournament in a fantastic final match. Con-
gratulations to Jack who scored 50, 65 and 88
in 3 matches that earned him the “Player of the
Festival” Trophy.
Jack was also selected
for the Western Cape Di-
sas tennis team towards
the end of last year. Jack
will be going on tour and
participating in provincial
tournaments this year. We
wish him all the very best.
Jack also recently won the
Kuilsriver U/13 Junior Golf
Championship, carding a
final score of 75.
Nicholas Sendin

Inter Regional Cricket

cember holidays. He was
praised by his coach for
his outstanding fast bowl-
ing. Nicholas batted 6 in-
nings and scored not less
than 24 in three of those
innings, receiving the accolade for best bowler
and wicket taker. Congratulations, Nicholas.
Jemma Lampel

also a talented young ice skat-

Kayden became a rat-
