Grade 11s going GREEN and making memories

 A memory is a gift that you can cherish forever

"The best gifts in the world are not in the material objects one can buy from the store, but in the memories we make with the people we love"

The most beautiful memories are made when you weren't even planning on making memories. Simply by having this remarkable opportunity of participating in Interschools, we have so much to look forward to together: Not just the sports matches, but rather the smaller moments we often take for granted. The moments when our friends paint our faces jade, white and blue facepaint, or the moments when our teammates are huddled together for one last time before our final match or the moments that we can stand alongside our sisters whilst supporting our friends.

In the future we might not remember the final scores of every match, but rather the time we spent embracing every moment during Interschools. The grade 11s of Paarl Girls’ High is a mettlesome grade whose lively and free-spirits never falters. With the innermost belief in the magic in making memories, our grade 11s proudly embraced the Paarl Girls' High spirit by participating in our "Dress Green Day".

These fond memories we have the privilege of making everyday with our sisters truly is a gift that shouldn't be taken for granted. As sisters standing side by side, we know that we are currently forming future memories that we can hold close to our hearts forever.

Dit is ook sekerlik die vraag wat van die o.13A hokkiespelertjies vanaand vra, soos hulle lywe en hul harte seer is.  Vanaand se o.13A hokkie wedstryd was ‘n titaniese stryd. Die eindtelling van 0-5 weerspieël nie die harde werk van die dogters nie. Daar is nie doekies om te draai nie, die span van Gimnasium was ‘n besondere sterk en gedetermineerde span. Hulle het gekom om te wen.  Hulle het egter nie gereken op die hardnekkig weerstand en verdediging wat ons o.13 A-span geopenbaar het nie. Gimnasium se middelveld-spelers het van die begin af druk op ons geplaas. As toeskouer het jy daar gesit en naels gebyt. Het mens dit nie al so baie vantevore in sulke hoё druk wedstryde gesien nie? As sulke gedetermineerde speler...
