World Book Day
To celebrate World Book Day learners from Gene Louw Primary designed “giant” themed bookmarks. Learners had to decide on a book of their choice and then design a bookmark using the characters in the book as their inspiration. Two learners from each Grade were chosen as the winners.
Winners of the best bookmarks: Back: Stella Horvath, Lisa Louw, Glichelle Delport. Middle: Kungawo Mehlamakulu, Kevin Moore, Gemma Pigeon, Zandre Deetlefs, Kayleigh Bauer, Irene Fan Chiang, In the front: Umeshan Pillay, Zak Swart, Joshua Enslin, Amy Venter, Absent: Tauqueer Rinquest and Meleah Neethling.
They also launched a project where families were asked to donate any second hand children’s books. These books will be distributed between less privileged schools and institutions. Here are Grade 2 learners with some of the books which were donated.
Gr. 7 kamp
During the week of 10 – 14 March the Grade 7 learners of Gene Louw Primary School, once again, had the opportunity to experience Oudtshoorn for a week: accumulating memories! The excitement was tangible when the Grade 7’s, each class dressed in their uniquely designed camp T-shirts, left on the Monday morning. The 223 learners
resided at the beautiful De Hoek Mountain Resort, 25km outside Oudtshoorn. For many of the learners it was their first visit to places such as the Cango Caves, Cango Wildlife Ranch and the Sahara Ostrich Show Farm. This, along with fun activities such as canoeing, archery, camel riding and swimming, all formed part of their busy programme. The learners described the camp as “the highlight of their primary school careers”.
