CBHS Newsletter 5 - Jun '09
Cape Town has been in the icy grip of winter, while our pupils have been in the process of writing their first formal exams of the year. Included with the report are some helpful hints from the Life Orientation Department on how to ‘debrief’ your child when discussing their report. I would strongly encourage you to take the time to do this.
It was a shock to everyone when the National Department of Education decided to unilaterally raise the passing requirements in Grade 8 and Grade 9. You may have followed the efforts of the Western Cape Education Department to have this postponed to next year. Sadly, the National Department cracked the whip and we had to implement with immediate effect.

The new pass requirements in Grades 8 and 9 are:
English above 50%
Mathematics above 40%
Two other learning areas above 50%
Two other learning areas above 40%
These new pass levels have dramatically increased our number of pupils who do not pass these exams. After having a good look at the Grade 8 and 9 results, most pupils failing, need to simply pass either Maths or English to ensure an overall pass. We will be working very hard to ensure this happens by the end of the next term.
Many pupils failing English in Grade 8 had not done all their class work and this had caused their marks to drop. We will again be sending out the term planner and test and assignment programme. Can you please help us help your children to get all their work in during the term.
FOUNDERS DAY ASSEMBLY (22 MAY)
We enjoyed a wonderful Founders Day Assembly.

The guest speaker was Bernard Schafer, a well-known community figure and past pupil of the school.

He shared some amusing anecdotes of his time at the school. After this, past pupils from all the Camps Bay Schools enjoyed a cup of tea with the staff in the Seminar Room.
SOIREÉ: Camps Bay Schools Concert

The Camps Bay Schools staff and senior pupils entertained all with their delightful Soireè. Under the overall management of William Cawood and Mia Martens the evening came together. A highlight of the evening that will be remembered for all time was the primary school’s ‘ABBA number’, that ended with Stuart Collier being carried aloft by his staff.

The finale was the three principals doing a song and dance number. The money raised over the two performances is used to pay for the design and layout of our school magazines at the end of the year.

2009 UCT MATHEMATICS COMPETITION PRIZE GIVING
On Wednesday 27th May Jerome Tangocci was awarded and Individual Award at the UCT Mathematics prizegiving. Well done, Jerome – who was the only Camps Bay High pupil to receive and award.

CBHS Newsletter 4 - May '09
As I watched the Interhouse plays I was again reminded just how talented our pupils are. The six plays we were treated to on Thursday 7th and Friday 8th May were all written and produced by our pupils. The theme was ‘time’ and each house interpreted this differently. Congratulations to Blue House for their win. However, I felt all houses did exceptionally well.
WESTERFORD DERBY
The weather on our Derby Day was fantastic. In fact the day was perfect in every way. Our teams competed across 4 sporting disciplines against Westerford. A highlight was when our 1st Rugby Team narrowly beat Westerford in the dying moments of the game. All the matches were played in the right spirit. These were the final results:

Well done to all the pupils who participated in the Southern Zone and Table Bay Cross Country League held at Camps Bay High on 24th April 2009. We received the following:
“Thanks to Camps Bay High for hosting the first league event of the season.
A special thanks to Mr Tucker for taking the initiative in this regard. Well done to the smiling faces of staff and learner officials who offered their valuable time to make the day a success”
A special congratulations to Danica Davies who came 1st in the 6km race in 35.16 minutes.
RUGBY TOUR TO GRAAFF REINET – APRIL HOLIDAYS
On 3rd April, Mr Cottle, Mr Becker and the Rugby boys left early in the morning with a long drive ahead to Graaff Reinet. We arrived late afternoon and went straight into practicing. While eating supper we got to meet the other players who were nearly double our size except for Ya’eesh (Bompie).
Our first game was against Winterburg and we went down 24 – 11 due to very bad refereeing. Saturday night was all action with the main event being the sokkie (Afrikaans disco). Sunday was a relaxing day with the team having a nice braai at the pool. Luckily Mr Cottle was on life-guard duty, otherwise SK would have drowned after landing face first in a double front flip dive. Monday we played our second game, the team woke up early to train and prepare for the match.
Our next opponents were Port Alfred and we won the match 18 – 5 playing an exciting and memorable game of rugby. With our boys packed and ready to go, we were on our way home with a very successful rugby tour behind us.
Player of the Tour was Benji Mokhini who played brilliantly in both games. Nicholas van Zyl was Man of the Match against Port Alfred, playing with an ankle injury.
We would like to thank our coach Mr Cottle and the Manager Mr Becker for a very memorable and successful rugby tour.
