This week at Landbou was one again loaded with work and other activities.
A stunning Valentine’s Day hamper was raffled off, with learners eagerly selling tickets to their friends, family and teachers! The lucky winner was Ntombenhle Khumalo, a learner at Landbou. The school was an array of colours on Valentine’s Day, with learners dressed in civvies to celebrate the day. The halls bustled with excitement; especially, when the Grade 11s handed out the Valentine’s goodies they sold as part of their Matric farewell fundraising. Our principal, Mr Geert Slump, proudly accepted an award on behalf of the school to honour Landbou’s 2021 100% Matric pass rate.

The grade 12 classes are doing their practicals in the Agritech workshop.

On Thursday, Landbou learners celebrated the month of love with a successful sokkie organised by the enthusiastic grade 11 learners.
