Our coaches, lead by Ms Solome Baloyi are working hard to prepare the teams for the Circuit Competitions to take place in the third quarter.

The team has done a lot in equipping and working with learners. Since 2015, we have participated up to provincial level and the highest achievement we have had was when we got 3rd place at the provincial finals in 2021. The school hosts AstroQuiz friendly competitions against other schools within and around Mokopane. Our AstroQuiz team also qualified for the provincial finals in 2023.

Spelling Bee & Poetry:
Since 2015 we have achieved a lot!!! In 2022, one of the Grade 5 learners Ompha Mbengeni came second at the circuit Spelling Bee competition held at EMPC. In 2023, our very own Rethakgetse Toona got first place but was later eliminated at the District competition, however Mesgana Kebede and Mokgaetji Mokonyane from Grade 7 made it to the district level.

Robotics:
We have learners from Grade R up to Grade 7 who are part of the tech team! We introduced Robotics with the aim to train and prepare our learners for the future as we are moving into the digital world. Having such a program helps develop our learners into critical thinkers and problem solvers, this also equips them with a lot of information required in the IT department. We basically use Robotics to solve problems.
