2018 ST HENRY’S MARIST COLLEGE 1

 FOREWORD
It
is a great honour
to have been
asked to write the
Foreword to this year’s
Magazine.
T his gives me the opportunity to
describe a new development
in Marist South Africa which
demonstrates an active and positive response to change.
A group of Southern African Marist Brothers and lay-
people has been formed to work in conjunction with
the Marist Brothers in South Africa to ensure that their
good work is sustained and perpetuated now that most
of them are retiring from active service. This group is
called the Marist SA Custodians, or Custodians, for short.
It is the second group consisting of Brothers and lay-
people established in the last twenty years. The first
group was the Marist Schools’ Council (MSC). That
Council was formed to assist the Brothers in overseeing
the functions of the 5 Marist Schools in South Africa.
T he idea of the MSC was very innovative and progressive
and it soon became an example to the Marist World
as to how there could be successful collaboration between
the Brothers and the laity in accomplishing the aims of the
Marist mission. Fresh blood was introduced to the MSC
in 2018 and the new Council has started its work with
great enthusiasm and success. Tim Campbell represents
the MSC at St. Henry’s.
T he Custodians are an equally ground-breaking group
who have already received wide support from other
Marist structures. 
A
t the time of writing this, the Custodians consist of 5
Marist Brothers and 3 lay people: Brother Norbert
(Brother Provincial), Brother John (Provincial Bursar),
Brother Fortune (Chairman of the MSC), Brothers Jude
and Joseph (former Brothers Provincial), Adrienne
Egbers and Alan Barbeau (former members of the Marist
Schools’ Council and associated with Johannesburg
Marist Schools: Sacred Heart College and Marist Brothers
Linmeyer, respectively) and I.
2 ST HENRY’S MARIST COLLEGE
S
imply put: the role of the
Custodians is to gradually assume
work hitherto done by Marist
Brothers in South Africa. We work
under the direction of the Brother
Provincial and Provincial Council
of the Marist Brothers for Southern
Africa to further develop the Marist
presence in South Africa.
A
nd, there is some immediate
positive news. Although the
Marist Brothers who are so well
known to the St. Henry’s Family may not be as numerous
as in past years, Marist Brothers still thrive in South
Africa and apart from the Community at Sacred Heart
College in Johannesburg, there is an active Community of
teaching Brothers at St. Joseph’s Marist College in Cape
Town and a new Community of Brothers and lay-people
undertaking voluntary work helping those in need in
Atlantis in the Western Cape.
T here are many in the South African Marist Family who
know about the achievements of St. Henry’s during
2018. It seems that this College is going from strength to
strength.
I t is also well known how hard all those associated with
the College have worked to gain such success: pupils,
teachers, parents, those who work in administration,
maintenance teams and management, ably led by a
person who has himself achieved great personal success in
2018 by being capped as a Doctor of Philosophy, Stephen
Leech.
C ongratulations to Dr Leech and to this fine College
and all those associated with it. 2018 has been a good
year.
M ay 2019 shower special blessings on this great
institution, particularly as it looks back on its huge
contribution to Durban and beyond over its 90 years of
dedicated service.

you enjoy this snapshot of the year’s activities via the articles, reports and
photographs that reveal a year in the life of a school.

capture the essence of the school. They are of course important but it is really the
people who make up this place that we call St Henry’s.
T his is evident in the smiling faces of the little ones in the Pre-Primary and Junior
Preparatory phases, the youthful vigour of the Senior Preparatory phase and the
unfolding potential of the High School students. It is evident in visible passion and
commitment of our staff, our proud parent community and our alumni, in whom we
see the achievements of the school. A yearbook is the record of the people who make
up a school, who give it its unique sense of purpose, its energy and its je ne sais quoi.
S o, as you page through this Yearbook, rejoice in the knowledge that our St Henry’s
family truly has a 2018 record worthy of its value and importance.
A bove all, let us give thanks for all that was achieved during 2018. It was a busy year, as it should be for a school
such as St Henry’s. We have our vision and master plan at hand and in anticipating the 90th anniversary of our
School next year, which though it may be a venerable institution, remains relevant and vital in modern times, I say to
our St Henry’s family: Omnia Vincite!

Religion Report
A s the 2018 Academic year began, the first
introduction to our special school for our
new families, was to celebrate with our first term
Academic Mass. Liturgy for the masses during
the year was prepared collaboratively with
Geri Lazarus, our 2018 Head of Chapel and Fr
Sean, who continued in his role as chaplain at St
Henry’s.
O ur Term 2 Academic Mass focused on the
theme of Jesus: I am the Bread of Life. Mass
was celebrated by Fr Sean Mullin C.S.Sp of the
Redemptorist order. His homily about the loaves
and the fish will be remembered by the children.
A t the beginning of the second term, a
number of Grade 11s accompanied by
Mrs Raquel Biggar, Mrs Barbara Munsami
and Fr Sean Mullin C.S.Sp went on
pilgrimage to Ngome, a place of Marian
worship in KwaZulu Natal, where Mary
appeared to Sr Reinholda May OSB in 1955.
Thank you Mrs Biggar and Mrs Munsami for
organising a very meaningful pilgrimage for

Front row: Mr S Ackerman, Cian Wilkes, Dr S Leech, Joshua Baxter, Mrs C Vermeulen ur Champagnat Day mass was
celebrated by Fr Thembelani Ngcobo,
parish priest at Sacred Heart, Montclair. We celebrated
with Marist schools around the world and in South Africa,
the difference that St Marcellin Champagnat made in
educating children and making Jesus known and loved. At
the conclusion of mass, Dr Leech lit a candle to signify that
as we prepare for our 90th anniversary year, we continue
to be a beacon of light and hope in education.
F r Donovan Wheatley OMI celebrated the Academic
Mass for Term 3, with the theme of Jesus our Good
Shepherd. Our final Academic Mass was celebrated by our
St Henry’s alumnus, Fr David Houbert on the feast day of
Our Holy Guardian Angels. We thank all the priests who
have given of their time to celebrate the Sacrament of the
Holy Eucharist with us.
T uesday morning and Thursday lunchtime masses
continued throughout the year and it has been
gratifying to note gradual increased attendance from the
pupils, staff and parents. We are blessed that we can take
time out from our busy schedules to meet Jesus in the
Word and in the Eucharist.

ETHOS
E T HO S
E ach year, teachers from the 5 Marist
schools in South Africa are invited
to attend a retreat workshop, in which
they are immersed in understanding
the charism of St Marcellin
Champagnat and what it means to
be a teacher at a Marist School. These
are wonderful opportunities for
younger teachers to be inspired by
the Marist spirituality and to reignite
the flame in teachers who have been
at a Marist school for a longer time.
The workshops are facilitated by a
team of teachers from one of the
Marist schools who themselves have
attended Sharing Our Call, or been
on the Marist pilgrimage to
Italy and France. This year a
team from St Henrys Marist
College, consisting of Dr S
Leech, Mr S Ackerman, Mrs
C Vermeulen, Mrs D Venter,
Mrs B Burns, Mrs T Swart,
Mr D Rehman, and Mrs T
Peters-Newman, together
with Brother Fortune and
Mr Mike Greeff, facilitated
the workshop at the Good
Shepherd Retreat Centre
at Hartebeespoort Dam.
26 delegates from the 5
schools attended, including our own Mrs A Thomson,
Ms T Ridgway and Ms P Khumalo.
D uring the course of the year, 5 of our teachers: Mrs
Romi Schumann, Mrs Michelle Singh, Ms Lizelle
Couch, Mrs Margaret Appenah and Mrs Barbara Burns,
attended monthly workshops at Glenwood Pastoral
Centre, receiving recognition for an Advanced Certificate
Course on the Mystery of Mercy.
T he Grade 8s were involved in the Heart Zone
project as part of the Innov8 project based learning
programme. They had an experience of understanding
the faith of others and also finding their own faith space
within themselves.
T he Marist Brothers have always been supportive in
nurturing the spiritual life of the management and
teachers in our schools, so during a weekend in November,
many of the staff in the Marist schools, who had taken
part in a pilgrimage to Italy and France, were invited to a
Pilgrimage Energiser. They returned refreshed to continue
the task of leading staff and children, according to the
Marist characteristics so important in our schools.
W e wish Mrs Raquel Biggar well in her move to New
Zealand and thank her for the input she has had in
the development and teaching of the Religion curriculum
in the High School.
A s we look forward to the 90th anniversary of St
Henry’s in 2019, may we continue to embrace the
examples of Jesus and Mary, and respond boldly to the
emerging needs of the young people, whose lives are
entrusted to our care.

members of our Grade 12s and the Grade 12s.

around the tables we stand and chat with one another.
A t the basis of these rituals and customs is a deeper
meaning. The word ‘valedictory’ is derived from the
Latin phrase vale dicere meaning ‘to say farewell’ and
so the purpose of this evening is to say farewell to the
Grade 12s as they move towards the completion of their
schooling. In years gone by, the custom was very different
in this school. There was little fanfare for the Grade 12s,
no bell-ringing, no awards. Lessons came to an end, exams
were then done and that was really it. The Grade 12s left.
There was no room for sentiment or nostalgia. There was
a matric Mass but that was a very simple, stand-alone
celebration. I can recall quite clearly completing my final
examination in my matric year, which was Biology, in the
old hall, now the Drama Studio, then being dismissed
from the exam room and walking down the old driveway
which curved around from outside the Technology Room,
through where the tennis courts are and down past the
Pre-primary section to Mazizi Kunene Rd…and that was
it.
can be surrounded by three of four
children hanging onto you and all talking
at once. Now I am not suggesting that
we should do this in High School but
the youthfulness, the friendliness, the
unfettered joy in each of these children
– is indeed a pleasure. I look at the each
of these children, the 000s, 00s and Rs
and wonder at the potential they have
in each of them to leave a legacy when
they complete Grade 12 between the
year 2030 and 2032.
H ere you are Grade 12s, already at
this point in your lives. So, Grade
12s, I ask you to reflect on your legacy
here at St Henry’s – what is it and then to
consider that as you go through the next
chapters of your life, what legacies you
will leave in each of these.
A
legacy though is not a name on
a board, a name on a building, it
know so well, then the education we
have given you here at St Henry’s has
not been in vain and you will have
indeed left a legacy of importance.
A
s we formally say goodbye to
you this evening, I encourage
you to reflect on this as a basis for
approaching the next chapters in your
lives. St Augustine, an African bishop
and scholar, who lived 1 700 years
ago, understood the need for such
reflection. As he explained, ‘People
travel to wonder at the height of
mountains, at the huge waves of
the sea, at the long courses of rivers,
at the vast compass of the ocean, at
the circular motion of the stars; [but]
they pass by themselves without
wondering’. Without stopping to
wonder, without reflecting on what
we have done and why we have done

Toulouras, thank you for your words this evening. I

thank Jamie, Luke, Chelsea-Lea, Tristan and Geri for
their leadership and in particular I commend you on the
excellent ambassadors you have been for St Henry’s this
year.
I t is also important on this evening to offer thanks to
O ver the years though, our view of the completion of
schooling here at the school has changed as we have
come to recognise that it is a special moment, worthy of
commemorating. On returning to the school as a staff
member in the early 2000s, I was pleased to see that an
annual Valedictory Day was scheduled, something which
has been added to over the years. It made perfect sense to
have a proper and dignified opportunity to say goodbye

structures which can so easily be destroyed. We sit here
this evening in a building named for the Marist Alumni
Association and for which they assisted with funds. We
must be aware though that this building could in time

In this sense, the alumni legacy lies not in the physical

held, the efforts that they made and the commitment they
demonstrated. Legacy then is about why you do it, not

W ell class, we made it as a group, we did indeed
start from the very bottom. Now it looks like the
whole team’s here at the top. Think about how far we
have come individually and as a class, looking back to
that grade 8 orientation week when we were all so small
and we didn’t know everyone but we started a journey
together, one in which we grew and learned together.
From grade 9 when we thought we were the big shots
of high school already to grade 10 when we realized that
having less subjects just meant more work to grade 11
when we were told this will be your hardest year and to
grade 12 where we all learnt to hate the word “ORTO”.
We’ve been on this journey together for five years now.
Some have joined later, some have left but what matters
is that everyone seated here has been a part of it and has
shaped the lives of each one of us.
I ’d like to talk about a school trip we took in grade
10 to Babanango. While there we had to complete a
task where we were split into groups and we had to get
everyone over the log. Whether you started with the big
people or the small people you had to get everyone over
it and I think that’s how high school has been for us.
Through all the hurdles and challenges we had to get
over we did because of each other. We did it together.
#BlessedsoBlessed
T his class of 2018 has undoubtedly been one of the
most successful and outstanding classes in St Henry’s
high school history. I mean just look at the number
of colours blazers we have, and people with so many
outstanding talents, sportswomen and sportsmen of the
year, some of the smartest people we’ll ever know and
some of the most … creative people we’ll ever know.
The greatest thing about our grade is how diverse our
talents are: we have the most stubborn people, the most
competitive people, the shyest people, the best actors
and that wasn’t even on a stage, the best chess players,
the best debaters and some didn’t even do debating, the
best musicians, the best rappers who gave rap battles that
we’ll never forget and the best sports players.
W e also have some interesting people like those who
are super short, those who are super tall, those
who couldn’t stand losing an argument #Guilty. Those
who would always talk about success, those who always
20
slept in class, those who are too
salty, those who were always on
their “touch paper”, those whose
hypotheticals in business seemed
way too real, those who nearly
kicked us in our face with their
karate moves, those who were the
best storytellers, those who took
too many pictures and boomerangs,
those who say pavilion like civilian,
those who were the biggest sore
losers #TakeTheL, those who were
just too hardcore for school, those
who would make you laugh just by
them laughing,
T hose who would puff their chest
out for any given occasion,
those who thought they were better
than me in Fifa, those who know I beat them in Zulu,
those who would send memes in class, those who wrote
some really good stories, those who protected me from
animals #DogsCatsandEverything, those who were so
clumsy, those who want to be wrestlers, those who are
already successful business owners, those who always
complain and those who seemed wiser than the rest of
us.
H igh school was fun as Charles Dickens put it “it was
the best of times, it was the worst of times” but we
have turned a page in our life. We have moved from
childhood into adulthood and now is the time to find
our passion. It’s time to learn what we want to be if
we haven’t figured it out, or follow our dream if we
have. So parents, open up your wallets because studying
accounting, business, engineering, medicine or IT isn’t
cheap.
T
eachers, your passion and dedication has helped us
to realize that we have so much to offer the world.
After so many years at this school we have learned how
to learn and have been taught not so much what to
think but how to think and that is the measure of our
pioneering education. You taught us through the hottest
classrooms like room 14 #Room14needsaAC, you gave us
some of the most inspiring speeches, you went beyond
the call of duty in aiding us with our work and we’ll
never forget Mrs Howell’s laugh. Through the whole
journey you have been our rocks. So as we are about to
embark on another journey out of this school, we thank
you all for helping to mould us into respectable young
ladies and gentlemen who are ready for the big world.
A s we will soon start this new adventure in our
lives, some call being a grown up, I call the end of
freeloading, we will make mistakes.
W
e will miss deadlines and be late, two things we
are very experienced in, but all these things will
make us grow and change. Our mistakes will become as
important as our successes because they will define us.
T ables turn, bridges burn, you live and learn, and often
times it’s the journey that teaches you a lot about
your destination #Caption. So as we part ways equipped
with priceless knowledge and memories we embark on
a life sure to be filled with challenges and success. Street
poet and philosopher Drake once said “oh well I guess
you lose some and win some so long as the outcome is

income you know I want it all and then some” while the
idea of material success does influence our lives heavily I
ask that you follow your dreams and do what makes you
happy. Class strive to be the best version of yourself.
N ow at the end of our careers as students we have an
opportunity: now is our time to take on the world,
and to find and pursue our passions to quote “leave a
legacy.”
W illiam Shakespeare and also Channing Tatum, once
said “some are born great, some achieve greatness,
and some have greatness thrust upon them.” In life we
can’t count on being born great, or having greatness
thrust upon us, but always, always remember that the
opportunity to achieve greatness is within our grasp.

Speech
A T
s I stand before you today with a
heart filled with gratitude and love,
I still, yet again, find myself asking the
same question: where did all the time
go?
H ow is it possible to say goodbye
to the only thing we’ve ever known for the past 12
years?
W e often take for granted the constant smells,
touches, sounds and sights that we come into
contact with on a daily basis. But now, looking back,
these are some of the very few distinct memories that we
will cherish and take with us when we leave.
S
uch as: The sound of Mrs Vermulen’s high heels lurking
on the corridors, or the fact that you’ll be standing in
the middle of India in 2030 and you’ll know in your heart
it’s Mrs Howells. The cute nicknames Mrs Turk gives us,
makes it only evident we are her children, or Mr Brent’s
time limit to get to his class; don’t even think twice about
being even a second late or you’ll be threatened with
the most epic story you’ll be telling in your life. Or when
you’re singing in mass and hear someone one beat off
everyone else, you’ll surely know it’s Mr Schumann.
Or Mr de Pace’s famous words “you peasant”. Let’s
not forget the famous duo, the perfect combo entailing
giggles and gossip - Mrs Batho and Mrs Smith - friendship
goals if I can say the least. Or Mr Richards famous few
lines “take out your books and get ready to work.” “4
hours of sleep is enough” or “You Sir, do not know your
definitions”.
If we were to close our eyes, 5 years ago, we would
not know where to even begin imagining what life

“unsung heroes”. If there’s anything you take from today,
remember that to “leave a legacy” and to “achieve
greatness” is not to get money and recognition, it’s to
leave those with whom you cross paths with a little
more happiness and hope. Our time here as a grade will
not be remembered by academics, popularity, likes, or
favourites, but by our relationships. The kind of person
you were. These are legacies, the kind we must leave.

would be after school. Yet, here
we are, doing just that. The idea of
stepping foot out of St Henry’s doors,
letting go of what has consumed us
and stepping into a new chapter, is
somewhat frightening and hard to
wrap our heads around. But when
we look around and acknowledge
all the good memories we will be
taking with us, it seems to make the
goodbyes a lot easier.
ogether with “Okay guys, guys,
guys” Bradley Reddy, Sine’s punny
jokes, Joseph’s Whittey remarks and
Tristan’s voice of an angel, could you
really call this grade at St Henry’s the
class of 2018? No matter how small
your feet are or how big your ears,
no matter the colour of your skin, or right now, how big
your tears, no matter the tint of your hair or the way
you look/stare - you’ll quickly come to the conclusion
that we are all “da same da same” - credits to IEB for this
year’s English Poetry syllabus.
A
s our time together draws near to an end, I’d like to
thank my fellow Matric students, for our time together.
It was only 5 short years ago that we encountered one
another for the very first time. For some maybe longer,
for some maybe shorter, whatever the case, we have
reached the end and it’s time to leave. I stand in awe as
I place my eyes upon all that has been accomplished and
learnt during our time at St Henry’s. This enabled us to
get where we are currently seated today. When we leave
this place today, we say goodbye to all the daily, weekly
and annual routines. Some, we will refuse to remember
like the dreadful bleep tests during PE, or for some just
the thought of PE alone, and for others we will wish we
could relive like taking part in weekly sporting/cultural
activities or the excitement Derby Day brings.
I ’ve always loved the idea of learning and growing as a
person. And finding a school that offered me both, was
more than a blessing. St Henry’s provided a home for
everyone under its eaves; a place where we can express
our inner personalities and true colours without feeling
limited or judged. If I were to tell any of you “high school
is easy” you’d know I would be lying straight away.

O ur high school experience has been far
from perfect, but I can proudly say we
made it through a whole year without killing
one another. Finding the right group of friends
will undoubtably be your one way ticket to
getting through any situation. When you are
demotivated, they will motivate you. When you
cry, they will lend a shoulder for you to cry on
and when you are winning, they will praise you.
Honestly, you couldn’t ask for anything better in
your Matric year.
I thank each and every Matric pupil I’ve
encountered and come to know in the last 5
years. You all hold such great potential and will
always have played a huge role in my individual
existence. I thank all who challenged me,
supported me, fought with me and those who
have grown with me. Without your contribution
I would not be half the person I am today. I am
grateful for my Matric class of 2018. And you
should be grateful too. We have come across
too many wonderful memories to ever put our
differences above the good we have endured.
S aying goodbye to high school and St Henry’s
had always been classed as something that
existed but would never actually materialize.
The truth is - we have reached the end, and that
means a goodbye is shortly underway. However,
no matter what the second, minute, day, week
or even year, I don’t think I’ll ever quite be ready
to say goodbye.

vincite,” “conquer all difficulties.”
S t Henry’s is more than just a regular school, it is a
nurturing home that has guided and shaped us into the
young men and women we are today. It is here where we
have learnt to read and write, differentiate between right
and wrong, the skills needed to manage our conflicts and
decisions, the ability to control our future, to respect our
elders and peers, to be disciplined, kind and forgiving. I
cannot express my gratitude enough. Each year we have
learnt valuable life lessons and skills, as well as discovered
a deeper insight about ourselves. I would like to extend
a great deal of thanks to our second parents also known
as our teachers, for dealing with our nonsense and for all
your constant hard work and devotion, to ensure that we
are prepared for examinations. You have not only taught
us the knowledge of a subject but have also provided us
with moral education and social responsibility. Thank you
to my fellow prefects and head team for your constant
support in me and for upholding the school rules and
completing your duties with zeal. St Henry’s has even
furthered our spirituality and strengthened our bond with
God.
M ost importantly I would like to thank my very special
matric class of 2018, for all the amazing memories
you have provided me with. From every school camp to

Awards Ceremony
5 December 2018
G ood evening Your Eminence, Cardinal Wilfrid
Napier, our school chaplain, Fr Sean Mullin, our
Guest of Honour, Mr Taukabong, the Chairman of St
Henry’s Board of Governors, Mr Cooke, Mr Campbell,
representing the Marist Schools Council, members of
the Board of Governors and their spouses, guests, Mr
Ackerman, Mrs Vermeulen, Mrs Venter, Mr Davey, Mrs
Burns and Mrs Francis, the staff of St Henry, parents and
pupils of St Henry’s.
It is once more my honour to stand here this evening and
address you, an honour heightened by the awareness
that we find ourselves about to enter into 2019 and the
90th anniversary of the school. An anniversary year such
as the one we will celebrate next year provides us with a
moment in time to celebrate what has been achieved, to
give thanks for all of those who made these achievements
possible, to take stock of where we are presently and
to look towards the future as we proceed towards
the centenary of the school in 2029. We will have the
opportunity to do this at various times next year when
we celebrate and commemorate 90 years of St Henry’s
Marist College being here where we are seated today –
the ‘school on the hill’ as it was sometimes described.
I t is also therefore appropriate that this year we have
launched our vision and our master plan for the school
and many of you were present in May this year when the
launch was held. We have of course made some small,
28
preliminary steps with the vision and plan, refurbishing
the pre-primary and tuckshop space, as well as installing
new cricket nets. Our architects are now busy with the
next steps of the plan, specifically developing designs
for the envisaged chapel, the reconfiguration of certain
spaces that are necessary as a result and the extension
and upgrade of the amphitheatre, so that it has an
enhanced capacity for events and functions and an all-
weather capability. The chapel is a very necessary project
since in a school such as ours, a properly designed and
implemented chapel is a vital. It is the heart of a religious
school such as St Henry’s and our attitude towards making
it a reality must be in line with what we espouse as our
Catholic-Marist ethos. It is undeniable that this ethos,
this identity, gives a school such as St Henry’s something
that is special. A story is told of a Catholic
school where the children were lined up
in the dining hall for lunch. At the head of
the table was a large pile of apples. One
of the nuns had written a note and stuck
it on the apple tray. It read, ‘Take only
one. God is watching’. Moving further
along the lunch line, at the other end of
the table was a large pile of chocolate
biscuits. One child whispered to another,
‘Take as many biscuits as you want. God
is watching the apples.’ In the same way,
we firmly believe that God and his saint,
Marcellin Champagnat, watch over St
Henry’s!
W e are also looking beyond these
immediate plans to the next
steps in the Master Plan and how they
align with our vision for St Henry’s in
time to come. Key among these will be

within the school, the necessity of a

building which would have the necessary
laboratories and facilities specifically devoted
to these subject areas. Naturally, as we
undertake these developments we would
seek to further develop spaces and facilities
for sports and culture. As we do so, we are
looking for the means to partner with a
community that lacks the resources we have
at our disposal and to form a collaborative
relationship with them; thus truly living out
the Marist ideal of mission. More about that
at another time.
In linking the Master Plan with a vision of
education in all its spheres for St Henry’s, we seek to
and to care for here at St Henry’s. It is our responsibility
to nurture this hope and promise and to provide our

D istinguished guests, ladies and
gentlemen – I welcome all of you
to our annual Preparatory School Awards’ Ceremony.
An evening of this nature isn’t just an elaborate excuse for
the members of the teaching body to get dressed up in
all their finery, but rather a chance to reflect on a year of
terrific endeavour, wonderful aspiration and impressive
achievement.

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the
world to himself. Therefore, all progress surely depends
on the unreasonable man.

T his quote is attributed to George Bernard Shaw and
calls for us to adopt the mind-set of the unreasonable
man, because in order to effect change in the future, we
have to think a little bit differently – in other words we
need to be somewhat ‘unreasonable’.
2 018 has been another very busy year with many
changes across the College’s phases. It has been an
exciting year where change has become the new norm.
I am of the opinion, that across the College we boast
an innovative leadership team which thrives on change,
diversity and progress. This team, steered by Dr Leech, are
focussed on accelerating learning, using current theory
and evidence to improve our overall professional practise.
The teaching and learning which we have witnessed at St
Henry’s Marist College in 2018 and are yet to witness in
years to come, is of an excellent standard. Furthermore,
the opportunities being afforded to our pupils young and
old is of the highest quality and meets the diverse range
of learning needs.

P ersonally, I think that we need to
welcome this unreasonable man
that George Bernard Shaw references
in his quote, into our schools and
thank him, for throughout history,
major changes in technology have
profoundly shaped our world,
whether it was the introduction
of farming which lead to our cities
being formed, writing which lead to
printing or the pursuit of supersonic
flight which lead to space travel. We
now stand at a precipice – that of
the synergy between mankind and
technology and future generations
will live in a world that is more
connected in almost every way.
A s a member of the so-called Generation X that being
described by demographers as people born from
between the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s, my forty or
so years on this planet have seen remarkable change, but
that pales into insignificance when I think what the World
may look like in the year 2050. What that World would
look like to the pupils seated here tonight and indeed
what that World would look like to the new pupils who
will be joining St Henry’s in Grade 000 next year. One
thing is for certain, they will most definitely celebrate the

t is our job as teachers to open up a new World to
children – whether it is discovering the joy of a good
book, the wonder of science, the thrill of competition or
the pride in a challenge overcome, there is no task greater
than preparing our children for a World yet to become
a reality. We have to prepare your children for a shifting
reality and to do this we need to create a certain mind-
set. We need to, I believe encourage our pupils to adopt
a growth mind-set. One that is always open to new ideas
and open to change … understanding that learning is a
life-long and contiguous journey; one where the status
quo is always shifting, and no single truth exists.
C
hildren today, more than ever, need to be able to
adapt to a fast-paced and ever-changing World.
Staying in the past simply is not an option. Of course, we
can facilitate this as teachers and as parents, but it is the
children themselves who will be taken on this journey. Our
generation are likely to be
bystanders just as our parents’
generation often appears
now – I think of my mother
stabbing at the screen on her
smartphone and bemoaning
all the time people spend on
this “face-space” nonsense!
The skills we teach therefore
need to equip children with
the expertise to unravel their
own destiny – whatever that
may be. Problem-solving,
resilience, planning, the
ability to adapt – the teaching
of these skills need to take
their place alongside reading,
writing and maths.

I n-fact let’s talk about Maths – the subject so many
of us remember from our High School years and not
always for the best reasons. And here I am speaking

from personal experience. In 2016, along with five
other independent schools in KZN, St Henry’s joined
the ‘Shared Assessment Initiative’. This collaborative
learning philosophy has continued through the years and
has grown to a staggering 18 participating independent
schools in 2018. The assessment initiative is a voluntary
one and the results from the papers written at Grade 7
level are intended for each school to use to inform their
academic objectives. Our Grade 7s have written ‘shared
assessment papers’ for Mathematics, English, Afrikaans
and IsiZulu since its inception and both our teachers and
pupils have benefited in the form of development cluster
meetings which has in-turn led to the development of
an assessment that links to the sector’s commitment to
high academic standards and collaborative engagement
among professionals. Through our involvement in the
SATs process, we have been able to gather empirical achievement despite the ever changing social, learning
data, analyse the results, identify gaps in our approach and emotional needs that we are confronted with on
a daily basis. The staff team remain aware of areas to
to teaching these subjects and formulate strategies to
develop, and through reflective practise, address these

itself.’ With this in mind I would like, on behalf of the community for some time. In her absence thank you to

whether on educational excursions, participating in
cultural activities or representing the school at sporting
fixtures. You can all be relied upon to represent the school
with pride and dignity.
S omeone for whom I have a great deal of respect,
recently spoke about the importance of the word
‘Wow’ when working with children and I couldn’t
agree more – you guys ‘WOW’ me and all your teachers
every day. I’m not just talking about the big stuff – the
wonderful productions, the charity drives, the sporting
events and so much more, I’m talking about the little
things. Each year I look back at what you have achieved
and how far you have all come. Whilst, not all of you
are going to be formally recognised at this prize giving,
I know that you have all progressed so very much, both
educationally and socially. I am proud of each and every
one of you. It is critical to remember, that no matter
what, we celebrate all the achievements of those in our
community, and support them to be the best that they can
be. It is important to keep on learning and continue to
develop individual talents while learning to get on with
others, problem solve, be self-motivated and inquisitive.
36
A t the beginning of this term I
had the opportunity to address
the Grade 7 pupil body at their
annual dinner. This evening I would
like to remind them of a few salient
points.
A
t the core of any successful
educational experience is the
virtue of integrity. I encourage
you to make the right choices
for yourselves. Knowing and
understanding your needs as a
pupil is going to be the key to your
success in High School. Surrounding
yourself with a supportive network
is also crucial … your family and
the friends you choose will become
that network and it’s much easier to
face new challenges when you have
a strong support team. If you make
integrity your core value, you will
be able to stay focused on your goals.
T he transition to High School is not an easy one, but with
a positive attitude, a strong work ethic, supportive
network, you will be able to face challenges and confront
them head-on with confidence. It is important to take it
one day at a time and to ask for help when you need it.
Remember that life doesn’t usually follow the plans you
lay out for yourself. You will all experience the highs and
lows of life - the difficult and the easy. Your true success
will be defined by how you handle both of these times.
R alph Waldo Emerson said, ‘Do not follow where the
path may lead. But instead, go where there is no path
and leave a trail’.
B efore I wrap up, just a final vote of thanks to Ian from
Mustard Seed and the staff team who was responsible
for the co-ordination of this evenings’ awards ceremony
– Mr Rehman, Mrs Peters-Newman, Mrs Fuller and Mrs
Mundy-Castle. Thank-you also to the hard working ladies
in the advancement office and Mr Barraclough and his
maintenance team for their hard work.
In conclusion to all parents and
caregivers, I thank you for your
passionate support of all matters
St Henry’s and for giving us the
opportunity to work in partnership
with you to give the greatest gift of
all, for all of our children – the gift
of education.
I extend to all members of our
school community my very best
wishes for a peaceful Christmas and
prosperous new-year.
God bless.

Awards Guest
Speaker
Gerald Maidens
G ood evening Dr Leech, Mr. Ackerman,
distinguished guests, staff of St Henry’s,
parents and especially pupils. It is a privilege
and an honour to have been asked to attend this evening’s
prize giving ceremony; I thank the St Henry’s family for
the opportunity to come back home once again.
T
onight is a time for when trophies are awarded, where
prizes are given for achievements, where exceptional
work is recognised and rewarded, and rightly so. It is an
achievement worth recognition when pupils do achieve
well and excel. I wish to congratulate all of you who will
receive prizes tonight, who have excelled throughout the
year, who have given your best and got the rewards you
deserve. But let us not forget those pupils among us tonight
who have worked very hard but are maybe not in the
top group, the children here tonight who are consistently
giving of their best besides schoolwork sometimes being
a challenge. To those of you who are always there, who
carry on despite the challenges, I say to you, well done. Be
very proud of your achievements and keep going.
S uccess is a word that can be spoken about in many
different ways. If we sit back and honestly reflect on
what it means in society today, I believe we would come
to the conclusion that it is how rich you are in terms of
money, what car you drive, how big your house is, how
expensive is the wine you serve. In school terms, it is the
people who get 8 or 9, sometimes even 10, distinctions
in their matric year. Anything other than these things,
means that we haven’t arrived yet. Really? I question
that. Maybe I question it because of my upbringing and
current family life, maybe I question it because of the
school I attended, maybe I question it because I work with
children for whom academics is a challenge
(for some, the simple things in life are a
challenge – dressing, eating etc). You see,
for me, success is measured by truly looking
at yourself and those around you, by being
very honest with yourself about where you
are, asking yourself how have I worked,
did I give it my best and did I work because
it is the right thing to do. I wish to share
with you a couple of stories of my life as a
teacher and therapist. When I taught grade
7 here at St Henry’s, I was very nervous for
my first ever parent meeting. I had to meet
a dad and show him a report where a child
had achieved a 31% average for the first
term. I wondered what to say; thankfully
I placed the report in front of the boy and
2018 ST HENRY’S MARIST COLLEGE
ACADEMICS
his dad and waited. The father
looked at the mark, turned to
his son and said, “well done
ACADEMICS
son. You have improved 2%
on your last report. Keep up
the hard work; I am proud
of you.” At the end of the
year, the boy passed his grade
7…… what an achievement!
A month ago I had to make
a very hard phone call to a
mother of a young boy with
severe learning problems and
tell her that her boy needed
to move schools and go to a
specialised place of education
and that I could not offer
him or her any help – he was
unruly at school, breaking
games, disrupting lessons and being a harm to the other
children and teachers. The mom would not hear of it and
when we met later that week at his school, she said to
me, “Gerald, my boy has improved like you don’t know
since starting at his school a week ago. This week he said
goodbye to us in the car (he did not speak normally), and
when he comes home since starting at this school with
his teachers and you, we only have one tantrum every
second to third day; before, we would have big fights
every day, all afternoon after school. He is happy, and he
is smiling and laughing at home. He is at a place where he
can grow.” I saw him last Friday, and from him spending
his day throwing furniture around his class, he was able
to colour an entire picture appropriately and sit for lunch
with his class pupils. Remarkable! What do these 2 stories
tell us? It is how we look at our children and see them
for who they are that matters; it is about providing them
with the right environment for who they are for them
to grow and flourish. In both cases, comparing them to
academic geniuses, making them fit into some way of life
that is not them, would not have worked. Seeing them
for who they are, making them work hard and be focused
on improving, but for where they are, saw both of them
reach success.
W hen I was wondering what to talk about tonight, I
was given some guidance from Mr Ackerman about
where we are essentially going as a race of people in our
world at present. I have often wondered about what kind
of world we are creating, the pressure we are putting on
ourselves in the work place, and the enormous pressure we
are putting on these young children sitting
before us. Our world is travelling forward
at a rapid rate with advancements,
betterments, improvements. We boast
as a people about having the latest
designs, the fastest cars, the fanciest cell
phone or technological device. If we
look at the latest buzzwords around us,
we are entering or have entered the 4th
industrial revolution, where artificial
intelligence will take over many things
and make us better. I wonder about that.
For those who do not know, I work as
a child Occupational Therapist, working
with children of varying ages and abilities,
as well as having the pleasure of travelling
our country and Africa to spend time with
37

ACADEMICS
teachers and parents on how best we can develop our
children for their lives. Throughout all of this there is
one common theme that keeps hitting me in the face as
the greatest need in our world right now – TIME. It is
something that the advancing world consistently ignores,
yet so deeply craves. It is something that technology
cannot give, real personal contact and time. Time also
allows us to be who we are, to develop as we should,
to bond as we must, and to learn and share as we ought
to. Too often, the 4th industrial revolution has a way for
us, the path to success, the formula, the algorithm, the
mapped out answers. Really? I want to share with you a
story that I found recently:
O ne day, a teacher entered the classroom and
announced a surprise test. Hearing this, all the
children got nervous, got anxious and started thinking
about what would come up in the test. The teacher gave
out the question paper, with the front side facing down.
After handing out the papers to all the children, he asked
them to turn the page and start the test. To everyone’s
surprise, there were no questions in the test paper. There
was just a black dot in the middle of the page. Everyone
was startled and looked at the teacher in awe. The teacher
told the students:
“I want you to write a few lines about what you
see on the paper.”
A ll the children were stunned,
but since they didn’t have a
choice, they started writing the
answer.
O nce everyone was finished
with the test, the teacher
collected all the answer sheets,
and started reading out each
answer aloud in front of
the whole class. Without an
exception, all the children had
written about the black dot,
mentioning about its position,
size etc. After reading out all the
answers, the teacher addressed
the children and told them:
“None of you will be given
marks for this test. I just
wanted you to think about
something. All of you wrote
about the black dot. No one

ACADEMICS
paper. The same thing happens in our
lives too. We all have a white paper
to observe and learn from, yet we
always focus on the dark spots. We
have so many reasons to celebrate –
our parents, our school, friends, good
health, a satisfactory job, a child’s
smile, the miracles we witness every
day, and so on.
However, we simply limit our
horizons by focusing on just the
dark spots – our disappointments,
our frustrations, our challenges,
our fears and anxieties, things that
bother us, people that wronged us,
etc. In our day-to-day lives, we tend to take so
many good things for granted, and focus our
energy on insignificant dot-like failures and
disappointments.”
Though these dark spots are quite small as
compared to the good things that we have in our
lives, yet they bother our minds and do not let us
think positively.
Take your eyes away from the black dots of your
life. Try and focus on the brighter side of life and
let positivity govern your thoughts.
S o you see, for me, the place we are at right now is
bigger and more than the changes and advancements.
It is about us getting back to basics, to getting back to
what we really are and who we really are meant to be.
On the school badge you wear, that so many before you

Orientation Excursion
Our new Grade 8’s took part
in an Orientation Excursion
to Camp Solomon from the
15 - 17 January 2018. Our new
High school teenagers began as
a bundle of nerves, however it
soon progressed into a trip of fun,
excitement and new friendships.
Many of our Grade 8’s had never
camped before, let alone did they
know how to put up their own
tent. They learnt very quickly!
Despite average temperatures
of about 35 degrees, a great
time was had by all. They took
part in various activities to
help develop their leadership
skills, responsibility and most
importantly to bond as a grade.
The Grade 8’s returned to school
feeling rather exhausted but
happily initiated into the start of
their High School Career.

Markets of Warwick
HIGH

HIGH
T he ‘My Design’ team took part in an excursion to
Markets of Warwick on the 19 October. This is run
by a company called Asiye eTafuleni who ensure that
our learners are kept safe and well-informed during the
course of the trip.

T he idea of the innovate project is to take learners

out of their comfort zone and prepare them for 21st
century learning. The theme this year was eThekwini, so
Markets of Warwick fit these criteria well due to it being
in the heart of eThekwini.

O ur Grade 8’s learnt a wealth of knowledge visiting

the nine different markets. Some were brave enough
to taste a piece of cow head in the bovine market. The
girls went bead shopping and many enjoyed tasting a local
steamed bread resembling a vetkoek. The most thrilling
was the Muthi market where learners got to appreciate
the fact that not all healing derives from modern day
medicine.

I t was important for our leaners to realise that many

people living in our community do not shop at Checkers
or Woolworths. Many were shocked to learn that Markets
of Warwick turn over is approximately 1 billion rand per
annum in comparison to Pavilion which turns estimated
figures of 1.5 billion rand a year. This goes to show that
informal trade in eThekwini is still a cornerstone of survival.

Grade 11 Pennington leadership course

HIGH

O n the 19 June the grade 11 year of 2018 set out on
our 3 day trip to Pennington Beach. A quaint resort
within walking distance of the beach. Despite it being
cold and rainy at times, the weather was beautiful and
didn’t make the experience any different.
W e were really made to feel at home, with the
comfortable accommodation in both log cabins
and houses, the homely meals of which there was always
enough, and the TVG guides who made the world of
difference. They made us feel safe and as if we were
immediately a part of their family. We knew that if we
had any problem, even if we had scraped our little toe,
they would be there. They instilled a sense of enthusiasm
in every event of the day, even being woken up at 6am
was made to feel exciting. I cannot thank them enough
for helping shape the leadership of our grade and for
making Pennington a trip to remember.

was easy for some yet incredibly daunting for others.
However, with the support of our team members
encouraging us from below, we were able to make it to
the top. We did other activities such as obstacle courses,
canoeing and ziplining, which all increased our leadership
and strength of character.
W e were forced to communicate with those that we
never socialise with and through this we created
new bonds that will last us for the rest of our high school
careers. We realised that there is more to people and
who they are in the school environment and that if put in
the right situation, even those you do not know will give
you guidance and understanding.
P ennington was an opportunity to grow as a grade,
which was grabbed with both hands. We tackled new
tasks with great confidence and courage knowing that
we would overcome with the support of our peers. We

T wo topics were assigned to the learners. Half of them

engaged in water catchment management undertook
various tests along the Siyaya and Amanzimyama Rivers.

Fatima to name a few.
Although, the results were not always in our favour, they
are actually not a true reflection of the immense talent
that our St Henry’s girls actually have. The losses that our
girls endured, were mere narrow losses by a point in the
last seconds of the games. The games were competitive,
seat-grabbing and eye-catching the whole way through
and our girls should be proud of their achievements
throughout the season.
It was a sad farewell to Awongiwe Xuma who played her
last 1st team games before ending her Outdoor Netball
season in her Grade 12 year.

Our girls waterpolo started with a great splash in the
third term! We continue to play in the ‘A’ league and we
faced some tough opposition this year.
Congratulations to our junior side for beating some
strong opponents such as Kloof, Thomas More College,
Durban Girls’ High, Westville Girls’ High and Scottburgh.
Our senior girls must be congratulated for their draw to
Danville and win against Westville Girls’ High.
Our girls have faced some chilly early morning training
and they must be commended on their endurance and
passion for this sport. Special mention must be made to
our matric girls, many of whom have been the backbone
of girls’ polo for many years. This group of matrics have
been an exemplary example of dedication to the sport
and they will be very missed next year. We hope to see
some of these girls representing their tertiary institutions
in this sport next year.

• Switch off electronic devices when they are not in use.
• When visiting a beach or park, pick up any litter in
the area.
