The Grade Two’s collected Easter eggs this term as their outreach. There were many Easter eggs so kindly donated that it became difficult to resist eating them as they were stored in our classrooms. What fun it was seeing the faces of the two ladies from Fish Hoek Lions Club when they saw ALL the Easter eggs we had collected![Read More…]

We are so privileged to have come so far and are grateful for all the blessings we have at Sun Valley.[Read More…]

The Grade Two children were SUPER excited for their assembly! There were beautiful butterflies fluttering about and cute penguins waddling around! Our assembly helped us realise that just like these creatures have a plan for their life, there is a plan for our lives. We left with a sense of how special each child really is. I’m sure the Moms[Read More…]

Just when we thought we had seen all  the cute penguins at Boulders, a visit to the art room proved us wrong! We saw some very cute penguin pictures being created and soon realised that the art room had turned into a penguin colony! We can’t wait to see the finished product!
