Hi Colleagues.

June is a remarkable month especially for a history event back in 1976, Soweto Uprising which is very significant to us as it was an Uprising related to Education out of all riots.

The June 16 1976 Uprising that began in Soweto and spread countrywide profoundly changed the socio-political landscape in South Africa. Events that triggered the uprising can be traced back to policies of the Apartheid government that resulted in the introduction of the Bantu Education Act in 1953. The rise of the Black Consciousness Movement (BCM) and the formation of South African Students Organisation (SASO) raised the political consciousness of many students while others joined the wave of anti-Apartheid sentiment within the student community. When the language of Afrikaans alongside English was made compulsory as a medium of instruction in schools in 1974, black students began mobilizing themselves. On 16 June 1976 between 3000 and 10 000 students mobilized by the South African Students Movement's Action Committee supported by the BCM marched peacefully to demonstrate and protest against the government’s directive. The march was meant to culminate at a rally in Orlando Stadium.

I hope you colleagues are aware that we have a Physical Science Lab with all resources that can enrich any child that needs this facility. Educators concerned should make arrangements with our Laboratory Educator for your students. WHEN USEFUL SERVICES ARE BROUGHT TO YOU, MAKE USE OF THEM TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF OUR LEARNERS THROUGH EDUCATION. That might open more doors for even much greater things!
