Academics | Thursday, 29 July 2010

The following pupils from Fairmont High School took part in the English Olympiad.

Well done to them.

The Blood Clinic

General News | Thursday, 29 July 2010

On Thursday we had another successful “Bleeding Day” at Fairmont. The Western Province Blood Clinic visited Fairmont for the quarterly clinic. We had 50 units donated. Due to illnesses or scheduled sport matches some learners unfortunately could not donate on this day. I would like to thank staff and pupils for their contribution to this worthy cause.

Alcohol And Abuse Awareness Campaign

Counselling News | Thursday, 29 July 2010

Our Life Orientation department has been busy this past week with an alcohol and teenage drinking awareness campaign.  As part of the programme they invited two speakers from the Durbanville Quadraplegic Home who delivered moving speeches of their involvement in alcohol abuse and their present circumstances.

This had an alarming effect on many of our pupils resulting in discussions and consultations with counselors.  It is our intent and vision to enable our pupils to make informed decisions about their futures.
