We are very excited to announce that Siphephelo Mabona, a Grade 10 Dramatic Arts learner, came 3^rd in the #Straight2Camera competition held by Curro. In the first round of the competition, from more than 200 entries, she made it to the Top 15.  All Curro schools across the country enter learners in this challenging competition.

At the #Straight2Camera Monologue festival Awards Ceremony 2022, held on Friday, 2 September, Siphephelo was awarded 3^rd place overall.  This is a phenomenal achievement as this means she was placed third in the country. This has earned her a special trophy and a set of ‘Theatre Wings’, a prestigious award created and handed over by Curro Head Office. This demonstrates she can go against the best, as she is extremely talented. Well done Siphephelo, on an amazing achievement. We are so proud of you!  You are a true ambassador of culture as well as of St Dominics Newcastle.

Head of High School, Ms Needha Hurrichand with Siphephelo Mabona and Head of Dramatic Arts, Pragashini Dhewlall.
