From our youngest Foundation Phase champions to our senior stars, our Staatsies have once again proved that the power of words can move mountains!
Con Spirito Nationals at Leeuwenhof Akademie, Foundation Phase and Grade 4 – 7 – Learners proudly brought home national wins and top 5 placings.
Artistatue Nationals at Wierda Park – Our speakers dazzled with 1st places, 2nd places, and several more top 5 finishes.
Every speech, every word, every performance echoed the courage, talent, and hard work of our Staatsies, and we could not be prouder!
A heartfelt thank you to our incredible coaches. Your guidance, passion, and dedication have shaped these young voices into national winners.
Staatsies, YES!
