Waterfall College celebrates its Class of 2022 Speech Day is a highlight on many a school calendar and Waterfall College is no exception. On Friday, 14 October, the Waterfall Schools community bid an emotional farewell to its Class of 2022. “To those students who joined Waterfall College in January 2018, thank you for your contribution to developing so much in the school,” said Principal Bryony Green. “As you look back on the last five years, I hope that you can see the progress you have made alongside the incredible changes we have seen in our campus and school.”

Congratulations to each and every one of our Matrics who have tackled the years’ challenges with verve and determination. Special mention must go to Jessica Meier, who received the The Kriel Family Trophy for Dux of School, and Aphiwe Mdluli, who was named Proxime Accessit to Dux of School. We loved being able to celebrate our Matrics’ strengths and achievements and wish them the very best as they head into their final examinations. In the words of guest speaker Reverend Dianne Pickford, Chaplain of St John’s DSG, “we all face challenges, but we hope to bounce back better, not bitter”.

This year’s event was especially poignant as we said a formal farewell to Mr Gerald Delport, who retires at the end of this year after 56 years of teaching. Mr Delport is loved by staff and students alike and will be sorely missed, but his contribution to the education of so many will not be forgotten!
