    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    During this holy period of both Ramadan and Lent we pray for our families, for our children and for our communities to be united in sharing and caring for others. We are extremely proud of our students at Windsor High as they take the initiative to lead various projects, for their participation in activities of the school and to simply be kind and respectful. We are proud of our students who report to their teachers when they witness negative behavior or are victims of negative behavior by their peers. We sense a positive shift in our school community as no staff member and more students have zero tolerance for disrespect and negative behavior.

    Congratulations:

    To Azari Fredericks for her selection into the WP Baseball team.

    To our Debating team, Aaliyah Parsley, Rujeko Masimbiti, Christin Frans and Shaneez Mutseura for being the runners up in a special competition of 4 high schools. Shaneez is the team captain and president who achieved a perfect score in the final round.

    To Mikhail Poole, Live Ngalmane, Mikaylin Richards, Zaarah Davids, Tamsyn Van Harte and Lisakhanya Gcaza for being selected into the Table View District team to participate in the WP Athletics Championships. To Coach Toefy for being selected to manage the u15 team.

    Academics

    As we approach week 7, we have identified the need to have extra lessons in Mathematics for grade 10. This will be held weekly on a Monday, for identified students. It commences this week. It will be held in room 1 from 15:10 to 16:10. This is compulsory for the identified students. The same for grade 8 math intervention. This will be held on a Tuesday and Thursday during 2nd break in room 7.

    Parents, by now, all math students must be registered on Siyavula and should be practicing daily. Grade 12 parents are reminded that 7th period is compulsory. Attached again for your perusal is the Time Table. All learners in all grades should be working at home for 2 hours daily in preparation for the March Test Series..

    School Fee Exemption Forms

    Due to Ramadan and Lent we will not have a parent meeting to distribute the forms. Your child may collect the form from the bursar’s office on Monday. The form with all attached documents must be returned by Friday, 20th March 2026. If you need any clarity you may email the school.

    We wish all our families and staff a productive week ahead. We pray for the safety and protection of the Windsor family. En AvanteKind Regards

    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    We have had a bumper week of activity while simultaneously ensuring a strong week of academics. Congratulations to our class of 2026 for organizing an extremely successful Valentines Day program. Thank you to the Grade 12 team of register educators. A special shout out must go to Ms De Kock for her leading role in managing this event.

    The debating team participated in their first formal debate and emerged the victors against an unbeaten South Peninsula High team. Well done to the team made up of Leah Kannemeyer, Tyler Adams, Elam Mpondonqi and Tyler Prinsloo. We also thank Mr Daniel, our teacher in charge. We are part of the Tores foundation debate Club and thank Coach Josef for his guidance.

    The Inter- Zonal Athletics competition took place this weekend and we congratulate all our athletes who participated in this competition. The Volleyball teams had their first friendly games against Rylands High this week as part of their pre-season training. Netball training has commenced. The Marching Band and the Eco club continue to thrive. The Christian and Muslim societies as well. We congratulate all our readers who received awards from Exclusive Books at the “Reading is Kwaai” prize giving at Cavendish Square. We thank Mr Nigel Mortley our mobile librarian for this initiative that has now become an annual tradition. We are proud to announce that our top reader for 2025 is Skyla Valentine. Well done Skyla!!

    We encourage all students to get involved in the after school program whether it is a sport, cultural club and / or society. The RCL has completed all their elections and their leaders Sharon Mashonga and Perucy Sotyatyo, represented the school at the Education district workshop for RCL Leaders. We are proud of you and of all our students who are involved in positive activities at the school. Keep serving with kindness, care and respect.

    This communication also serves to inform the Windsor family that the school governing body has applied to the SAP to do a search and seizure for illegal substances and weapons. Warrant Officer Manyahke, the school’s liaison officer, has informed the school that this will be done randomly. We will not be informed of when it will take place. The reason why this is being done is to ensure that the school remains a place of safety. We are a drug and weapon free zone. Cigarettes, vapes, weed are examples of illegal substances. Pepper spray, pocket knives, sharp objects, lighters are examples of illegal weapons.

    “It takes a village to raise a child“

    We appeal to our parents that collect their children from school to report to us any inappropriate behavior that is seen when students are dismissed at the end of the day. Report it immediately so that we can deal with this display of disrespect. As said before the overwhelming majority of Windsor High students are respectful, we are working hard with a few students to teach them what respect looks like and that they have to take accountability for their disrespect and the negative public image they portray. A child is taught values of respect at home, yet as a staff we have to spend far too much time dealing with disrespect before school, in the classroom and after school. Thank you to those parents/guardians who collaborate and support the staff in this societal issue that we are forced to manage.

    The week ahead becomes the start of a very holy period for both Christians and Muslims as we approach the start of Lent and Ramadan. We pray for our communities and the Windsor family during this holy period. En AvantKind Regards

    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    This past week our students enjoyed the Inter – School Athletic Meeting at Green Point Stadium and the grade 8 team had a lovely family social day. Thank you to all our staff, parents and students involved in the planning, preparation and participation. Thank you, especially to our parents and service providers for all the donations received.

    The captains of the Athletic team, Tyler Jones, Mika Petersen, Vice Captains, Aneeq Cassiem and Tamsyn Van Harte together with all the athletes must be congratulated for their performance at the Inter-School Athletic meeting held at Green Point Stadium. Windsor High was placed in fifth position amongst 12 other competing schools. Coach Toefy must be commended for preparing the team so well. Thank you Sir for all the sacrifices and your diligence. We are proud of you and the Windsor Athletics team. Thank you to Ms Hanslo for your guidance, support to coach and the team and for your excellent leadership in this portfolio. To the supporting staff and officials thank you for going the extra mile in ensuring our athletes and spectators were taken care of on the day. Team work remains dream work!

    As with the Athletics, our grade 8 team of register educators under the helm of Ms Mally planned a wonderful social event for our grade 8 families. Lots of fun was had by all. Thank you to Ms Jafta and the estate team, Ms Arendse and Ms Mosavel for the support provided on the day. Once again team work!

    Valentines Day Fundraiser

    On Friday, 13th February the Class of 2026 will be hosting a Valentines show in the Main school hall during interval. Students may come dressed in casual wear at a cost of R20-00 and those dressed in uniform will pay R10-00. This payment is compulsory for all students. All students will have free entry to the show.

    Mathematics and Math Literacy Assessment

    On the same day as above all students will write a formal assessment. The assessment will be written in the morning at 08:30. Lesson 1 and 2 will follow before we have the interval / Valentines Show. Lesson 3 and 4 will continue after the show. Students must ensure that they have their notebooks and pens as teaching/learning remains the key focus of the day. Attached is information to ensure that each grade 8 and 9 student is registered with Siyavula.

    Parent Support before and after school

    There is a saying that goes something like this: ” it takes a village to raise a child “. We appeal to you, our parents, to report any inappropriate behavior that you witness outside of the school site immediately on the day so that we can nip it in the bud. Let’s have the spirit of “Your child is my child”. Educators and support staff cannot be everywhere. If you witness students smoking, tell them to stop!

    Parents and guardians engage with your child, communicate with them, talk to them about respect and appropriate behavior. They have a lifetime to be adults and to do the things adults do in the safety of their home. When they are in their school uniform they represent themselves, their family and most importantly the school.

    We welcome on board in the Afrikaans Department, Mr Abrahams who will be a substitute educator for the term. We wish him well for this term and warmly welcome him into the Windsor family.

    As educators we approach week 5 determined to ensure excellence in our delivery of the curriculum content to our students. As parents/guardians ensure that learning is consolidated at home. Grade 8 to 11 should be spending at least one hour at home doing homework, revising and practicing math. Grade 12 at least 2 hours daily. As students you should be focused in class and co-operating with your subject teacher.

    Normal school dismissal times for the week ahead and we appeal that all students are punctual. School commences at 08:00 and if your child is going to be late please inform us.

    In closing, we pray that the week ahead will be a productive one for the Windsor family. En Avante

    Kind Regards

    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    We have come to the end of the academic year of 2025. What a year it has been! We have been so blessed as a school community that we can only look back at this year with gratitude. Thank you parents, thank you staff and thank you to all our students.

    Nelson Mandela said: “It always seems impossible until it is done.” This year has been a grueling one for all. It is now time to get into a slower rhythm as we wrap up the school year. The final results are in the process of validation and this coming week the final verification for promotion and progression will be done by the Education District. We release the results of the grades 8 to 11 to you our parents/guardians via the Prosum App on the 10th December at 11am. The grade 12 results will be released on Tuesday, 13th January at 10am at school.

    The pre-liminary results show us that the GET phase has done exceptionally well even before any condonations were generated by the system. We are extremely proud of our grade 8 and especially our grade 9 students for this achievement. A clear effort was made in term 4. Well done parents and students.

    In the FET phase however, we have a larger group of learners who did not meet the minimum pass requirements for grades 10 and 11. This means that we have a number of students who will need to repeat the grade. Those learners who have been diligent and worked consistently throughout the year have performed extremely well. We are very proud of your achievements.

    We will await for the district to verify the results. In our final communication for the year, we will release the Top 20 Merit list.

    Reflection of the past week

    Ms Terri Roodt of the Drama Experience facilitated the leadership workshop for our class captains and RCL members during this past week. She provided feedback on how wonderful our learners co-operated during the session. Thank you to all the RCL members and class captains who attended. We are extremely proud of you.

    On Saturday, we welcomed our new grade 8 learners for 2026, the class of 2030, to our school building and into the Windsor family. We emphasized our core value words of dedication, commitment, respect, kindness and care. We remind our parents/ guardians of this grade to engage with your child around the learners’ code of conduct. Baseline assessments were written in Mathematics, English and Afrikaans. Thank you to all staff who assisted on the day.

    Bi-elections of parents on the SGB

    We say farewell to our Chairperson Ms Rushni Majiet. We thank you, Ms Majiet for the diligence, sacrifice and hard work of the past 5 years as you served and governed Windsor High. You did this with integrity and to serve the best interest of all the children under your governance. Thank you for this.

    On Monday, at 1pm the first nomination and validation meeting will take place at school under the guidance of the school electoral officer, Ms Prinsloo of Groenvlei High.

    School Uniform Shop

    The second hand shop will be open from 9am to 12:00 from Tuesday, 2nd December until 23rd December 2025. Parents are reminded that you can purchase school ties, school badges and the athletics/PE uniform at Aspire clothing in Imam Haroon Road Lansdowne. At School and Leisure in Claremont we can purchase the school skirt, school jersey, school ties and school badges.

    Stationery List

    Attached to this email are the stationary lists for grades 9 to 12 of 2026. Please note the costs of Business studies textbooks R80-00 G10, R90-00 G11, R100-G12. All textbooks must be covered with strong plastic, so we appeal to parents/guardians to budget to cover 9 textbooks per child. Reminder that each student must have a box of Rota Trim paper, 12 toilet rolls and 1 examination pad that is handed in on day 1 in January 2026. Grade 10 class lists for 2026 will be released later in the week.

    Farewells

    The Educator Assistant program has come to an end on the 30th November 2025. We thanked all our assistants for the excellent support they provided to the school.

    As a Windsor Family we also say farewell to the following staff members: We wish them well on their new journey. We thank them for everything that they have done for us.

Whether they were running late, not feeling well or needed to be collected early. Thank you also for the medical certificates/ notices from the clinics for their absence because of ill health. Thank you to all staff for your efficiency. We had 3 NSC exams ending at 5pm during this past week. Thank you for your diligence in ensuring a well run examination.

    To the students of Windsor High. The 99% majority of you have been well behaved, respectful and exemplary students in the exam room. Thank you! I am saddened that I cannot say 100%. However, I remain hopeful that we will get the 1% of learners on track before they reach grade 12.

    We are still in the process of examination as the grade 12 NSC examination ends on Tuesday, 25th November.

    Student Leadership Workshop

    This will take place on Tuesday, 25th November 2025 from 9am to 12pm in the minor hall at school. All the class captains and RCL members from grades 8 to 11 must attend. The dress code is casual clothes. Be comfortable in what you wear.
