    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    Thank you to the Windsor family for supporting our student leaders, Yahya Abader and Zahra Salie, who organized the IFTAR on Friday evening. A job well done and welcomed by the school management. This has become a tradition as it is the third year that the school hosts the Iftar but historic in that it is the first time that students took the lead. We are so proud of you both Yahya 12C and Zahra 12D. Thank you to all who attended this blessed occasion.

    School Uniform: The blazer is a compulsory item of the school uniform and must be worn. We have a second hand uniform shop at school for those who wish to exchange a blazer that has become too small at a minimum cost. We also have blazers available to purchase. We will not allow learners to make up their own uniform. The only skirt allowed to be worn is the check skirt. Navy or grey skirts have NEVER been part of the school uniform. We will exchange check skirts that have become too small for one from the uniform shop at a minimum cost as well. There are no excuses, parents/guardians and students. Break DT is the consequence for any uniform infringement.

    Outstanding School Fees: This message is to the grades 9 to 12 parents. All families with outstanding balances of over R2000-00 as at 31 December 2025 have been handed over to our debt collectors. They have started their communication with you and all your queries will be dealt with by the Prosum team and not the school. Grade 8 parents and guardians do take note as we are serious about all paying their school fees. The current year 2026 school fees are handled by the bursar. Grade 12 parents, you are reminded that the 2026 school fees must be paid and up to date by 31 August 2026 for your child to be invited to the Matric Ball.

    Textbooks: All textbooks must be covered with plastic. This is to protect the books from damage. Each book has a scanning code linked to the students’ name. Damaged and lost books are costs incurred by the student and for the parents’ account. We have issued books to students who have returned their textbooks from the previous year.

    Outreach: Attached is an appeal for support of the sandwich drive by the community outreach society.

    The week ahead:

    Dismissal time for the week ahead is at 2pm for students as the March test commences this week. Attached again is the test time-table. This communication also serves to inform parents/guardians that the test time-table will be extended to cover informal tests. The extension program of assessment will be forwarded in our next communication. Study hard and prepare well for the March test series.

    We are filled with gratitude for all the blessings bestowed on the Windsor family and we pray for peace in our family, in our communities and in the world.

    Kind Regards

    Parent Communication 1 March 2026

    01 March 2026

    Dear Parents, Staff and Students

    The weekly communication serves to keep the Windsor family informed of the week ahead and to reflect on the past week. It aims to provide you with transparency of what is happening at school so that as a school community we can support our children to reach their full potential.

    Reflection: This past week the Spirit Club leaders, under the guidance of Ms Nika, launched the Anti-Bullying Campaign. We commend the following grade 11 students for taking this initiative: Iviwe Ntsebezo, Qhoma Soknanyive, Ashley Zora, Luniko Mayiza and Liyema Hene. In addition, the grade 8 students have been guided through a program by their register teacher explaining what bullying entails and how it impacts others. Thank you to Ms Mally the grade head.

    In the week ahead all grades will be reflecting on this societal issue. Windsor High chooses kindness.

    Our value words of commitment and dedication speaks directly to our engagement with the most important sphere of our holistic education, that is, the academics/ the curriculum content and the assessment thereof. This past week the grade 12 mathematics students committed themselves to daily practice of mathematics in a badging ceremony led by Mr Authers, in the presence of myself and Ms Hanslo, the grade head. They will lead the campaign to ensure that all our students from grades 8 to 11 practice on Siyavula daily, by being the example. The class who scores the highest points will be treated to a Pizza Party as a reward. We encourage especially our grades 8 and 9 to get into this competition. Show the seniors that you can do it. Attached are the current positions for both the top class and the top student.

    Sport: The Volleyball boys team had a victory against Belgravia High and the Softball team won against Fish Hoek High School. Well done to all our players.

    The week ahead: We commence this coming week with a gender assembly. All the male students will be addressed by the male staff and the female students will be addressed by the female staff in separate venues. Parents and guardians are reminded of the random search and seizure that will take place. We have focused on our value word of respect and will continue to have zero tolerance for any form of disrespect displayed by students towards any staff member. We once again want to commend the vast majority of our students who are consistently respectful and kind. Keep on shining!

    March Test Series: A hard copy of the time table was handed to each learner this past week. Attached is a soft copy for the perusal of parents. We commence on the 12th March 2026. All students should be preparing for this important formal assessment.

    School Fees: This is a reminder to all families to ensure that school fees are paid on a monthly basis. We are a fee paying public school. Our annual school fees are R9500-00. Windsor High School is one of the most cost effective schools in our area surpassing and outperforming our neighboring public and private schools in the National Senior Certificate examination. We provide a quality education for our children at minimal costs. It is the responsibility of parents/guardians to pay school fees. Bank details attached.

    We pray for peace in the world, especially in the Middle East. We pray for the Windsor Family and the communities we come from. May we choose kindness! Let us respect ourselves and others.

    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
