K Maharaj (Third Form) has once again excelled by making the uMgungundlovu team, and has made Board 6 on the KZN team. M Mbambo (Sixth Form) and S Yenzela (Fifth Form) deserve special mention as they made the uMgungundlovu team and competed at the KwaZulu-Natal trials. Our team also did very well to come first in the less formal Schools’ Midlands League against Maritzburg Christian School, St Charles College, Alexandra High School, Pietermaritzburg Girls’ High School, Carter High School, Heritage Academy and Grace College. In the third term, our top players competed at Alexandra High for the Individual’s Midlands Team.
