RCL 2023: Wednesday wisdom

When you walked into HTS, you did not walk with a friend you walk alone and as far as you know your parents aren't paying school for you and your friends ... they pay school fees for you,  so that you can get a better education and self-esteem for your goal in life. Be confident in yourself. Nobody can make you feel inferior without your permission. Always be looking forward. You can never plan the future by the past. Live a life of purpose and hone your skills

Statistiekterugvoering

Kom ontdek al die heerlike artikels op Tekkie Tonic. Daar is 3195 artikels en 97 pages om van te kies. Die pages is aan die linkerkant. Aan pages se onderkant is daar trefwoorde wat jou direk na die artikel/artikels vat.

Bogenoemde statistiek is slegs die getalle vir die afgelope maand. Die page wat 'n groot gunsteling onder die lesers is, is Spelling 2023. Dis geen wonder nie, want die afgelope ruk gons dit in die media omdat SA-kinders nie kan lees of spel nie. Klik HIER om 'n vinnige draai by Spelling 2023 te maak. 

'n Ander interessante besoekpunt is die WednesdayWisdom. Klik HIER vir 'n bietjie wysheid.

Soos iemand met 'n hartprobleem, is Tekkie Tonic
se hartklop baie onreëlmatig.

Party dae is die besoekers baie meer as ander dae.

Meimaand was maar 'n flouerige maand as 'n mens dit met Juniemaand vergelyk. Juniemaand was daar meer e-besoekers per dag as in Mei. Tot en met vandag het Tekkie Tonic 21 117 besoeke ontvang.

'n GROOT dankie vir elke getroue leser, die 2023-junior joernaliste, elkeen wat só gereeld artikels, foto's en idees instuur. Dankie vir die gereelde terugvoering - dit is nodig sodat ons in voeling met ons e-kuiergaste kan bly. Vandag het daar weer 'n 1000+ mense kom inloer en sê ons 148 000 keer dankie! Indien enige een 'n staaltjie, storie of besondere foto het, kan hulle dit gerus stuur aan aldawelman@gmail.com

What does RCL mean in school?

The RCL is a legislated body, whose purpose is to ensure that student opinion on the running of the school is heard and noted. Representatives are elected from each grade, and two of these representatives sit on the school's governing body.

What are the three roles of an RCL?

Why do you want to be a school representative?
It improves the decision-making and problem-solving skills of an individual. It gives birth to leadership and negotiation skills. It also helps in motivating an individual and he/she experiences self-worth. It also provides an experience in working individually.

Participating in institutional decision-making structures. Advising and supporting the delivery of effective and efficient student support services. Managing and administering student representation at different levels. Advising on the development of academic programmes and student learning experiences.

Listen HTS learner’s you will fail in some point in your life, accept it, you will lose, it’s the only way to learn, you have to fail, failure’s are part of the process of being successful ... failure give you two choices: it’s either you stay down or you get up - it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. And the most important thing is believe in yourself. The sky is the limit spread your wings and fly high. [Sicelo Ben]

Congratulations, class of 2022

A big congratulations to the class of 2022 for obtaining a pass rate of 92%. The school is very proud of you guys, not only that, but we as the class of 2023 intend to do even better than you guys.

You guys are the motive behind our thirst to perform this year and put the school on the map just like you guys did, and quite frankly the only way to quench that thirst is to put in a lot of work during this year. At the end of the day the class of 2022 still remains as the class that made it through all odds and inspire us to give it our all.

This performance consequently encourages the teachers to be proud of their work thus investing more in us, as it is a nice feeling for teachers to get such results from the learners

As much as we congratulate the class of 2022, we should not forget about the teachers that made all of this possible.
