The Girls’ High Bomb

 The Girls’ High Bomb

We took the pressure and we threw it away when we celebrated our teams and upcoming Interschools win at our annual Big Brag and Prefect hall. The teams were shown off at the Big Brag so we know which faces are taking the big win this year along with a song of their choosing to relax the nerves building for the upcoming events. The Boys In Blue showed their support for our teams, wishing us luck with the upcoming games and congratulating us on the games already played.

Sportsman’s Warehouse, the main sponsor of Interschools, further lifted spirits by giving out “freebies” bringing life in the early morning. Supporters sent videos to Girls’ High to show their support and let the girls know who has their back in the upcoming games. The event brought laughter along with tears to the speeches from the first teams’ captains. Excitement for Fridays’ events was seen on many faces along with a bittersweet feeling for the matrics having their last Big Brag, Prefect Hall and Interschools. The leaders held their last “Prefect hall”  and to say it was memorable is an understatement. The leaders constantly had us on our feet about what was to come with hilarious videos by the GK and the teachers. Too much of “Prefect Hall” cannot be revealed, as the saying goes “You had to be there”. I am sure many matrics were left with a heavy heart, but a heavy heart is a heart filled with memories and love. This “half-day” lifted everyone's spirits and got the “Gees” high for Interschools 2023.

Matriek momente: Uit die lens van 'n toeskouer

  Matriek momente: Uit die lens van 'n toeskouer deur Chane van Zyl Foto: EJ Lang Gim se hekke wemel van voete wat in en uit beweeg. Dis 'n gonsende bynes van opwinding en verwagting wat in die lug hang. Die groot dag het uiteindelik aangebreek. Dit is INTERSKOLE! Met 'n hart vol liefde en nostalgie neem ek die geleentheid waar om die dag te deel met my geliefde vriendinne. Ons loop saam langs die veld, die herinneringe van ons avonture en oomblikke van vreugde en verdriet deelend. Ons praat oor ons drome en hoop vir die toekoms, terwyl ons weet dat hierdie oomblikke ons altyd sal verbind, selfs al skei ons paaie eendag. Die geur van vars grasperk vul die lug, en ek kan nie anders as om die oomblik te koester nie. Ek neem 'n oomblik om om my te kyk en al die gelukkige gesigte te sien. Ons meisies het ons verskillende belange en talente, maar vandag is ons almal een - een skool, een gemeenskap, een familie. Die wedstryde vorder, en ek voel die adrenalien in my are pomp. ...

Skaak - die spel wat nie diskrimineer nie

  Skaak - die spel wat nie diskrimineer nie Deur Luca Yelverton Interskole is ‘n baie opwindende tydperk vir al die leerders in HMS. Dit is ‘n fees waarna almal heeljaar uitsien en dit is ‘n tyd propvol pret en plesier. Die doel is natuurlik om te wen, maar meer as dit is die doel om dit te geniet. Hierdie stelling klink seker soos elke praatjie wat ons nog voor elke wedstryd moes hoor, maar dis waar. Interskole is ‘n belewenis en ons moet dit waardeer en geniet. Ons is bevoorreg om elke jaar hierdie spesiale gebeurtenis saam met ons broers in blou te kan aanpak. Tydens Interskole word daar baie verskillende sporte gespeel. Een van hierdie sporte is natuurlik skaak. Ja, skaak is ‘n sport. Al die HMS-skaakspelers het hard gewerk en is reg vir Interskole. PK Subban het gesê: “Die lewe is soos ‘n skaakwedstryd. Elke besluit wat jy neem, het ‘n gevolg.” Subban se vergelyking pas perfek. Ek het persoonlik Dinsdag my eesrte interskole skaakwedstryd gespeel en dit was regtig ‘n spesial...
