Gabriel Taapopi School 20th Anniversary!


Our school is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Since it was formed in 1988, this year marks its 20th year of existence. A reunion is in plan, where all former/current learners and friends are invited to come and celebrate the 'centre of excellence'. This will be from 29-31 August, at the school in Ongwediva. So if you fall in any of these categories, or would simply would like to pay homage to one of the best schools in the north of Namibia, please you are more than welcome.

With the aim of raising funds to assist in achieving the school's set targets, raffle tickets are being sold.. everybody is asked to buy as many as they can, alternatively they get to be entered into a draw where they could win N$ 10 000.00 or other cash prizes. T-shirts and other souvenirs will also be sold at the main event, so that you at least take something home. Those attending the main event on the 30th are asked to buy lunch tickets (N$50.00).

People assigned to sell all items are all around you... so you can ask for who's closest to you. Also, please be informed that the school will have a stand at the Ongwediva Trade Fair, where you can make a turn. Visit the school website at http://www.gtsschool.org

Please don't hesitate in asking for more information from the school regarding anything. Personally, I look forward to meeting people who schooled at G.T. who I have never met before. What people does our Alumni boost? I wonder! Aluta continua, victoria acerta!

Grateful!

I'm so grateful that I have come to the end of one of the most important terms in my school career. My results aren't bad. I'm relieved, and know that there's still room for improvement. This holiday should just be a chance to at least retire, and continue where I left off and polish up for the final exams to matriculate. Applications to university have opened and I'll apply. Luckily, the annual Ongwediva Trade Fair is taking place this holiday as well, I'll make a ten -not a turn. Thank God, things are beginning to look up at least!
