Meet our Matric “A” Stars!

Each of our Kingsmead students has their own distinct way of shining, here are some interesting facts about our “A” stars.

With the highest number of students completing their President’s Award Silver at the end of last year, many of our Kingsmead College students are eager to achieve their Gold Level this year!

Five of our students embarked on an exciting Gold Residential Project, joined by six students from St John’s. The project, facilitated by African Insights, took place in Pongola and was packed with adventure and learning such as:

  • Setting up camera traps and viewing the footage
  • Bush walks, conservation service, game drives, and telemetry
  • Participating in Master Chef Pongola
  • A night game drive with the most incredible sightings
  • Learning about elephant tracking collars, with all five students fitting into one collar

What an unforgettable experience this was.
