• When you choose courses for secondary school, it is

important that you do some HONEST self assessment, matching your ability with your interests.

• A strong foundation is very important for success in

grades 11 and 12!

Some good advice!

• Decide in your heart of

hearts what really excites and challenges YOU , and start moving your life in that direction.

• Look at who you want

to be, and start sculpting yourself into that person.
