OM OOR OPGEWONDE TE RAAK...

clock June 18, 2009 16:27 by author Johan Volsteedt

In ons land is daar inderdaad probleme, net soos in elke ander land. Terselfdertyd is daar ook veel om oor opgewonde te raak, veral wat sport betref:

Tans toer die Britse en Ierse Leeus deur ons land en as hulle Saterdag in die 1ste toets speel sal 4 Oud Greys teen hulle opdraf: Frans Steyn, Ruan Pienaar, Bismarck du Plessis en Heinrich Brussouw. In Japan speel SA se onder 20 rugbyspan in die Wereldbeker en speel Robert Ebersohn, Sias Ebersohn, Coenie Oosthuizen en Zane Botha vir hul land.

Perhaps the greatest current sporting event in the country is the Confederation Cup soccer taking place in 4 stadia around the country. Anybody who has attended any of the matches will agree that it is a magnificent event. The security and other arrangements are excellent, the stadiums in fantastic condition and the crowds are well-behaved, friendly, energetic and full of fun. It indeed augurs well for the 2010 World Cup which will be a huge success and will benefit our country and all its people!

Geluk aan baie van ons seuns wat  gedurende die vakansie in verskillende aktiwiteite hul provinsie gaan verteenwoordig!

Ons sien uit na die 3de kwartaal se aktiwiteite wat vier interskole (teen Glenwood, Grey PE, Pretoria Boys High en Paul Roos) insluit, en veral ook na die Musiekfees waar Brandon October en Lieze Beekman saam met ons seuns sal optree.

Enjoy the holidays

A GREAT 2nd TERM!

clock June 8, 2009 17:22 by author Johan Volsteedt

Die rugby- en sokker toere van die Aprilvakansie was uitstekende spanbougeleenthede waarby die afrigters en spelers baie baat gevind het.

The 1st soccer team enjoyed a wonderful tour to France and Holland and were excellent ambassadors for Grey and for South Africa. The 1st rugby team also impressed during their tour to Windhoek.

Gedurende die kunswedstryd het Grey se seuns puik presteer en die koor en Indomitus het deurgedring na die finaal van die ATKV se Applous-kompetisie.

An Old Grey who resides in the USA, dr David Kast, spent 2 days at school and addressed the boys in each grade, as well as at assembly where he spoke eloquently on the genesis, the genius and the growth of Grey.

Ons het wonderlike interskole met Selborne College, Paarl Boys High en Affies beleef waarby omtrent 500 Greyseuns betrokke was(mag ons nooit net belangstel in n eerstespan nie!). Die betrokkenheid van ons ouers en honderde Oud Greys by hierdie geleenthede, dra baie by tot die sukses en positiwiteit van die Grey-gemeenskap. Baie dankie aan die Ondersteunersklub wat soveel bydra tot die sukses van hierdie geleenthede en aan ons ouers wat so hard werk en help met die verblyf van ons besoekers!

Jake White and Eddie Jones, two international rugby coaches, presented a coaching course for coaches from all over the Free State at Grey and were full of praise for our boys and the facilities available at our school - we must never take the quality of our Grey gentlemen, our educators, parents, Old Boys or facilities for granted. We are indeed blessed!
