LEADERSHIP

Since 1997 leadership opportunities at Durbanville Primary School have been expanded. Seven committees give 90 learners the opportunity to discover and develop their skills and leadership qualities. The criteria states that both language groups and both sexes should be represented. Our core team consisting of 25 learners act as chairman/lady, deputy chairman/lady and secretary.

The core team meets once a week and quarterly outings are arranged for them. The highlight is the core team camp oat the end of the year.
