Intermediate phase learners’ shopping outing
The Intermediate phase learners do a shopping outing once a term. Their trip to Cedar Square this term was on 9 May to the Pick ‘n Pay, where they were model students. Some of them displayed great confidence since the last term’s shopping outing, which was so lovely for the teachers to witness.
Shopping is part of our Maths and Life Skills curriculum, as our learners get the opportunity to use the skills they have learnt in class. These skills include appropriate greeting, handling money and following instructions.

Soccer matches against Chrysalis Academy
On Wednesday 22 May, we played two friendly soccer games that were both won by Chrysalis Academy remedial school. They won the first game by 2-1 and the second game was 2-0. Nkosana Mvuyane scored Unity College’s only goal.
The Chrysalis Academy was so happy being involved with Unity College that they’ve invited us for a friendly at their premises next.

Colouring in competition
Mrs Henderson’s Intermediate class had a colouring in competition. Three pictures were chosen by the learners as the winners. Mrs Henderson then took these to the staff and parents to vote for the ultimate winner. In the end it was Kayla Kennaugh who won!
This is where it all starts
The entry level Junior learners start in Teacher Marlize’s class, moving up to Teacher Sandy’s class. Here we make use of TEACCH task files for Language and Maths. These task files encourage the children to work independently from start to finish. Activities include shape matching, counting, beginning sounds, and many more.
