Nadine Blom and Gert Diedericks will present My Virtual World and my Teen Mental Health at six schools on the 31st of july and 1 August 2023.

Please note that this invitation is open to the  learners and parents of learners of the school only.

In loving memory of 16 year old Angie Diedericks who sadly took her own life on 1 April 2023. Angie was kind, smart, caring, gifted and talented and above all was very loved and she loved.
