Newberry House was well represented at the recent Blouklip Trail Race, held at the foot of the Helderberg. The longer routes started at Waterford Estate and dropped into our very own Lourensford valley. Well done to one of our learners, Rachel Cadel, and our Head, Alistair Green, who both podiumed in their respective women’s 8km and men’s 21km events. A big thank you as well to the Newberry trail running community who volunteered at the Lourensford water points. A big shout-out to race organiser @Alfred Thorpe from @Runventures, who also plays a key role in facilitating our annual Newberry Middle School hike on Lourensford. A true example of a community pulling together in pursuit of a healthy, outdoor lifestyle. #NewberryHouse #BlouklipTrailRace #TrailRunning #OutdoorLearning #CommunityInAction #HealthyLifestyle #Lourensford @snapshotphotographyza @peterkirkmedia

Our Middle School learners took their geography studies to the next level this week! By transitioning from 2D maps to 3D models, they completed an in-depth study of coastal contours. Using specific sections of our beautiful local coastline, students meticulously modeled terrain to visually represent different elevations. This hands-on process allowed them to identify and "feel" the landforms that define our region. Seeing abstract concepts turn into tangible, beautiful work is a hallmark of the Middle School experience at Newberry House.
