Mike arranged a fantastic tour of our old school - OPS.

Our tour guide was Sharon Wilson - Sharon that you for showing us around and for the interesting information.

The school still has a very high standard of education and is looking better than ever. They now start at grade 0 and are introducing grade 8 next year and eventually will supply teaching until grade 12 - so Oranjemund will eventually have a high school.

Here are some photographs of the afternoon tour.
OPS 1961-1968. Huguenot High 1969-1973.
Military Service Jan 1974-June 1975.
Worked in Oranjemund July 1975-March 1979.

Life's journey is not to
arrive at the grave safely
in a well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways,
totally worn out, shouting
'..holy sh*t ..what a ride!

In the one photograph of my std 5 class - Mike was in deep thought of wondering if he should go back to primary school.
