All years	The Dloko High School Choir   The Dloko High School Choir from Umlazi Township are performing this year at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival! JGHS Chamber Choir will be joining them on stage for the finale and one other item.  The Chamber Choir would like to invite any pupil past or present to join them for this event with the Dloko Choir.  Rehearsals will be happening in the next few weeks.  If you would like to be involved please come to a meeting during lunchtime on Thursday.   The publicity blurb says that the choir’s performance will ‘move you to tears of sadness and joy.’ This statement is absolutely true and those staff and pupils who have been involved in the South Africa project can testify to this statement.   It has been discussed that JGHS staff and pupils can get tickets at the concession rate.  The money raised from ticket sales will fund local community projects tackling poverty through the Jabulani Charity.     Date 12-14 August 2014 Time 19:55 Duration 1 hour Venue The Assembly Rooms   Commonwealth Games Event:   Any pupils who have been issued with a letter for the Commonwealth Games Event MUST attend a meeting on Monday 9th June at 4pm in the Dinning Centre (Lauderdale campus).   Mr Sievwright   Lauderdale Street Site Works - Health and Safety Notice   From Wednesday 14th May there will be an increase in concrete deliveries during the day at ALL times.
