Matric farewell 2024: Well done to our wonderful achievers!
Abraham Kriel Children’s Home Nylstroom is excited to announce that the matriculants of 2024 from Solomon Mahlangu Secondary School and Hoërskool Nylstroom have celebrated their matric farewell. The matric farewell is a significant event for all South African children, but for the children of Abraham Kriel Children’s Home, completing matric is an especially remarkable achievement. With their challenging backgrounds, our children’s academic successes are all the more special. This year, we wanted to ensure that they truly felt how important their achievement is – and how incredible they are! And our donors made it all possible!
Our matriculants dazzled in their stunning dresses and suits; the girls were breathtakingly beautiful, and the boys looked very dashing. Their outfits were made possible by generous donors with big hearts, who ensured that the day was unforgettable for each matriculant. They looked like characters from a fairytale! After the “Big Brag” at AKKN’s own function, the children were also given the opportunity to attend their school events. It was a privilege to be part of the successful celebration of their matric farewell.
This year’s matriculants are: Micayla Jenkins, Paballo Mochaki, Nelly Dlamini, Melpheus Monyeki, Given Dlamini, Emanuel Tsebe, and Gift Thabang. To each of them, we say: Well done! Your future is as bright as the light in your eyes! We can’t wait to see what adventures await you!
