CULTURE
Culture
Nico Malan has an active and healthy cultural diversity. There are many opportunities for learners to showcase their talent and achievements. We are proud of our learners’ creativity.
General Knowledge
We feel strongly that learners should be encouraged to enrich their general knowledge. A competition is held on alternate Wednesdays in the hall where general knowledge is tested. Learners enrol in teams of 2 where they have to answer questions in 3 categories. There is also a big audience supporting the contestants. We take part annually in this competition with more than 50 participants. Learners of all the top schools in the Eastern Cape compete. Teams consist of 4 members and there are lots of cash prizes to be won.Vasvra²
