New Form II boys and their Parents share time with Staff and families.
The new boys to Gibson got to Glenwood on Sunday and were addressed by the Headmaster, Mr Pinheiro and the Head Prefect of Gibson.
The boys were very keen to get started and the Senior Boys did very well by looking after their younger brothers.
There were a record number of 72 new boys to Gibson House this year and they all look like really good young Glenwood boys already in their new uniforms and kit.
I look forward to watching these young men grow over the next few years.

Prefects' Camp - 2010
The annual Prefects' Camp took place at Glengarry in the Kamberg this past weekend and it was well managed by Mrs Barnes and her Team. The boys were kept very busy all of the time and learnt a great deal over the 3 days that they spent together.
We wish the Prefects all of the very best for 2010.

Cricket at College week.
College Week 2010
Day 1: On the first day Glenwood came up against St Johns from Johannesburg. Glenwood won the toss and in overcast conditions decided to bowl. St Johns got of to a solid start but Mishkal Ramsaroop on debut took 4 for 36 in his 10 overs to restrict St Johns to 226 for 7.
Ramsaroop(27) then shared a good partnership with Javier Frost (44 not out) to leave Glenwood on 82 for 1 when the rain came down. The match ended in a draw.
Day 2: On the second day Glenwood faced Canberra Grammer from Australia. Again the overcast conditions made it an easy choice for Glenwood to bowl first. The bowlers shared responsibility and shared the wickets amongst each other to restrict Canberra to 206 all out.
Glenwood started well with another good opening partnership between Frost and Ramsaroop of 141. After the lost of a few wickets it was left to Wesley Roberts and Richard Wissing to hit the winning runs in the 43 over.
Day 3: Glenwood faced Trinity House from Johannesburg on the final day. Again Glenwood won the toss and decided to bat in nice sunny conditions. Unfortunately the batsmen couldn’t take advantage of the nice conditions with only Grove Venter with an innings of 67, which included three massive sixes, managing to score some runs.
Glenwood finally finishing on 167 all out.
Unfortunately Glenwood never really got into the game after Trinity House got of to a good start and although a few wickets fell late on Trinity ended up winning by 4 wickets.
With a four senior players missing the week must be seen as a success with a few fringe players being exposed to the highest level of High School cricket and performing well. Much is anticipated from this group of players in 2010.
Mr A Slabbert
High Performance Camp achieves objectives again.
The annual High Performance Camp started last week and has once again produced the desired outcomes. More than 160 boys and Staff based themselves at Gibson House and have worked together on all sorts of important aspects of sporting excellence.
Mr Erasmus and his Team are to be congratulated on providing another wonderful opportunity for our sportsmen to develop their skills.
Well done to all concerend.
