His expertise has been invaluable and his dedication to the Centre for over 30 years is gratefully appreciated. The Franciscan Order, The Sisters of Mercy, Dominican Order, the Holy Cross sisters, Christian Brothers, members of St Anthony’s Club, the Catholic Women’s League and the St Francis of Assisi executive all assisted Father Stan in developing St Anthony’s.

We are extremely proud of all of these achievements and congratulations must go to all staff and students who have worked extremely hard throughout the year to attain these results. Once again in 2016 all learners in the FMP had an opportunity to attend a Study Skills Programme due to the generosity of Mercedes-Benz SA (Pty) Limited who funded the programme. We are extremely grateful to Mercedes-Benz SA (Pty) Limited for their continued commitment to education. Feedback from learners about the Study Skills course was extremely positive and we hope the benefit provided will show in the results achieved by the learners at the end of the year. The St Anthony’s Library continues to be a vital part of the experience of students that come through the Centre. The Library was renamed during the 50th celebrations during 2016 to honour the founder of the Centre. The Library is now known as the Father Stan Brennan Library. In February 2016 all learners were offered a Library Orientation course. Thanks must go to the Library Administrator and her assistant for the excellent work done to ensure that all students understand the functions of the Library and encouraging them to use the Library throughout the year. Intervention classes took place throughout the year during break time and after school to try to ensure that students who experience difficulties receive the necessary help in order for them to succeed. All Maths and Grade 12 Accounting students attended weekly Saturday classes to help improve their academic performance.
