Meet the Matrics | Praneel Dita 🎓

Praneel joined Bennies in Grade 4 as a member of Mazenod House. His advice to his younger self is to stop worrying about awkward moments and enjoy the ride. Looking ahead, he reminds himself that there is no need to have everything figured out. Keep working hard, take chances and stay open to the unexpected.

One of his fondest memories is the Grade 10 Orange River trip with his friends. The days were filled with laughs, good times and moments with his mates that he will always look back on fondly.

We wish Praneel all the very best for the remainder of his matric journey and the exciting future that awaits him. Once a Bennies boy, always a Bennies boy.

Meet the Matrics | Wandile Sibanda 🎓

Wandile joined Bennies in Grade 8 as a member of Allard House. Looking back, his message to his younger self is simple: “I think we did alright.” As he looks ahead, he encourages himself to keep going because he is almost there.

The Grade 10 Orange River tour stands out as one of his most meaningful memories.

It was an opportunity for personal growth that left a lasting impression.
