Small Tribute to Mrs Prinsloo

At the end of April, Wynberg Girls' High bade farewell to Deputy Principal, Karen Prinsloo.  Pupils, colleagues and parents alike will sorely miss the enthusiasm and commitment that Ms Prinsloo has shown over the years. 

In her time at Wynberg she has been an integral part of the system.  Her credentials here included being part of the Home Economics, Geography, Physical Education, Computer Studies and Art faculties, proving herself to be a ‘Karen of all Trades’.  

Her pupils will not forget her infectious enthusiasm in class that she injected into every single lesson and her ability to make the least interesting sections of work the most exciting.  An "Old Girl", herself, she always had the spirit of the school with her and was undoubtedly a huge asset to the school. 

We thank her for the effort and time that she endlessly placed in the school.  We will not forget Mrs Prinsloo quickly.

After we had sung one of her favourite hymns and she had received tributes from a number of speakers, including Mrs Harding, Mrs McEwen, Mrs Wilding and one of her students, the school paid tribute to her by singing a song written by Janet Borril. A section of it can be heard here.
