From debate to the stage

A high school learner has many challenges and we have an understanding of everyone's circumstances. Learners should stay focused on their academics but the truth is, if he/she always work they miss out on other aspects of childhood. Cultural activities stimulate learners by improving their creative thinking, improving social and organizational skills and develops their talents.

 

Whether it's dancing, singing, reciting, acting, music or painting, there's something for everyone out there to enjoy. So, if we have gripped your imagination, then Jeugland is the best school to develop your talents and make you shine.

Revue & Extravaganza

Mass Participation

If you can sing and dance and are acrobatic in nature, this activity is something that you must do.

 

Jeugland’s Revue- group is an exciting, highly accoladed performing arts group. The group also keeps Jeugland’s name high by winning various revue competitions over an extensive period of time. The group annually enters a medley of 12-15 minutes for several revue and eisteddfod competitions and has huge success!

 

The auditions are at the beginning of the year and approximately 80 -120 members are selected. The music is recorded professionally by RS Studios(Rian Swanepoel, a former Jeugie). The group's members sing and various voices, background voices and interesting music arrangements are included. The choreography is professionally produced by Brandon vd Vyver who is also a former Jeugie. Each year he aims to produce and deliver the choreography from a different perspective to keep the audience in awe. We're very privileged that he shares his passion with our Jeugies. The group also includes very difficult lifts which is not easily done by other groups. The costumes are interesting and colourful and fit the theme. Our story's aim is to take each and every person in the audience on a journey, filled with song and dance that will take their breath away. The staff ensures that the group is absolutely equipped to make a success of this activity.

 

Choir

Our Pride

Jeugland's choir is well known and respected. Our mixed chour we make our voices heard.   With hard work, under guidance of Attie Rossouw and Ferdie Geyer, a passion for singing and a lot of commitment, Jeugland  is known as one of the top choral schools in the country.

ACTING

On the stage

The plays of Jeugland offer learners the opportunity to live out their inner actors and actress and develop valuable life skills such as confidence and communication. With numerous former Jeugies such as Leandi du Randt, Marco Spaumer, Schalk Bezuidenhout, Karen Wessels (to name just a few), who were given their first taste of fame on the Jeugland stage. We give learners the wings they need to prevail with in this life.

Debate

the future is yours

Debate is a cultural activity that creates opinion- formers and makes a difference in South Africa's development. We participate in the JDL debating competition. This competition usually attracts a lot of interest to our learners due to the development value for each participant. The Jeugies who participate in debate generally distinguish themselves as leaders at the school, because they are taught to argue and debate a matter in a mature way.

Public Speaking

Our leaders of tomorrow

JEUGLAND PUBLIC SPEAKING

A learner who is publicly able to voice his/her opinion, to defend it and who is able to carry the consequences thereof, has an attribute of invaluable value. Jeugland High school has a proud tradition of outstanding speakers and places a high premium on the development of these important skills. Whether it is alone or in a team, a Jeugie does not hesitate to say their say.

 

JEUGLAND TEAM PUBLIC SPEAKING

Team public speaking is for everyone, especially for those who love to chat! It offers a podium for the team who does not hesitate to defend their stance with courage and at the same time have the audience at the edge of their seats. It builds confidence and critical thinking. With our team public speaking, we are not afraid to grab the bull by the horns!
