Nice one Jamey.
Mine got award for english and africaans, think only 1 other kid got something in his class.
 
I created our school's prize giving certificates in Publisher. Can I get prize for that please?
 
Well at our High-school prize-giving, this one person in Grade 8 I think, won:

- English
- Maths
- Biology
- Science
- Geography
- History
- Art
- Xhosa
- Life Orientation

The only prize he didn't win was Economics.
 
Congratulations to you and your daughter! Keep up the good work young lady!! We are all very proud of you!
 
Congrats, to you and her both. I remember getting awards at school and it was always a great feeling knowing that you are the best at something, even though I really had no external pressure to perform I just likes the trill of competing.
 
thanks man, i think i said in the OP that she never got her brains from me as i failed everything. she has a good head on her shoulders for an 11 yr old.
 
will do, she tells me now that her class was the only one in the whole school that had 100% pass rate.

Do not underestimate yourself Wayne. Most males in the School Environment are bored to tears. A young male was not made to sit on his derrière listening to boring History lessons and the like.

Where Schools can pick this up is with an IQ Test or similar tests they may use nowadays to evaluate young people. Little Johnny may score 120 or more as an example for his IQ, but at School he will score grades that just allows him to pass.
I would rather think little Johnny is clever enough to just do the minimum work needed to pass which in itself shows intelligence.
I know this is a silly example, but my point is on average males score less than their female counterparts, which I think is more a case of females being more diligent than actually more intelligent.
