At the end of July, Olyfkrans College had the privilege to celebrate Mrs Petra Muller, well-known South African writer and poet's birthday. Staff and learners helped to make this day one to remember. Mrs Muller has been a family friend of the Mocke's for many years and still has very strong ties with Swellendam.
Ons was uiters bevoorreg om hierdie dag saammet Petra Muller en haar familie en vriende te kon deel. Dit was ook vir die leerlinge 'n wonderlike ervaring om skouers te kon skuur met mense wat so 'n groot impak maak in die literêre wêreld.
