Dear pupils, teachers, parents, friends, patrons and donors, both past and present.
With our upcoming 50th Birthday we are very keen to connect with all our family ties. This is a very big moment in the life of the school and we want to share our news and celebrations with as many of our friends as possible.
We are in the process of getting together the contact details of all the people who have gone into making us what we are today.
We would LOVE to hear from you, and to find out where you are and what you are doing. Please do contact us at info@michaeloak.org.za.
