A Fantastic Story by Elsia (pre-int. student)

James Bond – The man with the Golden Gun

It was very late at the evening and James bond ran across the road quickly. He carefully opened the window, looked around him and jumped inside his room. He could see his heart beating through his chest. Then he took a breath, had a shower and went to bed. However, James kept an eye open…

He was sleeping very peacefully and was dreaming of a very pretty woman with long fair hair who was wearing a red dress. Suddenly at 4 o’clock, he heard a noise from the window! He took immediately his gun from under the pillow.

James Bond crept slowly along the wall, stood next to the curtains and saw something move behind them. He was scared. Then he stood in front of the curtains, pointed his gun and swiftly opened the curtains. It was a woman just like in his dream.

_Mary Goodnight! Said he. What are you doing here?

_Oh James, I have a “Most Immediate” message for you.

James pulled her through the window and, her to the bathroom and sad down on the bath. He turned on the shower and then said:

_Mary what’s happened? What are you doing here?

She was exhausted and said:

_J.B, I’m sorry but it was so important. H.Q sent me to warn you about Hendriks because he’s looking for you.

_who is he? Whispered James

_He’s a top KBG agent but he’s using this name Hendriks and he knows everything

About you!

James cursed:

_What the hell? We have to leave immediately!

James turned off the shower then he led her across the room and opened the bedroom door.

_Oh my Goodness! The man with the Golden Gun. Screamed Mary.

_Scaramanga! Said James hopelessly.

_Ahahahahaha…Yes it’s me! Back inside both of you, put your hands up and don’t make any noise.

Dear Kurus Team

Thanks for the beautiful time!!!

I had a lot of fun and I learned so much. The lessons are very varied and the teachers are so helpful and friendly. The excursions are very interesting.

Cape Town is very multicultural and I really enjoyed it so far!

I like the school and I’m happy about the great time!

It’s a pity that I have no more time, but I’m happy that I can stay for another 5 weeks in Cape Town.

Best wishes Sandra from Germany

Language Excursion, May 2010

This week we had special Language Excursions – a mixed selection of our different themes.

On the first day we went to the Nelson Mandela Exhibition at the Slave Lodge to learn more about Nelson Mandela’s life and his immense impact on South African history. We could see the progression of apartheid over the years and the great efforts people like Mandela made to create a free and democratic South Afirca.

The next day we focused on the new developments in Cape Town due to the FIFA World Cup in South Africa. We visited the new Cape Town station, the new IRT and observed further changes of the infrastructure. The city has made huge improvements over the last few years. Moreover we were told about future plans and developments in the city.

The next day we headed to Langa, the oldest township in South Africa. There we met Zozo, who used to live in the township. He told us about his life in this area and guided us through his hometown. It was very interesting to experience the environment, the people, the way of live and the living conditions in this area. A special highlight for us was the spontaneous performance of a small boy with his marimbas.

VERSE 3 Afrikaans:

Uit die blou van onse hemel,
Ringing out from our blue heavens
Uit die diepte van ons see,
From our deep seas breaking round
Oor ons ewige gebergtes,
Over everlasting mountains
Waar die kranse antwoord gee,
Where the echoing crags resound

Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.
