Estie Brits

Estie Brits, Head Girl (academics) of Kempton Park Secondary School, was nominated as Volksblad and the University of the Free State’s Matriculant of the Year at a prestigious event on Saturday, 1 October 2011. She and thirteen other finalists walked away with tons of prizes at the event, which was hosted on the UFS Campus. Estie, who will be studying education at the UFS next year, won prizes to the value of R100 000.

“Finish quickly in Kempton Park, we want you in Bloemfontein,” Karien Jordaan, the master of ceremonies, told Estie, who also won the prize for best personal achievement. The competition, which is currently in its 31st year, honours matriculants who excel in academic, leadership, cultural and sports activities.

Estie, a top academic achiever, participated in the Africa Junior Athletics Games and represented the country in athletics and cross-country.
