 Celebrating our BSI youth
 Youth Month

Continuing with Youth month in July and highlighting our Junior Academy students, let’s hear from one of our rising stars in our Academy, Mojalefa Maseng and our youngest student, Thomo Mokgatle, about their time at BSI.

Mojalefa Maseng
Grade 9 Cambridge

BSI has really helped me to improve my golf.  When I came to BSI, I was a handicap 6 and now I am a +1.

BSI is really a nice place to be in as everyone here is welcoming and kind. My coach is really good. He is committed on helping me reach my goals and helping me be the world’s best. My academic facilitator Lee is really helpful.

I have improved on my mental and physical game, as I make good decisions on course and my confidence has built up since I came to BSI.

I have built friendship bonds with my fellow students and as I said there are amazing people here in BSI that welcome you and motivate you to come to school every day.  I love the fact that we have Friday medals and it’s a really fun and competitive day for all of us.

Mojalefa Maseng

Thomo Mokgatle
Year 7 Cambridge

The facilities [at BSI] are very good, and it is a place that teaches you how to be your best self.

Through the coaches, I have improved my putting and irons and I believe in myself more, including my emotions on the course.

The academic facilitators help a lot with everything and are very supportive.  My friends and BSI are very supportive of me. I would like to thank the staff of BSI for all they do.

Thomo Mokgatle
