"I'M PROUD OF MY HERITAGE'"
At Durbanville Primary School we encourage holistic development. Our wide culture menu offers every Durbie the opportunity to become involved in at least one cultural activity.
Our choir is currently the world champion! The choir consists of approximately 95 selected members. Choir practices take place on Tuesdays from 14:30 to 16:00 and on Thursdays from 17:30 to 19:00. The choir participates annually in various choir festivals, Eisteddfods and competitions.
