Ursuline Schools standing by their Serviam

Mrs Erin Prada from Ursuline Academy, Wilmington bravely has her hair cut by Mr Kyle van der Merwe from Brescia House School.
Brescia House School is proud to be a part of the global Ursuline network for schools, where service (Serviam) is not just a motto, but an integral part of their ethos. The school is currently hosting 12 students and 2 teachers from the Ursuline Academy in Wilmington, USA, enriching cultural exchange and strengthening the bonds of sisterhood.
28 March witnessed a truly heartwarming act of service. Wilmington teacher Erin Prada donated her hair to CANSA. The gesture was particularly moving as it took place in the presence of students and teachers from two Ursuline schools, Brescia House School South Africa and Ursuline Academy Wilmington. Brescia House School is immensely proud to have such dedicated individuals as part of their Ursuline family, inspiring all to live out the motto, Serviam – I will serve. Thank you to C Connoisseurs Studio for the ‘after’ styling! Let’s continue to spread kindness and make a positive impact in our community and beyond!
