ShowMe Paarl Schools Project
ShowMe Paarl Schools Project
In today’s world of high speed Internet delivering massive amounts of information in a split second – How are you communicating and providing information about your school to your community and others?
Can you afford NOT to have an online presence? The answer is obvious – You have to be!
ShowMe Paarl in partnership with Radio KC & the Paarl Sakekamer has launched a project which aims to provide every school in the Drakenstein area with a web presence in the form of an active website or listing which will be on the ShowMe platform.ShowMe is a community website promoting the towns of Paarl and Wellington. Through our Community websites we provide information on all aspects of the day to day happenings in our town. This includes Tourism, Events, Business and Industry.
ShowMe promotes all good causes and creates a platform for organisations to promote their own causes and interact with the communities in which they operate.
This initiative aims to provide all schools in the area with an opportunity to promote themselves in the greater community for FREE.
The web presence will be in the form of a Website or Feature Listing which will be on the ShowMe platform.
Schools can publish information about their school’s academic, sport, cultural and other activities. Picture Galleries can also be added with pictures of past events etc. Each school will be provided with 8 (Eight) pages and within limits could utilize it as they see fit.
This would allow schools to promote themselves and enable learners to understand the concept of Online-Media.
A responsible person will be nominated by each school to make sure the site is maintained and updated.
A prize will be awarded to one Primary School and one Secondary or High School.
This prize will not be given in cash, but must be utilized to purchase computer equipment for the school or to help enhance / upgrade their current computer facilities.
Radio KC is actively promoting the project through advertising and their support stems from their desire to be involved in the community.
For examples of Schools listed on the ShowMe network, see below:
Fish Hoek High School | Curro Nelspruit | Greenwood Independent School | Khairos Privaatskool | Plettenberg Bay Christian School | Rustenburg Girls High School | Sans Souci Girls’ High School | Settlers High School | Springfield Convent School | St Cyprian’s School

Some of the more established schools in the area may not see the need for taking up this offer but they are welcome to become involved. It is open to any school in the Drakenstein area.
There is a small school somewhere behind a tree or on the mountain that also have talented children – an athlete, a singer or what about the under 11 Rugby team that won their match last weekend. Tell the world about it!
Here is an opportunity to do just that – For free. The price is right, Isn’t it?
All you have to do is contact Len van der Walt and he will arrange to visit the school and assist you through the whole process.
