Get your very own Micklefield Bear, the official Micklefield School teddy! Each bear is uniquely handcrafted by an incredible group of women from Mitchells Plain, Cape Town. Unlike mass-produced toys, every Micklefield Bear is lovingly made from home, with each lady putting her own special touch on the bear she creates.
This means no two bears are exactly the same—each is one-of-a-kind! By purchasing a Micklefield Bear, you’re not only getting a unique keepsake but also supporting the creativity and dedication of these talented women.
Bring home the joy of a Micklefield Bear today!
*All funds raised are going toward the building of our Micklefield Pool!

The Cape Town Premier League (CPL) Hockey Tournament took place over the last two weekends. It allows players to sign up and be drafted into teams.
I was fortunate to join the Raptors, coached by Cara Andrews. The tournament attracts players from all over the Western Cape, and gave me the opportunity to meet new girls and coaches. The best part of the experience was making new friends and, of course, playing loads of hockey.
I learnt so many new tactics and skills that I’m excited about. As a first-time player doing CPL, I highly recommend all hockey-loving Micklefield girls to sign up for this amazing tournament next year.
Congratulations to our past pupil, Kiera Howard who is presently in Matric at Herschel who was selected for the SA U18 Basketball Team and played in the FIBA AfroBasket Tournament in Pretoria recently. An outstanding achievement, we are very proud of you, Kiera!
Many of our girls took part in the Move National Dance Competition this week which included a variety of dance styles. Mila Liao-Rhodes and Isla Gething were awarded a Gold, and they were the regional winners for their Acrodance Group routine.
Our Grade 1 students had an exciting time during their Chef Day.
It was a day filled with fun, teamwork, and tasty creations, and we’re so proud of our young chefs for their efforts. Well done to all our Grade 1s for making the day such a success.
