Nkwashu starts grade 10 today. The 15-year-old is also a model and a netball player.

“In high school, I was not as cool and the most spoken about and liked by girls as Paxton is. But with Paxton, he does that so effortlessly, which kind of makes me relive my high school experience in a very cool way.

“Everyone loved me in high school. I was one of the top students as well, which amplified the confidence I have in my intellect.”

Molokomme advised the class of 2022 to make friends with people smarter than them as he believes that will motivate individuals to perform better.

Zizo Sobhutyu plays the role of Mosebjadi and is a grade 11 pupil.

“I remember having cold feet about my first day in high school as I wasn’t sure if I was going to fit in or if I will get friends, but my day was the complete opposite of my imagination,” Sobhutyu said.

In contrast, Zoe had nothing good to say about her tumultuous relationship with Lebo.
