Preparation is key: How to tackle your Sesotho FAL P3

Now, just knowing the date is not enough, neh? We need a solid game plan. For Sesotho FAL P3, it is all about practicing your writing. This paper typically involves things like writing essays, letters, reports, or even short stories in Sesotho. So, how do you get ready? First, make sure you understand the different text types. Practice writing them, time yourself, and ask your teacher to mark them. Don’t be shy to make mistakes; that’s how we learn. Go through past papers, like previous years’ matric papers, and see what kind of topics come up. Think about how you would structure an argument in Sesotho, or how you would write a compelling narrative. Reading Sesotho newspapers and books will also help you broaden your vocabulary and understand different writing styles. Don’t forget those language rules, grammar, and spelling, because they also count for a lot of marks!

On the day of the exam: What to do and what to bring

The 28th of October, 2025, will arrive before you know it. On that morning, it’s important to be calm and prepared. The exam starts at 09:00, which means you should aim to arrive at the exam venue at least an hour before, say by 08:00. This gives you time to find your seat, settle down, use the restroom, and calm any pre-exam jitters. Rushing will only add to your stress, and we don’t want that! Remember, grade 12 exams are a big deal, so punctuality is non-negotiable.

When it comes to what to take with you for your Sesotho FAL P3 exam, make sure you have the following:

• Your official statement of entry: This is your golden ticket, don’t forget it!
• Your Identity Document (ID): Or a valid birth certificate. Without proper identification, you might not be allowed to write, and that would be a tragedy after all your hard work.
• Several blue or black pens: Make sure they are working! You don’t want a pen running out in the middle of your best essay. Bring at least three, just in case.
• A clear pencil case: This is usually required so invigilators can easily see what you have.
• A ruler: While not strictly necessary for a language paper, sometimes you might need to draw lines or underline. Better safe than sorry.
• A bottle of water: Stay hydrated! Make sure the label is removed.
• Perhaps a small, healthy snack: Energy for your brain, but check if this is allowed in your exam centre.

During the exam, behave respectfully. Listen to all instructions from the invigilators. Do not talk to other candidates, and absolutely no cheating, my friends. Your integrity is worth more than any mark. Read your questions carefully, plan your answers, and manage your time wisely. Once you start writing, focus on making your Sesotho as clear and engaging as possible.

Reminding yourself of the big date

To ensure you never forget that Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 09:00, try these little tricks. Set multiple reminders on your phone for a week before the exam. Write it on a sticky note and put it on your mirror or fridge. Tell your family the date so they can also help remind you. Visualize yourself confidently walking into that exam hall. Knowing the date and being well-prepared will boost your confidence immensely. “Re tla kgona!” (We will succeed!).

I wish you all the very best with your matric preparations. Work hard, stay positive, and believe in yourselves. You have come so far, and this is your time to shine! Go make us proud!
