\"Juffrou
‘n Atmosfeer van opgewondenheid heers in die grondslagfase van Danie Ackermann Prim\u00eare Skool, waar onderwysers die ywerige klein leerders met moederlike warmte met die aanbreek van die nuwe akademiese jaar verwelkom het. Onder die toegewyde opvoeders is die skool se geliefde juffrou Rushda Biscombe, wat saam met haar entoesiastiese leerders \u2013 Alikho Ndzobe, Staffany Chingwari, Mia Glover, Jayden Sihwanya en Ovuyo Jijana \u2013 uitsien na ‘n jaar vol leer, speel en belangrike mylpale.

\"Klein
Alhoewel die meeste van die nuwe leerders Dinsdag (13 Januarie) se eerste ontmoeting met hul onderwysers met bre\u00eb glimlagte en sukses hanteer het, was die oorgang heeltemal te veel vir klein Tafadzwa George om te hanteer. Die nuwe graadeentjie was op daardie oomblik ontroosbaar en het, ten spyte van liefdevolle sorg en aanmoediging deur juffrou Rushda Biscombe, in trane uitgebars toe sy “Mamma” die klaskamer moet verlaat.

\"Tweeling
Dit is ‘n groot dag vandag (Woensdag 14 Januarie) vir alle nuwe graad 1-leerders by Dr. G.J. Joubert Prim\u00eare Skool, maar die tweeling Shernica en Shane September maak dit dubbel spesiaal. Die onderwysers sal dalk nie dubbel sien nie, maar di\u00e9 boetie en sussie se band word nie so maklik geskei nie, al is hulle in verskillende graad 1-klasse. Of dit nou tweelingtelepatie is of iets anders \u2013 die ‘Joubie’-sibbe is daar vir mekaar met ‘n bietjie sibbe-wedywering. Foto: Barend Williams<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
