\u2019n Grote in onderwys het onlangs gegroet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thomas \u201cTommy\u201d Davids het Vrydag 28 Junie n\u00e1 \u2019n siekbed sy laaste asem uitgeblaas. Sy gesin was aan sy sy by die Helderberg-hospies in Somerset-Wes en het dit as \u201cdie einde van \u2019n era\u201d beskryf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Davids, \u2019n boorling van Pni\u00ebl in die Boland en met \u2019n lewenslange passie vir onderwys en vir sy gemeenskap, het sy ganse beroepslewe van meer as 30 jaar aan voorskoolse, prim\u00eare asook sekond\u00eare onderwys gewy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy is 2 November 1941 gebore en het hom aan die destydse Hewat-onderwyskollege in Kaapstad as onderwyser bekwaam. Sy onderwysloopbaan het in 1963 aan die Albert Myburgh Sekond\u00eare Skool in Bredasdorp begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy is op 3 Februarie 1967 met Elize, \u2019n boorling van Stanford en onderwyseres by Medland Prim\u00ear, getroud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daarna het hy \u2019n pos aan die L\u00fcckhoff Sekond\u00eare Skool in Idasvallei, Stellenbosch, aanvaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die vroe\u00eb sewentigs het hy \u2019n pos aan die Bergrivier Sekond\u00eare Skool aanvaar en na Newton, Wellington, verhuis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die laat sewentigs het hy hom in die prim\u00eare onderwyssektor begewe en \u2019n pos as skoolhoof van \u2019n vyf-man-skool by Rust Stasie NGK Prim\u00ear, tussen Moorreesburg en Malmesbury, aanvaar. Hier het hy talle take, buiten sy pligte as klasonderwyser van gr.5 en gr.6, asook as skoolhoof verrig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take soos skoolbusbestuurder, noodhulpbeampte, rugbyafrigter en skeidsregter, katkisasiemeester en diaken is aan hom toevertrou, terwyl die Davids-gesin slegs 50 m van die skoolgebou af gewoon het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intussen het hy ook deeltyds aan die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika (Unisa) gestudeer en sy BA-graad in opvoedkunde vroeg in die jare tagtig verwerf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 1982 het hy die pos van skoolhoof aan die OJ Erasmus NGK Prim\u00eare skool in Kalbaskraal aanvaar. Hy is kort daarna as adjunkhoof van die Saxon Sea Sekond\u00eare Skool in Atlantis aangestel. Met die skielike uittrede van die hoof van Saxon Sea is hy as die tweede skoolhoof aangestel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In die vroe\u00eb 90\u2019s is hy aangestel as inspekteur van skole (deesdae kringbestuurder) in die Weskus-onderwysdistrik, \u2019n pos wat hy tot sy aftrede in 1996 beklee het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Davids was ook \u2019n bestuurslid van die Kaapse Professionele Onderwysersunie (KPO), onder leiding van dr. Franklin Sonn, voormalige rektor van die Skiereilandse Technikon en later ambassadeur in die VSA. Ander lede het onder andere ingesluit Andrew de Laura, die destydse skoolhoof van Schoonspruit Sekond\u00ear, Chris Goliath (oud-burgemeester van Malmesbury) en ander onderwyskollegas soos Gilbert Messina, Dolly Marais, Randall van der Heever, George Strauss en David Piedt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Davids se passie vir kleuterskoolonderrig het tot gevolg gehad dat hy minstens drie kleuterskole in sy tyd help stig het, onder andere in Idasvallei, Stepping Stones in Paarl en Vrolike Vinkies in Malmesbury. Hy was \u2019n lid van Die Stigting vir Gemeenskapswerk (FCW), onder leiding van Beulah Fredericksen, en was \u2019n aktiewe lid van di\u00e9 organisasie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens sy seun Ervin was sy pa \u2019n man van integriteit, met empatie vir die minderbevoorregtes en trots op sy herkoms. Hy het nie geskroom om sy personeel, kollegas en selfs senior skoolhoofde aan te spreek oor ongedane sake nie en sal nog lank daarvoor onthou word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Davids word oorleef deur sy vrou van 57 jaar, Elize, drie kinders, sewe kleinkinders en ses agterkleinkinders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
