N\u00e1 37 jaar van skoolhou skop hy sy skoolskoene uit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Joseph Arendse (59) het 31 Maart totsiens ges\u00ea aan die leerders en onderwysers van Ho\u00ebrskool Kylemore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van die 37 jaar as onderwyser was hy vir 26 jaar in diens by di\u00e9 skool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arendse was deel van die span wat in 1991 begin het asook een van die eerste departementshoofde by die skool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die vakke wat hy aangebied het is Afrikaans huistaal, Afrikaans eerste addisionele taal en lewensori\u00ebntering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs onderwyser kom daar baie uitdagings op jou pad vanwe\u00eb ouers, leerders en medekollegas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arendse s\u00ea hy het net geweet hoe om al die uitdagings te oorkom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy grootste uitdaging was egter om leerders aan te moedig om hul potensiaal maksimaal te ontwikkel en te benut en om sommiges so ver te kry om hul toekomsdrome te vervul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy noem dat hy sy werk baie geniet het, nie net om kennis oor te dra nie, maar om leerders lewensvaardighede aan te leer en logies te laat redeneer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het dit geniet om les aan te bied vir leerders wat honger is om hul kennisvlak te verbreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie feit dat jy vroe\u00ebr leerders nog kon dissiplineer, het \u2019n verskil gemaak. Nadat oudleerders se kinders die ho\u00ebrskool betree het, kon jy duidelik uit leerders se gedrag en ingesteldheid teenoor hul werk aflei dat sommige na hulle ouers aard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arendse het sy ho\u00ebrskoolloopbaan aan die Sekond\u00eare Skool Paulus Joubert voltooi, waarna hy sy onderwysopleiding en nagraadse studies aan die Universiteit van Wes-Kaapland voltooi het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daarna het hy onderrig gegee by die Sekond\u00eare Skole Windemere en Klein-Nederburg voordat hy by Kylemore aangesluit het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk gaan die skoolhou mis vir die feit dat ek vir 37 jaar betrokke was in verskillende gemeenskappe asook die rol wat ek kon speel om \u2018n verskil te maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAndersyds gaan ek die leerders se verskillende persoonlikhede mis. Hulle strewe soms te hard daarna om ordentlike mense te wees en sit in die meeste gevalle die pot lelik mis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die liefde vir kinders wat jy as onderwyser ontwikkel en hoe hulle op hul beurt wys dat hulle jou waardeer, is iets wat altyd uitgestaan het vir hom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arendse wil onthou word vir die liefdevolle en omgeemens wat hy is. Die een wat net die beste vir ander wil gee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ho\u00ebrskool Kylemore wens hom \u2019n welverdiende ruskans toe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
