DAAR was talle trotse oomblike vir elke Gilliaan wat kon deel wees van di\u00e9 instansie se onlangse 150ste bestaansjaar vieringe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Net soos 150 jaar gelede het die verrigtinge in die NG Kerkgebou begin waar ds. Johan Ors-mond \u2019n aangrypende boodskap gelewer het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00e1 di\u00e9 verrigtinge het die tromspelers, die onderhoofmeisie en hoofseun met die lands- en skoolvlae, die skoolhoof, Shirley Slater-Billet, en die eregaste die kerk verlaat en in Nojoli-straat bymekaar gekom. Hulle is gevolg deur oud-skoolhoofde, beamptes van die onderwysdepartement en leerders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die optog het by die skoolgronde ingedraai waar die skoolhoof die deure, net soos 150 jaar gelede, oopgesluit het. Twee 150-baniere is aan weerskante van die trap oopgerol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Acapella-groep, onder leiding van Junior Yantola, het toe \u2019n lied gesing waarna die eregaste, leerders en personeel na die verwelkoming en toesprake geluister het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die skoolhoof het in haar toespraak melding gemaak van die Sankofa vo\u00ebl waarvan die voete vorentoe wys, maar die gesig agtertoe met \u2019n goue eier in sy bek. Volgens haar stel hierdie vo\u00ebl presies voor waarna by Gill-Kollege gestreef word: om die beste van die verlede te neem, dit die toekoms in te dra terwyl tred gehou word met die jongste ontwikkelinge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toast Coetzer, \u2019n oud-Gilliaan, bekende joernalis, skrywer vir WEG<\/i> en GO!<\/i> en \u2013 wanneer hy nie op die pad is nie \u2013 aanbieder by Bush Radio, is toe aan die woord gestel. Coetzer is trots op Gill en praat met groot lof van die skool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit wat jy leer op die skoolbanke (en in die boeke) is belangrik, ja, maar dit is net so belangrik wat jy buite die skoolbanke leer. Die waardes wat jy byna soos suurstof inneem by \u2019n skool soos Gill is iets wat jy vir die res van jou lewe op gaan steun, selfs al vervaag die boekkennis dalk met die jare. \u201cMet hierdie waardes kan Gilliane \u2019n waardige en belangrike bydrae maak aan die land en w\u00eareld waarbinne hulle woon \u2013 nie net as \u2018grootmense\u2019 nie, maar onmiddellik,\u201d het Coetzer ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00e1 die toesprake is die Gill-lied in Engels en Afrikaans gesing en die onderhoofmeisie en hoofseun het kranse op die grafte van dr. Gill en mnr. Coppens gel\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die leerders het ook verjaardagkoek gekry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gill-Kollege het verskeie geleenthede gehou om hulle 150ste bestaansjaar te vier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Pretloop en bergfietswedren het op 8 Maart die verrigtinge begin. Janr\u00e9 Fourie, \u2019n gr. 10-leerder, was die wenner van die 5km pretdraf, terwyl Vukile Peta eerste in die 10km mans-resies was en Sphila Mapumulo die eerste vrou in die 10km was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgende was die Blits Kultuuraand op 11 Maart waar Gill gewys het dat hulle ook op kultuurgebied skitter met pragtige sang, voordrag, kort dramas en monolo\u00eb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leerders van die Ho\u00ebrskool Cradock het \u2019n haelbui trotseer en saam met die Gilliane kom optree. Volgens een van die Gill-onderwyseresse was dit \u201c\u2019n onverwagte en mooi gebaar van welwillendheid wat hoog op prys gestel word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skaterlag en gille van die opgewonde kinders het geheers by die pretdag en gala op 12 Maart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die waaghalse het die uitdaging van meganiese bul aangevat en daar is ook in netbal, vlugbal, raakrugby en sokker meegeding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gill het ook \u2019n 150m swem-kompetisie gehou. Twee Gill-spanne, sowel as die GBG, McCaughey\u2019s, Pierre and Co. and Rhi-spanne, het deelgeneem en hul resies voltooi. Rhi Farrell het as \u2019n eenman-span die 150 lengtes voltooi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
