Dr. Anel Pepler, \u2019n grondlegger van preprim\u00eare onderrig in die vallei en die stigter van die Dwergiebos-preprim\u00eare skool in Wellington, het op 6 Maart \u2019n foto met die interessante geskiedenis van die totstandkoming van hierdie skool aan die huidige skoolhoof van Doemsie Kampus, Marn\u00e9 Louw, oorhandig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dwergiebos is sedert 2017 die Doemsie-kampus van die Hugenote Laerskool en die geleentheid waartydens die oorhandiging plaasgevind het, is deur die bestuur van Hugenote Laerskool, hul skoolbeheerliggaam-verteenwoordigers (SBL) en Steven von Schlicht, een van Dwergiebos se voormalige ouers en \u2019n verteenwoordiger van die plaaslike ATKV-tak, bygewoon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stephan Herz, die skoolhoof van Hugenote Laerskool, sowel as Marn\u00e9 Louw het hul waardering teenoor dr. Pepler uitgespreek vir haar diep voetspore waarin hulle moet volg en benadruk dat dit groot skoene is wat hulle moet volstaan. Wat begin het as \u2019n eenman- (of eenvrou-) skooltjie het gegroei tot \u2019n allemintige skool met sewe onderwyseresse en nege klaskamers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een van die heel eerste leerders het ook aan dr. Pepler hulde gebring. Jaomi Zeeman, tans \u2019n SBL-lid en onderwyseres by Hugenote Laerskool, het vertel van die passie en deursettingsvermo\u00eb waarmee dr. Pepler destyds die totstandkoming van die skool aangepak het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy het vrou-alleen, in \u2019n tyd toe dit nie eintlik die norm was dat vroue dinge alleen aanpak nie, die hele gemeenskap gemobiliseer om met die totstandkoming van die skool te help. Die impak wat dit op onderrig in die dorp gehad het, is gelykstaande aan al die ander groot rolspelers in die vestiging van opvoeding en onderrig in Wellington se bydraes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDr. Pepler is een van die reuse op wie se skouers die opvoedkundige instellings in die dorp vandag staan. Mense soos sy het \u2019n geweldige invloed op die vorming van baie lewens gehad en wat sy opgerig het, staan as \u2019n monument vir latere geslagte,\u201d het Jaomi ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elzette Pool, dr. Pepler se dogter, het vertel hoe die skool n\u00e1 die afsterwe van hul vader hul eintlike huis geword het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie hele dag is gewoonlik daar deurgebring. Saans onthou ek hoe my ma by my en my suster op die vloer gesit en studeer het \u2013 iets wat haar uiteindelik haar doktorsgraad laat verwerf het. My waardering en bewondering vir \u2019n ma wat vrou-alleen haar kinders grootgemaak het, \u2019n plaas bedryf en \u2019n skool begin en gestuur het, is oneindig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy het uiteindelik haar loopbaan as dosent by die KSUT in Wellington afgesluit, waar sy honderde preprim\u00eare onderwyseresse opgelei het,\u201d het Elzette ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die seremonie het die oorhandiging van die geraamde foto met die geskiedenis van die skool sowel as \u2019n geskenk van Hugenote Laerskool aan dr. Pepler ingesluit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tydens dr. Pepler se spreekbeurt het sy vertel dat dit nie \u2019n droom was om iets groot staan te maak nie, maar bloot \u2019n behoefte om te werk, sowel as die drang om in die ontwikkeling van jonger kinders te bel\u00ea, wat haar destyds gedryf het om die skool tot stand te bring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVroue kon destyds nie in poste aangestel word wanneer hulle trou nie. Deur my eie skool te begin, kon ek hierdie re\u00ebl van die departement omseil en steeds aanhou werk. Om met kinders te werk en hulle te onderrig en \u2019n blywende impak op hul toekoms te maak, was my ander dryfveer,\u201d het dr. Pepler vertel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens haar sou haar projek n\u00earens gekom het sonder die hulp en insette van die hele gemeenskap nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie hele gemeenskap het saamgestaan en ons kon uiteindelik vanuit die klein begin in die Voortrekkersaaltjie skuif na die perseel waar die skool tans is. Die kerke, die plaaslike Lions, die boerevereniging, die VLV, die munisipaliteit, die ACVV en talle lede van die gemeenskap het hand bygesit en met hul kundigheid en hulpbronne saamgespan om die droom waar te maak,\u201d het dr. Pepler ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toe die departement van onderwys gr. R en gr. RR verpligtend maak, moes skole amalgameer, en daaruit is die Doemsie-kampus gebore. Die nuwe naam is \u2019n verwysing na die Doemsa-simbool van Hugenote Ho\u00ebrskool, wat veral by interskole gebruik word. Met die nuwe naam het die voormalige Dwergiebos dus deel van die Hugenote-familie geword. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens dr. Pepler was sy aanvanklik effens hartseer toe die naam Dwergiebos vir \u2019n nuwe naam plek moes maak. Sy is egter nou tevrede en trots op die manier waarop op haar nalatenskap voorgebou word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMy hart is gerusgestel en ek voel trots om die grondlegger van hierdie instansie te wees wat vandag uit sy nate bars, en te kon ervaar hoe fenomenaal die groei plaasgevind het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBaie dankie aan julle wat voorvat en steeds uitbou,\u201d was haar boodskap aan die personeel, van wie die meeste as studente ook onder haar leiding studeer het. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
