N\u00c1 38 jaar en ses maande by die Laerskool Innes het die skoolhoof, Koos Brits (63), afgetree en sy kantoor verruil vir \u2019n plek sonder klokke, roos-ters, vergaderings en rooi penne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk het jonk en mooi hier begin, nou is ek nie meer jonk nie,\u201d merk Brits, wat sy onderwysloopbaan by di\u00e9 skool op Kariega begin het, skertsend op.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk was van die min gelukkiges in die onderwys wat al my bevorderings in dieselfde skool gekry het.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brits s\u00ea sy aanvanklike plan was om net vir twee jaar by Innes skool te hou en daarna wou hy terug Karoo toe, na sy geboortedorp Cradock. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMaar toe raak ek lief vir die skool en die dorp se mense en toe bly ek. Hierdie gemeenskap se rykdom is nie geld nie, hulle rykdom is hulle kinders.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brits het as jong onderwyser met Piet Geyer as sy skoolhoof by Innes begin. Hy is opgevolg deur Lood Prins, Lesley Stander en na hom het Brits di\u00e9 pos beklee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy s\u00ea \u2019n ware onderwyser is iemand wat passievol is oor onderwys en \u2019n positiewe verskil in leerders se lewens maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie een wat bevordering kry, is nie die een wat bloot sy of haar werk doen nie, maar die een wat m\u00e9\u00e9r doen, wat daardie ekstra myl stap.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wat hoogtepunte in sy loopbaan betref, s\u00ea Brits hy is trots dat hy die Protea krieketspeler Nantie Hayward as laerskoolkind kon afrig en dat hy \u2019n prominente rol vervul het in die oprigting van die skool se sport- en kultuursentrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brits het einde Junie afgetree. Sy vrou Linda, wat by die Ho\u00ebrskool Brandwag skoolgehou het, het twee jaar gelede afgetree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDit is nou \u2019n nuwe era in ons lewens. Ons hou daarvan om plekke te verken. Oktober wil ek gaan visvang by Henties en dan is daar natuurlik mos maar die bucket list <\/span>goed soos Namakwaland, Kgalagadi en sulke mooi plekke.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brits s\u00ea hy is ook oor halfpad met \u2019n boek waarin van sy saalopening-boodskappies saamgevat gaan word. \u201cEk het alles gehou en die bestes uitgesoek hiervoor.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy beskou homself as iemand met tien duime, maar tog gaan hy nou sy hand begin waag aan houtdraaiwerk met Leroy Smith van Jeffreysbaai as leermeester van hierdie nuwe tydver-dryf. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
