\u201cJUFFROU Rennie\u201d van Uitenhage, die eerste vrou in Suid-Afrika wat as \u2019n skoolhoof by \u2019n staatskool aangestel is, se 99ste verjaardag is op 11 November gevier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oudergewoonte het \u2019n paar van Phyllis Rennie se oud-kollegas, sowel as een van haar oud-leerders, die 84-jarige Rita Ricketts, haar op haar verjaardag verras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy was my standerd 3 onderwyser. By haar het ek die fyn kuns van naaldwerk geleer,\u201d s\u00ea Ricketts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Juffrou Rennie het haar onderwys-opleiding by Dower Kollege op Uitenhage voltooi en is tans die langslewende voormalige student van di\u00e9 kollege.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Haar eerste onderwyspos was by St. Joseph Prim\u00ear en daarna het sy by Jubilee Park Prim\u00eare Skool skoolgehou. In 1967 is sy aangestel as hoof van Jubilee Park Voorbereidingskool. Di\u00e9 aanstelling van Juffrou Rennie het bygedra dat Jubilee Park \u2019n skool van voorkeur was vir baie leerders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTe danke aan Juffrou Rennie, was daar in daardie tyd in graad 4 nie \u2019n enkele kind wat n\u00ed\u00e9 kon lees met begrip nie,\u201d s\u00ea Hamilton Petersen, \u2019n voormalige hoof van Jubilee Park Prim\u00eare Skool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAlmal ken haar as \u2019n baie standvastige mens vir wie dissipline eerste gekom het. Dit was ook vir haar belangrik om individuele aandag aan kinders te gee, om elke kind se naam te ken, te weet waar hulle bly, of hulle naels kort is en of hulle \u2019n sakdoek het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy was baie lief vir kinders en onder haar leierskap het die voorbereiding- en prim\u00eare skool se getalle gestyg met meer as 1 000 leerders,\u201d s\u00ea Petersen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buiten haar toegewydheid in die klaskamer het Juffrou Rennie ook musiek- en klavierlesse aangebied en sy was \u2019n ywerige tennisspeler. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy het ook \u2019n groot rol gespeel om \u2019n toneelgroep op die been te bring wat jaar na jaar die wenners van die destydse Rotari\u00eberfees was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Na meer as 40 jaar in die onderwys het sy in 1981 afgetree en was die orrelis by St Josephs Katolieke-kerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alhoewel haar geheue nie meer helder is nie, kan sy wel hier en daar dinge oor die verlede onthou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elke dag is \u2019n dag vol genade vir Juffrou Rennie. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
