Hermes Prim\u00ear het Vrydag 19 Okto\u00adber oudleerders en di\u00e9 wat tans matriekeksamen skryf by die skool onthaal om hulle sterkte toe te wens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Vingerete is bedien en \u2019n motive\u00adrings\u00adpraatjie is deur Shuneen van Niekerk (27) van Atlantis gehou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shuneen moes as vyfjarige destyds by familie in Atlantis kom woon nadat haar ma wreed vermoor is. Sy het haar skoolloopbaan by Grosvenor Prim\u00ear begin. Sy het later as negejarige haar pa ook verloor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 terugslag het haar nie ondergekry nie en sy was tot gr. 9 \u2019n leerder by Saxon Sea Sekond\u00ear tot sy \u2019n beurs van die Transnet Nasionale Hawe-owerheid (TNPA) ontvang het om haar skoolloop\u00adbaan in Simonstad te voltooi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit was \u2019n groot aanpassing vir my, want alles was in Engels en ek moes ook in die koshuis bly \u2013 weg van my familie en vriende. Daar was tye wat dit baie moeilik was omdat ons \u2019n baie hegte familie was, maar ek het deurgedruk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn 2009 het ek in Simonstad gematri\u00adkuleer. In di\u00e9 jaar was ek bevoorreg om van Kaapstad tot Durban te seil en dit was \u2019n onvergeetlike ervaring. Dit is waar my liefde vir bote en die see begin het, want voor dit het ek geen praktiese ervaring gehad nie, behalwe dit wat ons in die klas geleer het.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2010 het sy by die Kaapse Skierei\u00adland-Universiteit vir Tegnologie se Granger Bay-kampus begin waar sy maritieme-studies gestudeer het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2012 het sy as \u2019n kadet by SA Agulhas aangesluit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het die voorreg gehad om Antarktika te besoek en ook vir Prins Charles van Engeland te ontmoet. Ek het vir 16 maande my seeprakties gedoen en het minstens tien lande gesien.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2014 het sy haar \u201cseetyd\u201d voltooi en in 2016 het sy verder gaan studeer en haar diploma in maritieme-studies voltooi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy is tans in Kaapstad gestasioneer en werk op die sleepbote. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Haar toekomsplanne is om \u2019n sleepbootkaptein te wees en oor vyf jaar hopelik \u2019n loods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
