Ouers van St. Helenabaai het hul ongelukkigheid uitgespreek oor die ho\u00ebrskoolsituasie in die dorp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die ontevrede ouers het die afgelope Vrydag (23 Augustus) na Vredenburg se onderwysdepartement-kantoor opgeruk om \u2019n memorandum te oorhandig in verband met die bou van \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool vir die leerders van St. Helenabaai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens die raadslid Thyrone Williams vra die gemeenskap die afgelope 20 jaar al vir die bou van \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool \u2013 sonder sukses. In die memorandum dui Williams aan daar ry tans 14 busse elke dag na Vredenburg na die onderskeie ho\u00ebrskole in die gebied. Williams meen die departement betaal miljoene rande vir busdienste terwyl die geld eerder gebruik kan word om \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool te bou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Ouer van St. Helenabaai, wat nie by name genoem wil word nie, s\u00ea die situasie is \u2019n sensitiewe een wat al \u2019n geruime tyd aankom en hulle verstaan nie hoekom ho\u00ebrskole in ander gebiede behalwe in St. Helenabaai is nie. Ouers s\u00ea grond is in 2014 al goedgekeur vir die bou van \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool, maar niks het sedertdien daarvan gekom nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Bronagh Hammond, \u2019n woordvoerder vir die Wes-Kaapse Onderwysdepartement, is \u2019n eiendom ge\u00efdentifiseer vir die potensi\u00eble toekomstige ontwikkeling van \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool in St. Helenabaai. \u201cDie perseel word tans deur die Wes-Kaapse regering verkry. Dit waarborg egter nie die onmiddellike ontwikkeling van \u2019n skool nie. Beskikbare geld, die betrokke munisipale dienste en beplannings- toestemmings moet ook verkry word. Dit moet alles ooreenstem voordat die ontwikkeling van \u2019n skool kan voortgaan. In hierdie stadium word nie vir die ontwikkeling van \u2019n nuwe ho\u00ebrskool in St. Helenabaai as \u2019n nuwe skoolprojek binne ons mediumtermynbe\u00adgrotingsraamwerk begroot nie,\u201d s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die ouer vertel weens misdaad is leerders bang om skool toe te gaan en so ver vervoer te word. \u201cDaar is nie plek vir leerders in skole nie en dit laat ons sit met baie kinders wat drop-outs<\/span> is en betrokke raak by dwelms en misdaad \u2013 nie omdat hulle wil nie, maar as gevolg van geen plek in skole nie. Jy as ouer sit met daai vrees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Die ouer s\u00ea ook baie wil hul kinders se buitemuurse aktiwiteite en skoolverga\u00adderings bywoon, maar het nie die luuksheid van vervoer na Vredenburg nie. \u201cMet die bou van \u2019n ho\u00ebrskool sal dit makliker en nader wees om al hierdie aktiwiteite by te woon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hammond voeg by dat vervoer tans verskaf word vir leerders van St. Helenabaai om skole in Vredenburg by te woon. \u201cAlle ho\u00ebrskool-leerders van St. Helenabaai word deur hierdie busse na die Ho\u00ebrskool Weston en die Ho\u00ebrskool Louwville vervoer. Leerdervervoer bly \u2019n kostedoeltreffende alternatief in die kort termyn.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ouers meen hul pleidooi moet ernstig opgeneem word en die departement moet intree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ouers van St. Helenabaai het hul ongelukkigheid uitgespreek oor die ho\u00ebrskoolsituasie in die
