\u2019n Passie vir die gemeenskap en \u2019n begeerte om meer te doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 eienskappe het daartoe gelei dat Zo\u00eb Barends (18) as junior burgemeester van Saldanhabaai-munisipaliteit aangewys is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 graad 11-leerder aan die Ho\u00ebrskool Weston is die tweede junior burgemeester vir die munisipale gebied. Zo\u00eb meen hoewel sy baie senuweeagtig is oor die uitdagings wat met die titel as junior burgemeester gepaard gaan, sien sy daarna uit om \u2019n verskil te maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is baie ge\u00ebrd om die titel te h\u00ea, maar niemand het \u2019n titel nodig om werklik \u2019n verskil in hul gemeenskap te maak nie. My passie is om vir jong mense te wys daar is beter dinge om jou mee besig te hou as drank, dwelms en tienerswangerskap,\u201d s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eunice Adonisi, ko\u00f6rdineerder van die juniorraad, s\u00ea Zo\u00eb se gretigheid om mense te help, spruit uit die voorbeeld wat haar verpleegster-ma en krieketklublid-pa aan haar gestel het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zo\u00eb se ouer suster was ook \u2019n lid van die eerste juniorraad wat in 2017 verkies is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die tiener s\u00ea haar groot plan is om haar portuurgroep te wys daar is meer in skoolgaan as om net die skoolbanke vol te sit, maar liewer om iets met die geleentheid van opvoeding te maak. Sy meen sport is n\u00f3g \u2019n dryfveer vir jeug\u00adontwikkeling aangesien sport \u2019n geleent\u00adheid aan jongmense bied om uit te styg. \u201cEk was lid van die skool se meisiesrugbyspan en het gehelp om \u2019n stapklub te begin,\u201d vertel sy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zo\u00eb se ander buitemuurse aktiwiteite sluit noodhulp in wat sy sekerlik as voorbereiding vir haar toekoms sien, aangesien sy n\u00e1 skool in die mediese veld wil gaan werk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens haar vriendin, die junior speaker Shanelle de Villiers (19), is Zo\u00eb die ideale kandidaat vir die pos aangesien sy \u2019n omgeehart het. \u201cSy gee baie om vir haar gemeenskap. Sy is ook nie bang om haar mening te lug nie en ek dink die planne wat sy het is beslis in pas met wat ons (as die jeug) nodig het,\u201d meen Shanelle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adonisi s\u00ea een van Zo\u00eb se gehalte-eienskappe wat haar die meeste be\u00efndruk, is die inisiatief wat sy neem om self \u2019n verskil te maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Noudat Jeugmaand sy einde nader, sal die Saldanhabaai-gemeenskap moet wag en sien wat Zo\u00eb en haar junior raad in hul termyn gaan vermag <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
