N\u00e1 altesaam 26 opwindende jare in die onderwys, skop Cecile de Villiers, Langerugskool in Worcester se hoof, uiteindelik haar skoene uit en maak haarself reg vir aftrede.<\/p>\n
De Villiers noem Worcester haar tuiste sedert 1987 nadat haar man \u2019n pediatriepraktyk in die dorp oopgemaak het, en sy eers vir \u2019n klompie jare vir hom gewerk het.<\/p>\n
In 1997 het sy besluit om die onderwys te betree, en in die rigting te werk waarvoor sy studeer het.<\/p>\n
\u201cEk het by Pionierskool in \u2019n pos afgelos as \u2019n berader, en is toe in 2002 permanent aangestel as \u2019n Afrikaanse onderwyser,\u201d volgens haar.<\/p>\n
Van 2002 tot 2014 het di\u00e9 passievolle skoolhoof die leer geklim tot adjunkhoof van Pionierskool.<\/p>\n
Nadat die skool die nuus ontvang het van die Wes-Kaapse onderwysdepartement (WKOD) dat die skool nie meer leerders met leerhindernisse kan huisves nie, is sy in Julie 2015 as die hoof van die nuut gevestigde Langerugskool aangestel, \u2019n skool vir leerders met leerhindernisse soos outisme of disleksie.<\/p>\n
\u201cPionierskool het destyds leerders met allerhande leerhindernisse en gestremdhede gehuisves, maar toe die skool die nuus kry van die WKOD dat die Pionierskool net aangewend gaan word vir meervoudiggestremde leerders is Langerugskool gebou,\u201d volgens De Villiers.<\/p>\n
In Januarie 2015 het sy, \u2019n handjie vol leerders en personeellede die skool vir die eerste keer betree en van daar af gewerskaf om die skool op te bou tot wat dit vandag is.<\/p>\n
\u201cOns het nie eers \u2019n naam gehad met die opening van die skool nie, maar het toe later besluit op Langerugskool omdat die leerders met leerhindernisse op die Langerugkampus van die Pionierskool se gronde klasgeloop het, saam met die swaksiende leerders,\u201d volgens De Villiers. <\/p>\n
Vandag spog die skool met 172 leerders nadat dit begin het met 125, \u00e9n \u2019n skoollied geskryf deur Johan Groenwald, \u2019n bekende liedjieskrywer in Worcester.<\/p>\n
De Villiers het verduidelik dat Langerugskool haar \u201clewe\u201d was, en dat sy die leerders en personeel van di\u00e9 skool baie sal mis.<\/p>\n
\u201cDit was \u2019n voorreg om te werk by Langerugskool, en om die leerders te ondersteun om hul potensiaal te bereik,\u201d het sy ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n
Volgens haar het sy dit baie geniet om \u201cplanne te beraam en te kyk wat die skool n\u00f3g kan probeer om na leerders se behoeftes te voorsien\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cDaar was nie een dag wat ooit dieselfde was nie, en al het ek planne vit \u2019n spesifieke dag gehad, het dit nooit so uitgewerk nie, het die skoolhoof laggend ges\u00ea, en verduidelik dat sy daardie opwinding verseker sal mis.<\/p>\n
De Villiers het op Caledon grootgeword en gematrikuleer waarna sy toe haar studies in onderwys voortgesit het by Universiteit Stellenbosch en toe later by die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika (Unisa).<\/p>\n
Sy groet die skool m\u00f4re (30 Junie) waarna sy haar en haar gesin se gastehuise tussen Stanford en Caledon sal bestuur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
