Avianpark Prim\u00ear se hoof, Christopher Africa, tree eersdaags af. <\/p>\n
Africa is as hoof van die skool aangestel in dieselfde jaar as wat die skool sy deure in 2010 geopen het.<\/p>\n
Hy bieg dat hy in die eerste plek nie \u2019n onderwyser wou word nie. <\/p>\n
\u201cEk wou iets heeltemal anders gaan studeer het, maar my geldsake het dit nie destyds moontlik gemaak nie. Toe besluit ek maar op onderwys en kry toe my Diploma 3 in onderwys. My loopbaan as onderwyser en skoolhoof was die beste jare van my lewe tot dusver.<\/p>\n
\u201cVoordat ek hier begin het, is \u2019n waarnemende hoof aangestel. Ek het my pos as hoof van Avianpark Prim\u00ear op 1 Junie 2010 betree,\u201d verduidelik hy. <\/p>\n
Africa het sy loopbaan in die onderwys in 1988 begin met sy eerste aanstelling in Grootbrakrivier. Daarna het hy poste by baie ander skole beklee en is op een tydstip afgel\u00ea.<\/p>\n
\u201cEk is selfs eenkeer afgel\u00ea. Destyds het dit mos s\u00f3 gewerk \u2013 die laaste ou in is die eerste uit, en ongelukkig was ek toe laaste in. <\/p>\n
\u201cMaar in daai tydperk het ek verder gaan studeer,\u201d vertel Africa. <\/p>\n
Hy s\u00ea ook hy het oor die jare heen kinders in allerhande vakke onderrig.<\/p>\n
\u201cEk het baie vakke gegee. Ek hou van skool hou en veral om klas te gee. Ek het nog tot hierdie jaar natuurwetenskap en tegnologie-lesse by die skool gegee.\u201d <\/p>\n
Africa meen hy het homself altyd tot die beste van sy vermo\u00eb aangewend en het die ekstra myl gestap om op hoogte van die voortdurende veranderings in die onderwys te bly.<\/p>\n
\u201cEk het altyd probeer om by al die veranderings aan te pas. Ek het gereeld kursusse bygewoon om myself te bemagtig om die veranderings makliker baas te raak.\u201d <\/p>\n
Vir nou sluit sy aftreeplanne \u2019n bietjie reis en baie rus in.<\/p>\n
\u201cEn dalk ook \u2019n bietjie houtwerk . . .<\/p>\n
\u201cEk gaan gewis nie stagneer nie, maar ek dink ook nie ek sal weer by \u2019n skool instap om te gaan klasgee nie. Ek het te lekker by Avianpark gewerk en dink nie ek gaan sommer weer sulke goeie kollegas kry nie.\u201d <\/p>\n
Aan die huidige leerders by die skool wil hy graag die volgende boodskap gee: \u201cEnigeen kan bo hul omstandighede uitstyg. Ek self kom uit moeilike omstandighede, maar dit hang van jouself af wat jy doen. Moenie laat dinge jou inperk nie; jy kan enigiets word. Aan die ouers en die res van die gemeenskap wil ek dankie s\u00ea dat julle so puik en ondersteunend was.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hy is ook dankbaar vir kollegas wat sy jare as hoof van Avianpark Prim\u00ear die beste jare van sy loopbaan gemaak het. \u201cDankie aan my kollegas. Ek sou met niemand anders wou werk nie. Dit was vir my lekker om soggens werk toe te gaan en in die personeelkamer aan te kom. Ek vertrou dat julle almal voorspoed op jul paadjies sal ervaar. Baie dankie vir die laaste twaalf jaar. Soos hulle s\u00ea \u2013 \u2019n hoof is net so goed soos sy personeel, en julle was die beste.\u201d <\/p>\n
Wanneer die skole volgende week vir die jaar sluit, sal dit ook Africa se laaste dag as hoof en onderwyser wees. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
