Reflecting on a Busy and Successful Year

As we reflect on the past year, it has been a time of immense activity and remarkable achievements for Paul Roos Gimnasium and its extended community, particularly our Old Boys. The photo above shows learners leaving the school after their last paper with the 2024 Annual Report in their hands. This report will undoubtedly become an important reference for them in the future.

Net so is die Old Boys Nuusblog van groot waarde, met sy dekking sedert 2015 aan die prestasies van oudskoliere oor ‘n wye verspreiding van jaargroepe. Maak gerus gebruik van die verwysings onderaan elke berig na soortgelyke stories in die verlede om die geheue weer te verfris.

There are various ways our Old Boys can give back to their alma mater, such as becoming involved with the Paul Roos 150 Trust Fund and Klub 1000. These initiatives provide vital support for maintaining the school’s infrastructure and academic excellence and to strengthen the bond between us. Another example of how pleasure and commitment can be combined, is the highly successful golf and boules day hosted by the Old Boys Rugby Committee. We are eagerly anticipating the PRG Classic next year, which promises to be another fantastic event.

Sukses word nie net gemeet aan trofeë en toekennings nie, maar aan die groei en ontwikkeling van ons studente, die versterking van ons gemeenskapsbande en die blywende nalatenskap waaraan ons bou. Dit gaan oor ‘n oupa en kleinseun wat ‘n passie vir rugby deel, vier Old Boys wat ‘n nasionale groep vir prestasie-ontwikkeling in hokkie haal, ‘n talentvolle jong man wat belangrike besluite oor sy toekoms moet neem, ‘n professor wat danksy sy toewyding aan sy student met ‘n eredoktorsgraad vereer is en ‘n fietsryer wat na sy te vroeë dood onthou word as digkuns in beweging.

As we look forward, we are reminded that the journey is just as important as the destination. The values we uphold, the relationships we forge, and the impact we make on those around us are the true markers of success. Let us continue to celebrate each other’s efforts, support one another, and remain united in our pursuit of excellence. Here’s to another year of growth, achievement, and shared purpose.

Geseënde Kersfees en Voorspoedige Nuwe Jaar! Matrieks, ons hou vir julle duim vas.

New Parents and Old Boys Taking Hands at Klub 1000

KLUB 1000 at Paul Roos Gimnasium is more than just a fundraising initiative; it’s a community that brings together new parents and Old Boys with social networking benefits for all its members.

Every year, many new parents join the school environment and it is important to walk a path with them while nurturing and developing their sons’ aspirations for the future. Paul Roos strives to offer those who are not old learners a chance to be involved and part of the Paul Roos experience.

KLUB 1000 creates a space that ensures no new parent ever feels excluded. It offers parents the opportunity to shake hands and share a glass of wine with other parents and Old Boys while supporting the school and its scholars. In a nutshell, KLUB 1000 is inclusive of new parents as well as Old Boys. It provides the best of both worlds!

Social and Fundraising Events

KLUB 1000 hosts social and fundraising events throughout the year. Profits are utilized to fund special projects involving the upgrading and maintenance of infrastructure at the school, wherever the need or shortfall may be. Be assured that all funds are spent to better the future of Paul Roos Gymnasium.

One of the highlights this year was that after all the home games at Markötter, KLUB 1000 members, PRG parents, and guests from other schools were hosted outside the Markötter Long Room with live music and boerewors rolls.

Annual Potjiekos Competition

The annual potjiekos competition held on 4 March was a great success with 22 potjies entered and more than 200 parents attending the event. We look forward to next year’s potjiekos competition on 1 March 2025. More information will be available once the school reopens.

We wish all our members and supporters a blessed festive season and family time and look forward to continuing the tradition next year.

You can be part of our future – Help make central air-conditioning systems possible at school

The vision of the Paul Roos 150 Trust Fund is to maintain academic excellence at Paul Roos Gymnasium despite the challenges to quality education in South Africa. The Trust Fund aims to secure the future of the school as an institution of superior instruction for generations to come.

The Paul Roos 150 Trust Fund has agreed to provide financial support for the installation of central air-conditioning systems that will serve all classrooms, administrative offices, as well as the Japie Krige hall and PRG Centrum.

Stellenbosch experiences extremely high summer temperatures and humidity, which may affect our learners’ ability to concentrate. After careful consideration of the merits of a proposal received from the school, the Trust decided to support the installation of central air-conditioning systems as it will help to create a conducive learning environment.

Established in 2014, the Trust Fund was created to provide financial support to PRG for capital-intensive projects. The Trust is committed to helping maintain and uphold the school’s academic excellence to secure the school for future generations.

Through donations and fundraising projects, the Trust has assisted the school with various projects, the most recent of which was the upgrading of the Science Laboratories and the installation of an additional backup power supply.

This project will entail a significant capital outlay, and the Trustees are hoping that Old Boys, parents, and other donors would be willing to co-contribute to this initiative.

For further information, please refer to the below link:

It is important to note that donations to the Trust are tax-deductible, and Section 18A certificates will be issued. The Paul Roos 150 Trust Fund’s bank details will be supplied upon request.

Paul Roos Gimnasium goed verteenwoordig in hoëprestasie hokkiespan

Paul Roos Gimnasium is goed verteenwoordig in die groep van 41 spelers wat op 20 November aangewys is om deel van ‘n  hoëprestasie Suid-Afrikaanse span tevorm. Reuben Sendzul (Matriek 2024), en Old Boys Andrew Hobson (2016), Niel Raath (2019) en Hans Neethling (2020) is almal daar.

Die groep berei voor om Suid-Afrika te verteenwoordig by die FIH Nations Cup in 2025 en die Afrika-toernooi later, met die doel om te kwalifiseer vir die FIH Wêreldbeker in 2026. Dit is ‘n opwindende tyd vir Suid-Afrikaanse hokkie met ‘n mengsel van ervare spelers en nuwe talente wat deur die geledere kom!

Following in his grandfather’s footsteps: Samuel Badenhorst

Samuel Badenhorst, an 18-year-old matric learner at Paul Roos Gimnasium, aspires to follow in the footsteps of his legendary grandfather, Jan Boland Coetzee, a former Springbok flank and renowned figure in the wine industry. Inspired by his grandfather’s toughness and fearless play under the mentorship of Danie Craven, Samuel has already made a mark in rugby, playing for the South African U18B sevens team and winning a bronze medal at the Commonwealth Youth Games. This year, he played for the South African U18A team, defeating Georgia. Samuel dreams of playing for the Junior Boks and, ultimately, the Springboks.

During a visit to his grandfather’s home in Stellenbosch, Samuel shared his ambitions with Marguerite van Wyk of Rapport, while reflecting on the pride and influence his grandfather has had on his rugby journey. Jan Boland Coetzee, despite the visible signs of aging, still takes great pride in his grandson’s achievements and follows his rugby career closely. Samuel plans to enjoy his rugby first before pursuing further studies, focusing on his goal of donning the Green and Gold jersey one day.

Riley Norton: A rising star beyond Paul Roos Gimnasium

Photo Credit: Charmaine Stander/Supersport Schools

Riley Norton, 2023/24 headboy, an exceptional young athlete at Paul Roos Gimnasium, has made a name for himself in both cricket and rugby. However, it was the Springboks’ success that nudged him to choose rugby over cricket. Born into a sports-loving family in Stellenbosch, Riley has been actively involved in sports from a young age. His father, Chris Norton, a former Western Province rugby player, and his two older brothers have been significant influences on his sporting journey.

Despite his outstanding performance in cricket, including being named the CSA Boys’ U16 Player of the Tournament in 2022, Riley decided to focus on rugby. His dedication and hard work have earned him a place in the high-performance squad for the SA U19 TAP (Talent Acceleration Programme) camp, giving him a chance to be selected for the U19 World Cup 2024 and a Bangladesh tour. Riley continues to inspire his peers and younger athletes at Paul Roos Gimnasium with his passion and commitment to rugby.

Kom wys jou slag op die Noord-Suid Toernooi

Paul Roos Gimnasium gaan aanstaande jaar ‘n kernrol speel in die NMI Toyota Noord-Suid Rugbytoernooi, wat van 28 Maart tot 1 April 2025 op die Markötter-sportterrein in Stellenbosch gehou word.

Dié toernooi, een van Suid-Afrika se voorste skoolseunrugbyfeeste, word vir die eerste keer in sy bestaan deur ‘n Suid-skool aangebied. Toprugbyskole van regoor die land gaan deelneem en  ‘n fantastiese platform bied vir jong talent om hul vaardighede ten toon te stel.

As gasheer sal Paul Roos Gimnasium nie net die fasiliteite verskaf nie, maar ook bydra tot die organisasie en gladde verloop van die toernooi. Dit is ‘n wonderlike geleentheid vir die skool om te skitter en vir die spelers om waardevolle ervaring in ‘n mededingende omgewing op te doen.

Maar daar is vir die Old Boys ook kans om te wys wat nog in hulle steek. Met  die openingsfunksie op Donderdag 27 Maart gaan verskeie skole se oudsterre teen mekaar speel. PRG se Oud-Skoliere speel teen Affies s’n.

Die jongste nuus is die belangstelling is so groot dat twee bykomende spanne saamgestel gaan word. Jy moet ouer as 35 en op die Donderdag beskikbaar wees as jy wil speel. Kontak die Oudskoliere-unie vir meer besonderhede.

Paul Roos se bydrae word onthou

Jaarliks besoek familielede, die rektor en leerderleiers die graf van Paul Roos, die man na wie Paul Roos Gimnasium vernoem is, op 30 Oktober, sy geboortedag. Hierdie tradisie is ‘n pragtige manier om sy nalatenskap te eer en te verseker dat sy bydraes nie vergeet word nie.

Paul Roos was ‘n uitstaande onderwyser en opvoeder wat sy lewe gewy het aan die bevordering van onderwys in Suid-Afrika. Sy passie vir onderrig en sy onwrikbare verbintenis tot akademiese uitnemendheid het die weg gebaan vir die stigting van die skool wat sy naam dra. Hy sou ongetwyfeld baie trots gewees het op al die prestasies van die skool, wat nou 74 onderwysers in diens het en byna 1300 leerders huisves. Paul Roos Gimnasium gaan voort om sy nalatenskap van uitnemendheid en toewyding aan onderwys te handhaaf.

Benewens sy bydrae tot onderwys, het Paul Roos ook ‘n belangrike rol gespeel as die kaptein van die Suid-Afrikaanse rugbytoerspan na Brittanje in 1906. Nie net hy die naam Springbokke vir hulle geskep nie, maar ook die span gelei tot prestasies op die rugbyveld wat ‘n beduidende rol gespeel het om die land na die verwoesting van die Anglo-Boereoorlog saam te snoer. Vandag nog versterk die Springbok-embleem nasionale trots en eenheid, en help dit om  in ‘n nuwe era samehorigheid en vooruitgang te bevorder.

Saam met die hoofleiers, staan mnr AC Blume, rektor André Van Staden en me Johandrie Kriek.

Semper ‘n goeie maatstaf van hoe die volgende geslag dink

Dit was goed om in Oktober weer  ‘n Semper te sien verskyn, want as ‘ n maatstaf vir kritieke denke onder die opkomende generasies het hy eintlik nie ‘n gelyke nie. Besorgdheid oor biodiversiteit, die impak van rekenaarspeletjies en nog baie meer word onthul.

In die jongste uitgawe sien ons weemoed by die Klas van 2024 wat moet tot siens sê. Gelukkig kon hulle dit op ‘n glorieryke manier doen en met trots die skoolterrein verlaat.

Dit lyk of die oupas goeie invloed het op hul kleinkinders wat musieksmaak betref. Onder die liedjies in die repertoire van die PRG Senior Band is die BeeGees se Staying Alive. Watter groot treffer was hul musiek en John Travolta se danspassies nie in die laat sewentigs nie. Daar is ook talle ander lekker ou liedjies wat dit die moeite werd gaan maak om hulle te ondersteun as hulle naby jou optree.

As jy gewonder het wat vanjaar se matrieks aanstaande jaar gaan doen, sal jy ook die antwoord in hierdie uitgawe vind. Dat sowat 70 persent Maties wil word, is seker nie verrassend nie, maar dalk die rigting waarin hulle wil studeer.

Kom meer te wete oor Ben-Jason Dixon (2016), PRG se 56ste Springbok, veral oor wanneer die senuwees die ergste begin knaag voor jou eerste toets.

Die nuwe hoofseun, Simeon Rudolph, en  onderhoofseuns, Altus Rabe en Liam de Silva, word ook uitgevra oor ander meer wat ‘n suksesvolle jaar vir hulle sal behels.

Dit en veel meer wag op lesers as hulle hier klik.

Semper: A Good Measure of How the Next Generation Thinks

It was great to see a new edition of Semper appear again in October. As a measure of critical thinking among the coming generations, it doesn’t actually have an equal. This edition reveals concerns about biodiversity, the impact of computer games, and much more.

In the latest edition, we witness the melancholy of the Class of 2024 as they bid farewell. Fortunately, they were able to do so gloriously and leave the school grounds with pride.

Grandfathers seem to have a good influence on their grandchildren when it comes to musical tastes. Among the songs in the repertoire of the PRG Senior Band is the Bee Gees’ “Staying Alive”. What a huge hit their music and John Travolta’s dance moves were in the late seventies. There are also numerous other classic hits that make it worth supporting them if they perform near you.

If you were wondering what this year’s matrics will do next year, you’ll find the answer in this issue. While it might not be surprising that about 70 percent want to become Maties, the directions in which they want to study might be.

Also, find out more about Ben-Jason Dixon (2016), PRG’s 56th Springbok, especially about when the nerves start to gnaw at their worst before your first Test.

The new head boy, Simeon Rudolph, and vice-head boys, Altus Rabe and Liam de Silva, share their thoughts on what will make their year successful.

This and much more await readers. Click here to read the full edition.

Seniors se middagete lekker gesellig

Die jaarlikse Senior Old Boys’ midddagete, wat op Vrydag, 8 November 2024, by Markötter plaasgevind het, was weer eens ‘n reuse-sukses met hope pret… maar soos dit met sulke dinge gaan, het die stories net daar in die lokaal agtergebly.

Die foto’s moet die verhaal die keer vertel. Dit lyk sommer baie lekker en gesellig.

Iemand wou weet wie die ete mag bywoon. Lede van al die jaargroepe tussen 1950 tot 1969 is genooi, maar moes vir hulle en hul gades voor of op 4 November bespreek.

PRG OBU Rugby Committee Golf (and Boules) Day: A Great Success

On Thursday, 14 November, the PRG OBU Rugby Committee hosted an exceptional day of golf at the Stellenbosch Golf Club. With 144 golfers taking to the course, the action was intense, but a range of prizes and refreshment stations kept the players motivated throughout the day. The event aimed to celebrate a special rugby season and contribute to the continued success of the team both on and off the pitch.

The four-ball package, priced at R5500, included a delightful dinner, during which an entertaining auction helped boost the club’s funds. The PRG OBU Rugby Committee extends sincere gratitude to all the supporters and sponsors who made this event possible.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making the first PRG OBU Rugby Committee Golf Day Ladies Boules on the same day at the same venue a reality!

Markus Reuter nuwe toevoeging tot eredoktorandi-lys

Prof Markus Reuter (1976) het in November by PRG kom kuier en vir die eerste keer gesien hoe pryk sy naam op die lys van oud-skoliere wat ‘n eredoktorsgraad van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch ontvang het.

Hy het die graad Doktor in die Ingenieurswese (DIng) honoris causa in 2017 ontvang vir sy uitmuntende bydrae tot die wetenskap, tegnologie en bedryf van metaalproduksie, herwinning en hulpbrondoeltreffendheid, en sy volgehoue bemagtiging van jong ingenieurs om die volgende generasie denkleiers te word en die taak oor te neem om ’n volhoubare toekoms vir almal te verseker.

Willie Engelbrecht (1980) was een van SA se grootste fietsryers

Die nuus dat Willie Engebrecht onverwags op 1 Desember oorlede is, het heelwat kommentaar en meegevoel uitgelok. Willie (Klas van 1980) word beskou as een van die beste fietsryers wat Suid-Afrika nog opgelewer het. Hy het tussen 1988 en 1994 die Argus-fietstoer vyf keer in sewe jaar gewen. Hy het ook die Rapport-toer in 1990 gewen en het die bronsmedalje in die padwedren in 1994 op die Statebondspele in Kanada verower. Hy het ook in die laat tagtigerjare en vroeë negentigerjare aan Europese wedrenne deelgeneem.

Heelwat huldeblyke het ingestroom kort na die nuus van sy dood bekend geword het, maar hierdie een van die sportskrywer Colin Hoffman,op Facebook vat dit veral mooi saam:

“Willie het gedurende sy loopbaan as mededingende fietsryer ongelooflike plesier aan sy ondersteuners en selfs opponente verskaf. Daar was niks mooier as om Willie op volle vaart te sien wanneer hy besluit het om ‘n uitdaging te rig en sy opponente te toets.

“Dit was soos die Engelse sê, “poetry in motion”. Dit was asof hy en sy fiets een geword het. Niks anders as daardie blink en atleties-gevormde bene en die wiele het beweeg. Die gemak waarmee hy onder sy teenstanders kon uitry, het jou soms na jou asem laat snak.

“Dit was nie ‘n bakleiery met die fiets soos baie ryers lyk asof dit ‘n sak aartappels is wat bo wil bly nie. Nee, Willie was ‘n prentjie. ‘n Prentjie wat in jou gedagtes gebly het.

“As fietsryer het hy ongelooflike sukses behaal en kan ongetwyfeld as een van Suid-Afrika se suksesvolste pad- én baanryers beskou word. Met sy bykans filmster-uiterlike en ‘n blonde boskaas, het hy altyd uitgestaan. Hy het ‘n teenwoordigheid sonder weerga gehad.

“My eie pad met Willie strek so ver terug as 1984 toe hy gedurende ‘n skof van die Rapport Toer op Newcastle in die naelrit na die eindstreep agter in die televisiemotor vasgejaag, geval en sy sleutelbeen gebreek het. Hy het die volgende dag moedig probeer om aan te gaan, maar moes later die handdoek ingooi weens die pyn.

“Ons het daarna eintlik goeie vriende geraak en ek glo ek het gehelp om hom uiteindelik sover te kry om Stellenbosch vir Johannesburg te verruil. Dit is waar die aksie was en toe hy uiteindelik dié stap geneem het, het sy loopbaan van krag tot krag gegaan.

“In 1987 het hy en Mark Beneke die Goudstad vir België verruil waar hulle vir die ADR-span gery het. Dieselfde span vir wie die Amerikaner Greg LeMond in 1989 gery en sy derde Tour de France-titel verower het toe hy in die epiese laaste skof ‘n agterstand van 52 sekondes op die Fransman Laurent Fignon in die individuele tydtoets tot in Parys in ‘n toersege van slegs 8 sekondes omskep het.

“Met Suid-Afrika se amptelike hertoetrede tot die internasionale sportarena in 1992, het hy in 1994 in Kanada die eerste medalje vir Suid-Afrika by die Statebondspele losgejaag toe hy brons in die padwedren verower het.

“Hy is daarna op onverklaarbare en selfsugtige optredes deur die destyds Suid-Afrikaanse Fietsryfederasie (SAFF) uit die span gelaat vir die Olimpiese Spele in 1996 in Atlanta, wat ook ‘n vroeë beëindiging van sy loopbaan beteken het. Op 34 het hy nog baie gehad om te bied, maar die outokratiese manier waarop hy hanteer is deur ‘m klomp ego-honger beamptes het hom laat besluit genoeg is genoeg. (Lees binnekort meer daarvan in die boek wat ek en Chris Willemse eersdaags die lig sal laat sien oor die geskiedenis van Suid-Afrikaanse fietsry.)

Hy het daarna ook as sakeman ontpop en ‘n uiters suksesvolle besigheid in Bellville op die been gebring. “
