Merkwaardige stories word in hierdie uitgawe van die PRG Old Boys Nuusblog – die eerste van 2021 – vertel, waarvan een ‘n kragtige getuigskrif vir ons Alma Mater as opvoedkundige instelling is: Anton Müller se boek Ek Onthou – ‘n Outistiese seun se Lewensreis. Dis ‘n monumentale werk vir iemand wat op ouderdom drie as onopvoedbaar verklaar is, maar tog sy plek in die samelewing kon volstaan danksy ‘n moeder se onwrikbare geloof in hom en ‘n skool wat haar deur dik en dun ondersteun het.
In the obituaries you can also read about the inspiring lives of Prof Vincent Brümmer, one of the greatest theological philosophers of our time, Prof Christopher Heywood, who opened up the treasure chest of African literature to English students, and Dirk Oosthuizen, a former Deputy Mayor of the Winelands District Municipality who served the communities where he lived in an extraordinary way.
En in die agtergrond is daar onderwysers, soos wyle Werner van Rensburg, wat help om te vorm en te skaaf aan sulke produkte.
Congratulations to the 2020 Matrics on their excellent results. Get more information and the pictures of all those who achieved an aggregate A. As we all know sport and culture are as important as the academy and there is great news about a joint venture between PRG and the Stellenbosch University to develop state of the art indoor cricket facilities.
Ons is trots op Nic de Jager, wat deur KykNet Fiestas vir sy lewenswerk vereer is, en Jean Meiring wat aangewys is as voorsitter van die Taalmonumentraad vir die volgende drie jaar.
Covid 19 precautions are still hampering our activities, but at least there is the annual PRG Classic Golf Day at the end of May to look out for.
Daar is nog vele meer om die lyf van hierdie uitgawe. Lekker lees en terugvoering sal waardeer word.
