KNOWLEDGE EXCELLENCE

INSERT SECTION HEADER TITLE HEREPrincipal’s note

“The aim of education is the knowledge, not of fact, but of values.” – Dean William Inge.

It is with joy and deep gratitude that I pen a few lines for the maiden magazine of PLG Allens View Academy.

Our fledgling school is the result of the vision of the founder of Pembury Lifestyle Group,Andrew McLachlan, who has consistently believed that it is our responsibility to improve thelives of others, to recognise the needs of those around us and to make a difference in ourcommunities. PLG Allens View Academy is one of the younger siblings in the family of PLGSchools, which was established in 2015 and already listed on the JSE AltX on 31 March 2017.It is with great excitement that we await the opening of the next five schools in 2018.

It is the strong Christian Ethos and the tenets that I value most – integrity, honesty, respectand love – that I share with PLG which brought me to Allens View in July 2016. Over the nextfew months, we awaited learner applications – sometimes with a little trepidation, but mostlywith elation as our numbers increased and the opening of the school in January 2017 becamea certainty. I would like to thank management for their continued support, understandingand the opportunities granted to us in establishing our school in this tranquil jewel of nature.

Our many prayers were answered as committed and involved parents put their trust in a newschool and continued to support us and help us build relationships that are rooted in trust,respect and a shared vision. I would like to thank our parents who faced – and are still facing– the growing pains of a brand new school with such utter faith, a precious sense of humourand incredible support. Education is, after all, a shared commitment between dedicatedteachers, motivated learners and enthusiastic and involved parents with high expectations –and we are blessed to have this particular combination.

We endeavour to fuse academic excellence with the strong value system which is ingrained inthe culture of PLG Schools. To achieve this, we strive to become the hub to initiate formaleducation enshrined in a deeply rooted value system, which is extended to our homes, wherethe values and enthusiasm for learning are further strengthened. In this pursuit of excellence,I would like to express my gratitude to our parent fraternity for their support in every aspect.

KNOWLEDGE EXCELLENCE

INSERT SECTION HEADER TITLE HEREPrincipal’s note

I laud the relentless efforts and irrepressible passion of our teaching staff to establish inour learners a love for learning, an infallible value system and offer individual attentionand support to all learners to recognise and pursue their purpose in life, to strive hardto accomplish their goals and to transcend mediocrity.

I owe appreciation also to our support staff for their loyalty, optimism andunderstanding of our children, our sport coach, who breezed in during the last part ofour first term of existence to help us realise our holistic approach to education to forgestrong minds along with strong bodies. A special word of thanks to our administratorand marketing co-ordinator, Tammy du Rand, who joined us in term 3 and immediatelylaunched herself into school life with such enthusiasm and a myriad of talents she ishappy to share. We owe the development of our choir to her – and I am eternallygrateful for her competent, meticulous and ever-positive handling of administrativeaffairs, parent requests and my brimming diary. Thank you too to Casey Salhab whonever tires of keeping our Facebook page buzzing, acts as our in-house photographer,concert producer and co-conductor of the choir .

I am confident that PLG Allens View will continue to be blessed with the opportunity toembrace many more learners who will grow and evolve with us consistently to walkonto the great stage of life and contribute a verse which will display the fruits of thespirit.

ANNETTE MEYER

GRADE 1 TEACHER

Annette started her teaching career in 1976, teaching Afrikaans and PE to

high school learners in the Western Cape. This came to an end when the

family moved to Gauteng. Here she supplemented her Educational Degree

and Diploma with a National Higher Certificate in Residential Child Care,

raking in Top Student of the Year Award at the Faculty for Education and

Behavioural Science.

She then opened an Aftercare facility, assisting Grade 1 to 7 learners with

homework and studying. She returned to the formal educational arena, where

she taught classes from Grade 4 – 12 over a period of 17 years at the same

school. She was also HOD for the Foundation Phase for the last five years

there.

HILARY LABUSCHAGNE

GRADE 2 & 3 TEACHER

Hilary studied Primary School Education in Pretoria and then added a number

of qualifications in language studies in Kwa Zulu Natal. She started her

teaching career in Springs and taught at various Primary Schools in Gauteng

and later in Kwa Zulu Natal, where se became HOD for Languages in 1989.

Her love for language and her excellent qualifications led her to teach English

Principal in 2007.

Hilary’s teaching philosophy in her own words is, “Discipline and respect are

of the utmost importance in shaping young minds. Every culture is different

and important and should be celebrated and upheld in every classroom in

South Africa. These days, children are exposed to many damaging influences

on social media and it is the teachers’ duty to help them to make the right

choices in life.

Cindy Gambiza

Cindy obtained her BEd from UNISA. From an early age, she has always had

a passion for children and teaching has been the perfect place to fulfil this

passion and calling. She finds fulfilment in sharing knowledge with learners

as they discover the world around them, but mostly as they discover their

own abilities and work to their optimum potential.

Cindy takes her profession as a shaper of dreams seriously and strives to

help learners grow by experiencing different dimensions of education by

taking part in cultural activities and applying practical skills in lessons.

She also is passionate about integrity, good manners and kindness, which

everyone needs to be good citizens, as well as confidence without

arrogance.

INSERT SECTION HEADER TITLE HEREOpening Ceremony

We were honoured to have the founder and CEO of PLG Schools present to cut theceremonial ribbon on the 10th of January this year. He was presented with the ceremonialscissors by our very first registered student, Samih Kader, and the vision he shared with us asthe sun started setting will always be vivid in our minds.

A Candle Ceremony tradition was another first for Allens View and our hope is to seehundreds of shining lights paving the way for the next generation of students year after yearduring our opening ceremony far into the future.

The symbolism behind sharing the candles is simple – know that you lose nothing by sharingyour light with others. In fact, as each child received the flame from another and passed hisflame on to the next one, the stage grew brighter and the message was burnt into many amind.

PLG Allens View Academy learner - shine your light, live deliberately, grasp every opportunitygiven to you, be the best you that you can be, treat others in such a way that you never haveto say you’re sorry. Live in such a way that you can say – at the end of every school day,school year, and one day, ages and ages hence, at the end of your lives: “I regret nothing”.

these young enthusiasts learned so much about their favourite sport.

Soccercise Starz also came through in Term 4 to reward our future soccer stars for all

the hard work they had put in throughout the year. Our budding soccer players

learned everything from dribbling to ball control, and everything else in between. The

Beyond Potential Kids showed our little athletes at PLG Allens View Academy just how

much fun exercise can be. From working on their gross motor skills, to spending hours

playing the most amazing games, our little ones could not get enough of Buzzi Bodies’

sessions.

The two coaches are positively bursting with a joy for life and energy that is absolutely

contagious. Thank you for so often making our days brighter with your zest for life and

love for our children.

Mrs Meyer’s Grade 1 class had parents clapping and singing along when truly boredfairy-tale girls who grew tired of waiting for princes and white horses and fairygodmothers were rescued from the pages of old books as Superman, Batman, Ironman and Spiderman jumped to their rescue and shared a dance or two with them.

We have to admit, though, that the true gentleman stole every heart and all the littlecharacters reminded us that anyone can be a superhero, a lady and a gentleman –and that we don’t have to be what the world wants us to be – we can choose who wewant to be.

Like Alice said: “I want to be myself!”

We were introduced to a not-so-bad Wolf, who is tired of his house being over-run bythe Three Little Pigs and chases them off to find a place of their own, and Baby Bear,who loves to play with Goldilocks (his very best friend).

Granny lost the plot completely and thought she heard the tinkling sounds at MonteCasino.Lots of laughs were had by all.

Mrs Gambiza’s Grade 4s and 5s took to the stage and told a heart-warming storyabout finding love and family in the most unexpected places, reminding us not tojudge a book by its cover.

Witches turned into loving new stepmothers and wicked witches and jealousstepmothers certainly came off second best this time.

“Simple, genuine goodness is the best capital to found the business of this life upon. Itlasts when fame and money fail, and is the only riches we can take out of this worldwith us.”― Louisa May Alcott, Little Men.

The seniors of Allens View Academy truly led by example and finished off the concertwith a memorable performance.

Many of ourlearners are siblings – so this number means that so many of our parents donatedmore than one or two boxes. We don’t have enough words to thank our very specialparents for their generosity and kindness and for the values they instil in theirchildren. We have been blessed abundantly!
