<\/i><\/i><\/span>GESKIEDENIS<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHugenote Laerskool is deel van Wellington se ryke opvoedkundige erfenis.\u202f Die ontstaan van die skool is die resultaat van die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools waar plaaslike leerders aanvanklik onderrig ontvang het.\u202f Vandag bou ons steeds voort op die sterk waardes en beginsels van ons grondleggers.<\/p>\n
Die Hugenote Laerskool in 1954, na die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools, as \u2018n parallelmediumskool tot stand gekom. Die skool is aanvanklik in die ou skoolgebou in Markstraat gehuisves. \u202fIn 1973 het die skool die nuwe skoolgebou in Generaal Hertzoglaan betrek en onafhanklik van Hugenote Ho\u00ebrskool begin funksioneer. Die bekende skrywer, mnr. P.H. Nortje, was die nuutgestigte Hugenote Laerskool se eerste skoolhoof.<\/span><\/p>\nDie skool het oorspronklik (1954 \u2013 1972) slegs leerders van graad 4 tot 7 geakkommodeer, maar na die verhuising na die nuwe skoolgebou ook graad 1- tot 3-leerders begin onderrig.<\/p>\n
In 2013 kry die skool die toevoeging van \u2018n graad R-afdeling, Goggagrot, en in 2016 skuif ons pre-prim\u00eare afdeling na die voormalige Dwergiebos-perseel, wat sedertdien as Hugenote Laerskool se Doemsie Kampus bekendstaan en leerders van graad RR tot graad R akkommodeer.<\/p>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/span>WHAT IS THE HUGUENOT WAY?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nI am a true Blackie.<\/p>\n

- Greeting others and showing kindness are parts of who I am.<\/li>\n

Huguenot equips me for life and I live by our motto, \u201cAim High!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>MOTTO<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n“Aim high”. It’s more than just our motto. It represents the spirit in which we act inside and outside the classroom, school and home. Based on our motto, it is our mission to offer every learner the opportunity to realise his\/her full potential.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>VALUE-DRIVEN SCHOOL<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHuguenot Primary School prides itself on being a value-driven school. Values influence our behaviour and guide our actions and decisions daily. We strive to cultivate a sense of purpose and meaning in all our learners to help them develop into well-rounded, responsible and compassionate individuals.<\/p>\n
It is important for us to equip all our learners with the necessary skills to apply these values in their daily lives, as well as in society, thereby making a positive difference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>HISTORY<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHuguenot Primary School is part of Wellington’s rich educational heritage.\u202f The school’s inception is the result of the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools where local learners initially received instruction.\u202f Today, we continue to build on the strong values and principles of our founding fathers.<\/p>\n
After the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools in 1954, Huguenot Primary School was established as a parallel-medium school. The school was initially housed in the old school building in Market Street. \u202fIn 1973 the school moved into the new school building in General Hertzog Boulevard and began to function independently of Huguenot High School. The well-known author, Mr P.H. Nortje, was the newly appointed Huguenot Primary School’s first principal.<\/span><\/p>\nThe school originally (1954 \u2013 1972) only accommodated learners from Grade 4 to 7, but after the move to the new school building, also started teaching Grade 1 to 3 learners.<\/p>\n
In 2013, the school added a Grade R section, Goggagrot,<\/em> and in 2016 the pre-primary division was moved to the former Dwergiebos<\/em> site, which has since been known as Huguenot Primary School’s Doemsie Campus<\/em>. It accommodates learners from Grade RR to Grade R.<\/p>\nMr P.H. Nortje was succeeded by the following principals:<\/span><\/p>\n1962 \u2013 1966 Mr N.J.P.J.S. van Staden<\/p>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/span>MOTTO<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n“Aim high”. It’s more than just our motto. It represents the spirit in which we act inside and outside the classroom, school and home. Based on our motto, it is our mission to offer every learner the opportunity to realise his\/her full potential.<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/i><\/span>VALUE-DRIVEN SCHOOL<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHuguenot Primary School prides itself on being a value-driven school. Values influence our behaviour and guide our actions and decisions daily. We strive to cultivate a sense of purpose and meaning in all our learners to help them develop into well-rounded, responsible and compassionate individuals.<\/p>\n
It is important for us to equip all our learners with the necessary skills to apply these values in their daily lives, as well as in society, thereby making a positive difference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>HISTORY<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHuguenot Primary School is part of Wellington’s rich educational heritage.\u202f The school’s inception is the result of the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools where local learners initially received instruction.\u202f Today, we continue to build on the strong values and principles of our founding fathers.<\/p>\n
After the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools in 1954, Huguenot Primary School was established as a parallel-medium school. The school was initially housed in the old school building in Market Street. \u202fIn 1973 the school moved into the new school building in General Hertzog Boulevard and began to function independently of Huguenot High School. The well-known author, Mr P.H. Nortje, was the newly appointed Huguenot Primary School’s first principal.<\/span><\/p>\nThe school originally (1954 \u2013 1972) only accommodated learners from Grade 4 to 7, but after the move to the new school building, also started teaching Grade 1 to 3 learners.<\/p>\n
In 2013, the school added a Grade R section, Goggagrot,<\/em> and in 2016 the pre-primary division was moved to the former Dwergiebos<\/em> site, which has since been known as Huguenot Primary School’s Doemsie Campus<\/em>. It accommodates learners from Grade RR to Grade R.<\/p>\nMr P.H. Nortje was succeeded by the following principals:<\/span><\/p>\n1962 \u2013 1966 Mr N.J.P.J.S. van Staden<\/p>\n

After the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools in 1954, Huguenot Primary School was established as a parallel-medium school. The school was initially housed in the old school building in Market Street. \u202fIn 1973 the school moved into the new school building in General Hertzog Boulevard and began to function independently of Huguenot High School. The well-known author, Mr P.H. Nortje, was the newly appointed Huguenot Primary School’s first principal.<\/span><\/p>\nThe school originally (1954 \u2013 1972) only accommodated learners from Grade 4 to 7, but after the move to the new school building, also started teaching Grade 1 to 3 learners.<\/p>\n
In 2013, the school added a Grade R section, Goggagrot,<\/em> and in 2016 the pre-primary division was moved to the former Dwergiebos<\/em> site, which has since been known as Huguenot Primary School’s Doemsie Campus<\/em>. It accommodates learners from Grade RR to Grade R.<\/p>\nMr P.H. Nortje was succeeded by the following principals:<\/span><\/p>\n1962 \u2013 1966 Mr N.J.P.J.S. van Staden<\/p>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/span>GESKIEDENIS<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHugenote Laerskool is deel van Wellington se ryke opvoedkundige erfenis.\u202f Die ontstaan van die skool is die resultaat van die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools waar plaaslike leerders aanvanklik onderrig ontvang het.\u202f Vandag bou ons steeds voort op die sterk waardes en beginsels van ons grondleggers.<\/p>\n
Die Hugenote Laerskool in 1954, na die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools, as \u2018n parallelmediumskool tot stand gekom. Die skool is aanvanklik in die ou skoolgebou in Markstraat gehuisves. \u202fIn 1973 het die skool die nuwe skoolgebou in Generaal Hertzoglaan betrek en onafhanklik van Hugenote Ho\u00ebrskool begin funksioneer. Die bekende skrywer, mnr. P.H. Nortje, was die nuutgestigte Hugenote Laerskool se eerste skoolhoof.<\/span><\/p>\nDie skool het oorspronklik (1954 \u2013 1972) slegs leerders van graad 4 tot 7 geakkommodeer, maar na die verhuising na die nuwe skoolgebou ook graad 1- tot 3-leerders begin onderrig.<\/p>\n
In 2013 kry die skool die toevoeging van \u2018n graad R-afdeling, Goggagrot, en in 2016 skuif ons pre-prim\u00eare afdeling na die voormalige Dwergiebos-perseel, wat sedertdien as Hugenote Laerskool se Doemsie Kampus bekendstaan en leerders van graad RR tot graad R akkommodeer.<\/p>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/span>MOTTO<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n“Aim high”. It’s more than just our motto. It represents the spirit in which we act inside and outside the classroom, school and home.

<\/i><\/i><\/span>HISTORY<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\n\n\nHuguenot Primary School is part of Wellington’s rich educational heritage.\u202f The school’s inception is the result of the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools where local learners initially received instruction.\u202f Today, we continue to build on the strong values and principles of our founding fathers.<\/p>\n
After the merger of the original girls’ and boys’ high schools in 1954, Huguenot Primary School was established as a parallel-medium school. The school was initially housed in the old school building in Market Street. \u202fIn 1973 the school moved into the new school building in General Hertzog Boulevard and began to function independently of Huguenot High School.

In 2013, the school added a Grade R section, Goggagrot,<\/em> and in 2016 the pre-primary division was moved to the former Dwergiebos<\/em> site, which has since been known as Huguenot Primary School’s Doemsie Campus<\/em>.

Ek is \u2018n Hugenoter.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Ek dra my uniform met trots.<\/li>\n
- Dit is lekker om iemand mooi te groet.<\/li>\n
- By ons skool help ons mekaar omdat ons mekaar liefhet en vir mekaar omgee.<\/li>\n
- Ons lyk almal anders en dink verskillend oor sekere goed, maar dit keer ons nie om goeie klasmaats te wees nie.<\/li>\n
- Hugenote se leerders is gehoorsaam en respekteer onderwysers en maats binne en buite die klaskamer.<\/li>\n
- \u2018n Hugenoter is eerlik en betroubaar. Jy sal net die waarheid en opbouende woorde uit ons monde hoor kom.<\/li>\n
- My skool is \u2018n wonderlike plek omdat dit vir almal regverdige geleenthede bied om aan sport, akademie en kultuur deel te neem.<\/li>\n
- Dit is belangrik om altyd jou beste te gee in jou skoolwerk. \u2018n Hugenoter weet dat sy beste al is wat nodig is.<\/li>\n
- By Hugenote is ons almal deel van een span waar almal sy kant bring.<\/li>\n
- Ek woon al my sportoefeninge getrou by omdat my liggaam en gees gesond bly en my maats op my staatmaak.<\/li>\n
- Ek is trots op my klaskamers en terrein; daarom doen ek my bes om dit netjies te hou.<\/li>\n
- Ons is \u2018n skool wat lief is vir ons gemeenskap en omgewing en sien dit as ons verantwoordelikheid om te sorg dat dit \u2018n spesiale plek bly.<\/li>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/span>LEUSE<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n\u201cMik hoog\u201d. Dit is meer as net ons leuse. Dit verteenwoordig die gees waarin ons optree binne en buite die klaskamer, skool en huis.

\n\n\nHugenote Laerskool is trots daarop om ‘n waardegedrewe skool te wees. Waardes be\u00efnvloed ons gedrag en rig daagliks ons optrede en besluite. Ons streef daarna om ‘n gevoel van doelgerigtheid en betekenis by al ons leerders te kweek om hulle sodoende te help om in afgeronde, verantwoordelike en deernisvolle individue te ontwikkel.<\/p>\n
Dit is vir ons belangrik om al ons leerders toe te rus met die nodige vaardighede om hierdie waardes in hul daaglikse lewe, sowel as in die samelewing toe te pas en sodoende ‘n positiewe verskil te maak.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\n\nHugenote Laerskool is deel van Wellington se ryke opvoedkundige erfenis.\u202f Die ontstaan van die skool is die resultaat van die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools waar plaaslike leerders aanvanklik onderrig ontvang het.\u202f Vandag bou ons steeds voort op die sterk waardes en beginsels van ons grondleggers.<\/p>\n
Die Hugenote Laerskool in 1954, na die samesmelting van die oorspronklike Girls\u2019 High en Boys\u2019 High Schools, as \u2018n parallelmediumskool tot stand gekom. Die skool is aanvanklik in die ou skoolgebou in Markstraat gehuisves. \u202fIn 1973 het die skool die nuwe skoolgebou in Generaal Hertzoglaan betrek en onafhanklik van Hugenote Ho\u00ebrskool begin funksioneer. Die bekende skrywer, mnr. P.H. Nortje, was die nuutgestigte Hugenote Laerskool se eerste skoolhoof.<\/span><\/p>\n
