Local teacher crowned 3rd best Life Skills teacher in KZN
Local teacher at Harpo Primary School, Ayanda Kubheka, had the privilege of attending a South African Council for Educators (SACE) Teacher-Based Research Colloquium. SACE's aim is to regulate and professionalise the profession of teaching.
Kubheka was invited to encourage as well as motivate educators as he was crowned third best Life Orientation teacher in KZN.
Kubheka shared 'good practices' during the Colloquium, where the attendees included student teachers from Wits and the University of Johannesburg. The feedback was positive and the contributions from the audience were humbling.
A number of speakers took the stage, including SACE CEO Ma Ella Mokgalane, Mr Simelane (who is a curriculum specialist from uMgungundlovu District) and others. The presentations focused on the SACE code of professional ethics and standards, the importance of twinning for schools, and the life of students and teachers.
Immediately upon return from the Colloquium, Kubheka was once again invited by Zululand District director Mr Ndlovu to attend the District Merit Awards ceremony, where he received a certificate and trophy for being the third most excellent Life Skills educator in the province.
Kubheka continues to encourage and inspire educators, especially Life Orientation teachers, to continue believing in the power of knowledge and the subject itself. Kubheka concluded by quoting Martin Luther King Jr: 'A man who has not discovered something to die for, he is not fit to live'.
