Back to Main PageAfter matriculating, I went to Wits where I did a BA(ed). I taught at Clapham for 5 years before marrying Cliff.
I then left and worked in translating and copy-editing for several years - re-entering teaching when my boys went to school.
We have two sons, Craig, now 19 and Christopher, now 16. We moved to Jhb 15 years ago, but I still consider myself a Pretoria girl! Cliff works with Standard Bank and I have been teaching Afrikaans at Hyde Park High for several years now. Craig is at Wits, studying a BA with the emphasis on law and Chris is in Gr 11 at Hyde Park. Cliff is an avid yachtsman and so we spend a lot of time on the Vaal, sailing. Apart from teaching, I am kept busy fundraising for and organising the matric dance at HP - and reading is still one of my favourite past-times. We have quite a menagerie - 2 German Shepherds, a boxer, a maltese and two lorikeets, which is also quite time consuming!
I still see a lot of Sue Carte, and am still in touch with Margie Scott and Chantal Prince. Facebook has recently got me back in touch with Serena Rotunno and Cheryl Chum.
