A Language in Decline? a Contrastive Study of the Use A language in decline? A contrastive study of the use of, and motivation and de-motivation for, learning Afrikaans among two groups of learners at an English medium high school in Cape Town, South Africa MANISHA GOVENDER Student No: 2538369 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (full thesis) in the Department of Linguistics, University of the Western Cape. Supervisor: Prof. Charlyn Dyers May 2010 1 Abstract The Dutch occupied the Cape during 1652-1795 and 1803-1806 and their language soon became the dominant language in the Cape in South Africa. It is believed that Afrikaans developed as a creolised form of the Dutch language to serve as a lingua franca between the multilingual inhabitants of the Cape at that time – the original inhabitants, the Khoi and San, the slaves brought by the Dutch from various parts of Asia and Africa, and the Dutch colonists. The slave community along with the indigenous South African groups gradually replaced their native languages with Afrikaans (Mesthrie, 2002). Afrikaans in practice replaced Dutch and became one of South Africa's official languages (along with English) from 1925. It reached the apex of its development and influence during the years of Nationalist party rule and the apartheid regime as a language of officialdom, of the judiciary and education. However, in 1994 nine African languages were afforded official status along with English and Afrikaans in South Africa. Presently, Afrikaans is still taught in the majority of schools in the Western Cape as either a first or second language. This thesis compares and contrasts the language attitudes and motivation towards Afrikaans in two groups of secondary school learners - grade eight and grade eleven learners - at the same school, viz. the Settlers’ High School in Parow, a northern suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. At this English medium school, Afrikaans as a second language is a compulsory subject. The thesis also examines the dominant ideologies held towards Afrikaans by the learners and by the school in question which contributes towards shaping their attitudes and motivations for learning the language as well as their actual use of the language. The study finds a correlation between the learners’ attitudes towards Afrikaans and their actual patterns of use of the language, which indicates that the use of Afrikaans may be in decline among especially the younger, grade eight, learners. 2 A language in decline?

    30 March2017 Dear Parent/Guardian NEWSLETTER 9/17 We have reached the end of a highly successful term. So much has been achieved and we have big dreams and plans for the remainder of the year. Allow me this opportunity to thank every dedicated educator, coach and learner for their hard work and commitment. It is wonderful to see the scale of participation and the level at which we are competing now. Sport and culture have gone from strength to strength. Add to that the excellent academic results we attained last year, and you have to agree that our school is blessed with exceptional learners, educators and parents. During a recent visit by the Curro Transformation and Diversity team, we were complimented on the friendliness of our learners and staff. They noticed how learners went out of their way to greet them and to assist where they could. We also often get compliments from visitors, who work with our learners, regarding their ability to think out of the box and come up with new ideas and solutions. Schools close on Friday, 31 March at 11:00. Reports will be issued to learners on this day. Term 2 starts on Wednesday, 19 April. Educators already start on Tuesday, 18 April. Enjoy a well-deserved break with your children. May God keep you safe and may you experience a blessed Easter. STAFF MATTERS We wish to congratulate Mr Christiaan Botha who attended the North-West University of Potchefstroom’s graduation ceremony to receive his Bachelor’s Degree in Education (BEd).

  • Term 1 Newsletter • 2020
    The Settlers High School Term 1 Newsletter 2020 MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL Dear Settlers Family The term has come to a sudden halt in the midst of fear and the unknown. Despite our heightened concern, we need to stay positive and give hope, be responsible citizens and temper this with the facts to alleviate fear and panic. The Settlers is a very special school and a typical example of this was the weekend of 13 – 14 March. In just one weekend we celebrated and revelled in the many school activities all happening simultaneously. We received recognition from UWC as their number one feeder school, the RCL and Class Reps were away at camp honing their leadership skills, the grade 9 drama performance group were acting at the Baxter Theatre, hockey participated in three different hockey tournaments, where the teams and individual learners were applauded for their skills with no less than two man of the match awards, TSHS hosted the Top Schools Basketball Tournament of 40+ matches with our 1st team girls walking away with a gold medal, Riefqah Diedericks (Gr 12) participated in the Nedbank Essay competition and won a R60 000 bursary for her 2021 university studies and the 1st team cricket challenged The Settlers old boys team and beat them convincingly. That is Settlers in a nutshell, and then comes Monday 16 March, and we had to deal with the effect of Covid-19 and the huge impact it will have on schooling in SA. We have put in place an Academic Maintenance Plan for the extended holiday.
