    Creating a historical sport narrative of Zonnebloem College for classroom practice, pp . 71-104 Creating a historical sport narrative of Zonnebloem College for classroom practice DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2223-0386/2020/n23a4 Francois Cleophas University of Stellenbosch Stellenbosch, South Africa [email protected] ORCID No.: orcid.org/0000-0002-1492-3792 Abstract This article attempts to create a sport narrative of the Zonnebloem College prior to 1950. The introduction provides a motivation for proceeding with a decolonising format and lays out what the elements of such a format would entail. Next, an overview of sport historical developments at the Zonnebloem College is explored. The administrative history of sport at Zonnebloem is explored as well as selected sport codes. Finally, the article is summarised and concluded by presenting teachers and learners with sample questions, which they could consider using in their local conditions. Keywords: Athletics; Netball; Soccer; Decolonisation; Institutional Culture; Past Student's Union; Zonnebloem. Introduction According to the sport historian, André Odendaal, at the centre of South African sport history must be the effort to understand how the silences of the colonial subject in sport are manipulated and how colonial narratives are set in the literature and minds of South Africans – and to attempt to redress the situation (Odendaal 2018:1). One example of the silence on black school sport is the publication, Some famous schools. It is a 279- page work that is dedicated to “teachers, pupils, old boys, parents and the local public that [came from] schools founded on the Arnoldian ideal” (Peacock 1972: Editor’s Note).

    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). Congratulations to Mrs Mariëtte Viljoen whose daughter, Obie, had a baby girl earlier this week.

The supply of snacks was never-ending. So appreciated. Somebody sent in a basket full of marmite scones. Everybody wants the recipe! If the parent who sent them in would like to share, we would love the recipe. Please send it to: [email protected] There are plenty of knitted squares that need crocheting or sewing into blankets before winter. Please come and collect some if you are able. Thank you. TENNIS COACHING JOB We are looking for someone who can coach the 4th and 5th team Tennis girls on Tuesdays after 15:15 from next week. OW and parents welcome to apply. Starting date: 27 February Please contact Ms McLaren [email protected] or Ms A Gray [email protected] SCIENCE AND FAITH On Thursday 8 February at second break, CU (Christian Union) had the privilege of hosting Dr Derek Fish, a talented physicist, passionate about science as well as his faith. Dr Fish addressed a large group of Westerfordians about how, contrary to popular belief, science and religion do not have to clash, but instead overlap and can go hand in hand. He shared many quotes with us from famous scientists in the past about faith and science coinciding, as well as comparing scientific fact to what the Bible states. Dr Fish also made time towards the end to answer some of the pressing questions the Westerfordians at the event had, many of which would have been difficult for the average person to answer! A huge thank you to Dr Fish for taking time to share his incredible insight and wisdom on this subject with Westerford.
