Dear Paul and Butzi

 

The first camp of the year 2015 was awesome. It was great seeing everyone again.

 

The AAC was held outside at Eco Lodge. It was a bit chilly though. We had all sorts of fun activities and we also got to know the new einsteins. We did the nature walk where find yourself a spot in nature to think. It was an amazing experience.

 

You and Buzi were dearly missed at the AAC. I hope you have a great week.

 

Sincerely

Loren Hans

Good day

I apologize for not sending an email earlier. Before the exams started I felt very low. Its amazing what a single negative person can do to your self-esteem. I went to visit a another church in my area with my mother and grandmother. I felt renewed when I stepped out of the church. My trust and faith in God has grown. I closed the doors of negativity nd I'm wide open for positivity. God has his time with everything and I've come to that point where I don't question Him anymore.

Florance Vermeulen, President of the Cape Einsteins, said at our last workshop that I stood out for him the most. The person I was when I started the program is not the same person I am today. When I started the program I was very quiet. I was selfish with the knowledge I had and I would constantly think what others might say or think about me. Today I'm more myself...I'm more brave to take on any challenge that might come my way. I thought the world was fulled with negative people but the foundation proved me wrong.

Our exams ended last week. I feel very relieved like a mountain that's been lifted off my shoulders. There were moments when I felt like giving up. My motivation was "I'm born to stand out and not to fit in". I don't want to fit in with my sociaty but rather stand out with my success. I'm very nervous to see my results. I gave my 200% because there were moments when I was so tired that I would fell asleep on my books. But I survived and it made me a stronger person today.

I hope you are doing well and I will be sending another email soon to share my results with you.

Love
Simone

Betreff: Jacqueline Snyman - Cape Einstein

Hello I'm Jacqueline Snyman and I would like to thank you for sponsoring me this year as a Cape Einstein.

Since I have been part of the Cape Einsteins foundation my life has been growing and has really great progress especially in my school work. I was in 2nd place in the top 20 achievers for the first 3 terms and for this year I have achieved 1st place of all the Grade 10's. I also got 5 diplomas (1st place in mathematics, business studies, accounting and economics and 2nd place in afrikaans).

My situation at home has been worsening since both my parents is currently only working part time jobs and sometimes we have to rely on family to help us but since I'm getting sponsored I never have to worry about whether I'm going to have money for my basic needs and for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart.I had also learned alot on the camps and it had taught me to not let my circumstances stand in the way of my success and I used my circumstances as motivation to reach success.

This last weekend's workshop had also taught me alot and I enjoy working with technology so it was very exciting for me. I also learned alot about plastic and altough I don't like science that session was very interesting.

I look forward for you to sponsor me for the next years and I promise to keep up with my good work.
Kind regards
Jacqueline Snyman Grade 10  Lückhoff High School

Betreff: This year "2014"

 

Dear Paul/Butzi Spiering and Mr. Frank Marrenbach

Thanking you for a wonderful year.

We had a workshop the 1st and 8th Nov. at Stellenbosch University. This was officially the last activities we had for this year with the Cape Einsteins. It was great days and I enjoyed myself and learned a lot.

We were said to send a e-mail and attach a "selfie" of ourselves but I've decided to attach more pictures of this years memories.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you and tell you how I appreciate everything you have done and put into us. This is my second year in this programme and the memories I've made would be a book worth.

I'm looking forward to the sponsorship for next year and that eventually will be my last year too.

Yours sincerely. Carlien

Good day.
School started last week. I were very happy to see my classmates again.
The life skills workshop was last weekend. I enjoyed it a lot. After each camp I grow as a individual. I learned that we should let all the negativity go and make room for positive in our life and hearts.

I hope you are doing well.

Dear Paul and Butzi

 

We had a CAT-class where we learned about the technical stuff about our tablets. I learned things that i didn't even know. We also received stationary and a memory stick with approximately twenty applications which includes maths apps, science apps and games. There are also some other educating apps as well

 

My tablet is still in very good condition and it is helping with my studies, especially with exams coming up soon. 

I have rejoined my dance-class again. It's amazing and I have missed it. I have been chosen as one of the prefects for next year. We are called prefect-interns. We are basically prefects in training.

I hope you are doing great. 

P.S. I have attached a picture of myself which a friend took secretly.

 I hope you are doing well and that our heavenly Father kept you save in his guidance.
The June holidays was very relaxing because I spend it with my family and friends.
My goals for this term is to stay focused and achieve the best of my abilities. I can not thank the foundation in words but rather with my actions in the future by becoming successful.

Last weekend was a memory that will always be remembered. I learned new things and feel motivated. It was the grade twelve's last camp this past weekend. I don't know how to say goodbye because there won't be a goodbye but rather a "I will see you soon". They are like family to me and the foundation has become our home. The Einsteins and mentors know how to put a smile on my face. I miss them...

With love
Simone

We hope that you are well. I have included the results of the two grade 11 learners in the PPR. The grade twelve learners’ results will only be released on the 4 January 2014.They have applied for admission for tertiary education at various tertiary institutions. Thanks so much for the 4 grade 9 learners that have been identified at our school to belong to Cape EINSTEINS in 2014. We do appreciate and value your sponsorship and we can truly say that our learners have benefitted greatly from the Spierings Foundation.
We wish you peace, joy and many blessings over the festive season.

Hey guys. I'm sorry I couldn't be at camp, I've heard it was an emostional Farewell to a few of our family. To the matriculants, plz study hard, julle gaan die vrugte pluk agter na glo my! I'm hoping to see you guys again in the future.
The reason why I couldn't be there; I was elected to be Representitive at my College (SRC) so I had to make posters, prepare myself for interviews, ect. Today, this moment, I can Proudly say I won, I'm the new SRC 2013/2014 of my College. Its Funny, eventhought there's so much responsiblity now, with all the years me having experiences of being Head boy primary & high school. I feel like I Got this!! With the teambuilding & leadership skills & activities I've learned @camps I have so much confidence now. I Just want to say Thank you Cape Einsteins, for growing me, thank you...

This weekend was thee extreme and I kept myself emotionally strong but now I feel the pain. It's hard saying goodbye to a group of people whom I known for quite a few years but remember....you are strong enough now to discover your destiny. To the rest, let them be the people who you look up to and follow their footsteps because we are ALL Borne to Stand Out and Not to Fit In. The best of luck to everyone and take good care of yourself.

Did you know...?One of our founders, late Bishop Dr. Ulster, had his residence here in Genadendal and his daughter, Jenny Ulster-Bridgeman (our director of CAPE EINSTEINS HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAM) was born and is living here part time.
WIKIPEDIA: Genadendal (1738), the oldest mission station on the continent of Africa, was one of the most progressive communities at the Cape during the 19th century. The Moravian Missionaries and members of the congregation, apart from fulfilling their religious duties, carried out pioneering work in the fields of education, music, printing, vernacular architecture, furniture making and other local industries.

All buildings on Genadendal Church Square were declared as National Monuments in 1980 and it is regarded as the most authentic Church Square in the country.

The Mission Museum collection is housed in a building which was erected in 1838 as the first Teachers’ Training College in South Africa. Most of the collection on display has been produced and used at this mission station.

Subject: Tutoring sessions Dear Paul and Butzi

I really enjoyed today's tutoring sessions. We did not have CAT today, due to Mr Fransman having to attend a funeral, but that was fine, because we were able to look into some Gr.9 Maths before attending our own Gr.12 session. It was actually quite surprising to see that there were some functions done in gr.9 that I did not remember today (now I am fully reloaded) - this can help me during exams, because they might just ask something from previous years and assume that I remember it. Now I know to also go back on stuff that I did in previous years, just to be safe during exams.

I hope that the foundation continues with the tutoring sessions for the rest of the year, but also in the future. I am really benefiting from the sessions. It is definitely adding to my determination to pass especially Maths. I am really starting to look at Maths from a quite different, positive perspective.

Overall, I feel great after the past three sessions that we had.

Greetings.Melissa Moses

Halo Fellow Cape Einsteins, I hope you are all...Halo Fellow Cape Einsteins, I hope you are all good and safe. Im looking forward to see my family members this coming Saterday at the ACC. The Einsteins mean FAMILY to me and therefore I have pured my heart out just to be with you guys on every opportunity we get, to be together. I've cancelled my MATRIC CAMP that only comes once this year, but I believe "family" comes first and thats where my priorities lie, with the Spierings! Im willing to sacrifice anything just so that I could spent time with you's. I hope I have opened your hearts so that you realise where "your" priorities lie. #enough said now# Im extremely excited to meet our new members aswell as to see the old "Wendy's" again. Love & Miss you big time. HEAD UP HIGH SHOULDERS BROAD, WALK TALL!! Remember: "I WAS BORN TO STAND OUT, NOT TO FIT IN!!" via MALEMA. . . Mwah!!

 Dear Hester 

Thank you for compiling the report. Some wonderful and promising results. I can see that we have a very suitable team identified for the funding from Spierings. 

Paul and Butzi and all the guardians can be proud of their investments.  Both matriculants are furthering their studies and they are two fine ladies. 

A big thank you to the Spierings Foundation for the wonderful work they are doing and what is most important and rewarding is that every dollar or every Euro donated to a child is making a big difference. It is giving hope and incentives to people who thought they could never do it. 

Hester it has been wonderful with you as team-leader at Hermanus.  You must get all the credit, I was the bystander and you were the motivator and coordinator. 

You can also be very proud of what you have achieved together with the Spierings. 

May you all have a MERRY CHRISTMAS, FROHE WEIHNACHTEN und einen schoenen Rutsch ins NEUE JAHR.

Mit vielen Gruessen von Joan und Werner Ladewig

Dear Paul and Butzi

We hope that you are well and look forward to see you  in the new year. We would just like to thank you once again for financially sponsoring five of our learners. Your generous sponsorship, camp weekends and cultural events are really making such a big difference in the learners’ lives and we can see that they have grown  in so many areas of their lives. The Little Einsteins have become like their own little family .The learners have completed their grade 11 exams  in November and all five will be in matric next year.
I am including the PPR and financial report for 2012.
Best wishes for a great festive season, a blessed Christmas and a prosperous new year to you and your family .
May the Lord richly bless you.

Dear Paul, Butzi and the rest of the Spierings foundation

I hope you guys are doing well. My exams are doing good and my final exams are done on Monday, 21 November. I am so releaved. Once again I would like to thank you all for your contribution and I do appreciate it more than words can say. I have recently heard that I have been accepted to study for a medical doctor at both Stellenbosch university and the university of Cape Town so I now have to choose one. I am really excited, but the only problem is that I am not sure about funding yet and that is really why I'm sending you this e-mail. You have already helped me so much and I regret having to ask your help again. At the beginning of the year I have to pay a registration amount of R7 500,00 and since I don't have bursaries yet I am unable to pay it. I was wondering if maybe you could help me in that regard and if you could give me a contribution towards that. I don't if know if there is a possibility that I can return your money if I get a bursary. I am really unsure of my funds right now, but I would much appreciate it if you could help me in any way. Thank you very much and I will understand if you are unabletohelp.You have done so much for all the Einsteins already.God Bless.

Betreff: Cape Einsteins Last CCM

Dear Paul I believe everything is well with both you and Butzi on the other side of the equator. We, the cape einsteins, are currently busy with our last camp for 2011. Florance,Rhonwyn and I had a discussion with the rest of the group on what improvements we should make in 2012 regarding the camps. We want it to be as much fun as possible. The group on the other hand states that they completely enjoy the activities done by the UWC mentors of Prof.Miki Flockermann. We plan on going further with this fun, yet educational activities. We aim to do this, because of which the we will all be much more enthusiastic with our attendance.

 The “Senior Einsteins” will be more active in 2012 and we will all make of this foundation a bigger success than it currently is. We also discussed the amount of camps which we will have in 2012,but I will give you more clarity on that once we have reached our final decision and heard your point of view. In the future we want our fellow learners,Hermanus and Overberg,  to join us  at the CCMs. they are missing out quite a lot.  Thank you for everything you do for us. Kindest regards.

Dear Paul and Butzi

This e-mail is probably my last to you for this year and I would just like to inform you of my progress and plans for next year.

 

I am done with my September exams and am now busy preparing for the end of the year. I am working really hard. I would like to just thank you for all the support throughout the last two years. I am very grateful.

 

I have applied to the University of Stellenbosch for a MBChB degree (medical doctor) and I am proud to tell you that I have been accepted conditionally. This means I will just have to work really hard to keep an above 70% average and to secure my place for next year. I would just like to say thank you once again because you have had a part in making my dream almost come true.

I hope you are well.Regards Eden Deelmanon:

Dear Paul,  Thanks for the role you and Butzi play in my life and the Cape Einsteins.

Thought (-: Keep Smiling :-)

If at times you feel you want to cry
And life seems such a trial
Above the clouds theres a bright blue sky
So make your tears a smile.

As you travel on lifes way
With its many ups and downs
Remember its quite true to say
One smile is worth a dozen frowns.

Among the worlds expensive things
A smile is very cheap
And when you give a smile away,
You get one back to keep.

Happiness comes at times to all
But sadness comes unbidden
And sometimes a few tears must fall
Among the laughter hidden.

So when friends have sadness on their face
And troubles round them piled
The world will seem a better place
And all because you smiled. :)

   Best. Florance Vermeulen

I also have a 80% for my favourite subject, Life Sciences. My maths and physics are dissapointing though but I'm going to do everything in my power to improve on that. The main reason for my maths downfall I would say, is the absence of our teacher because he was and is still sick. I'm now preparing for my End exam and very excited to pass grade 10 and make you proud.  Thank you very much for your support in my education From: Jeremy Dietsiso

We are at the CAT program today at Kylemore High.Miss Storm gave us a quick chance to e-mail you so I am taking this oppertunity to do so. I have learned a lot about microsoft word today.Now I'll know more of what to do when I get an Assignment.
I want to thank you for giving, not only me, but all the other kids the oppertunity to became more computer literate. I could not attend the program yesterday because I had Guitar lessons. Some of the boys slept at my house and they seem to be very decent boys.They said my mother makes them feel at home because she made us a huge breakfast this morning.I am not sure if they are going home tonight or tomorrow but if they go home tomorrow,I'm going to take them to a jazz concert tonight.I'm looking forward to go to the concert because one of the band members is my piano teacher.He is really good and he showed me that there is a lot more to piano than just playing.Once again,thank you for all you have done for us!!!!!  Logan

To SPIERINGS FOUNDATION 
RE: SPONSORSHIP OF ELTON NKANUNU 

The Spierings Foundation has made a huge contribution to the lives of a few learners at our school for the past couple of years.   We have much admiration for Mr and Mrs Spierings who travel so far and open their hearts to our learners who struggle financially, yet show great academic potential.  It is therefore with great dismay that we have recently been informed about certain implied irregularities concerning their sponsorship of Elton Nkanunu.
Elton has always been a special project of the Spierings Foundation, as he is not academically strong, but has a beautiful operatic voice which first drew the Spierings attention when he was singing on the sidewalks in Hermanus to earn some money for himself and his family. 
In fact, it was the Spierings’ generosity and concern that got him readmitted to our Hostel in 2008, even though his accommodation fees are several years in arrears.  It was the Spierings who tracked Elton down when he did not return to school at the beginning of the year (2008), and committed themselves to paying half of his hostel fees for the year, on condition that he promised to pay the other half.
The Spierings have been true to their word, but unfortunately Elton’s mother has not kept her side of the bargain.  Despite repeated attempts, Elton’s mother has not made herself available for a meeting at school so that this situation can be clarified.  However the Spierings continued their support of Elton in 2008.
We have come to know them as honorable people, and we sincerely value their contribution to the lives of our learners here at school.
