HEADMASTER’S HOEKIE<br />
A special word <strong>of</strong> thanks to all our parents, old boys and other supporters for the way<br />
you‟ve carried us through the rather hefty project which is interschools. Five things<br />
stand out for me as defining moments <strong>of</strong> the <strong>2011</strong> interschools:<br />
The overall competition was much tougher than in recent years. That‟s the way it<br />
should be. For one school to dominate results as Boys‟ <strong>High</strong> had been doing up<br />
to now, is a bit like bingeing on chocolate; It‟s sweet, but not necessarily healthy!<br />
The 1946-class had a reunion, and I was fortunate enough to have lunch with<br />
them between the hockey first team match and the u.15-rugby match. It was<br />
absolutely fabulous to hear all the stories. They also raised a large amount <strong>of</strong><br />
money for the Eugène Marais project. It made me feel really proud to be a part <strong>of</strong><br />
an organization that can inspire such loyalty and commitment!<br />
The old boys carrying their team <strong>of</strong>f the field after the main match , win or lose,<br />
was special. You don‟t get better than that, finish and klaar!<br />
And listen to this: After the first team match, we were all standing in the cloak<br />
room, feeling absolutely down-hearted. While we were talking, I suddenly heard<br />
young male voices singing outside. At first I thought I was hallucinating because<br />
<strong>of</strong> the disappointment at the first team‟s unexpected defeat! But it turned out that<br />
the matrics all decided to come down to the cloak room to comfort their mates!<br />
As the players came out, their fellow matrics shook their hands in proud support!<br />
This was truly a magic moment, one which I shall not spoil with further<br />
description.<br />
Finally: the following was the response on the blog at the rugby 365.com website<br />
from a Bishops old boy, one Andrew Eaton: “Die feit dat jy geen gekla van enige<br />
Boishaai- manne êrens sien nie, spreek groot woorde vir julle skool. Anyone can<br />
win and be humble about it, but it takes a bigger man to lose with humility.<br />
Boishaai lost with dignity and my respect for you guys has increased!”<br />
Thank you very much, sir! Nou ja, nou vir Interskole 2012!
SNAAKSE STORIE VAN DIE WEEK<br />
Van Donder tot Bliksem:<br />
Vervolgens „n Boishaaistorie uit die 1946-klas. „Skuus vir die ou kras woordjie <strong>of</strong> twee,<br />
maar ek moes hierdie ene net vertel: Mnr. Mark Rushton vertel hoe hy en sy jarelange<br />
boesemvriend en mede-Boishaaier, Kaffie Malherbe, bevriend geraak het. Mnr.<br />
Rushton het in die vroeë negentienveertigs as ‟n jong Engelsman uit die stad by Werda<br />
ingestap, en hom onmiddellik vasgeloop in die groot en sterk Malherbe (dié het ook<br />
later vir die eerste rugbyspan gespeel). Daardie jare was die negatiewe sentiment<br />
tussen Boer en Brit nog baie lewendig. Terstond stamp Malherbe vir Rushton dat hy op<br />
die naat van sy rug beland. “Ja, lê daar jou donnerse Engelsman!” laat hoor Malherbe<br />
wrewelrig, terwyl Rushton die stomme verbasing self is.<br />
Toe dit nou ook nog duidelik word dat Rushton ‟n hokkiespeler is en nie ‟n rugby-man<br />
nie, was dit vet op die vuur. “Kyk die Engelsman! Hy speel dan ‟n meisiesport,” word hy<br />
gekoggel. Tot die Engelsman uiteindelik besluit: genoeg is genoeg!<br />
“Nou toe, Malherbe,” sê hy eendag na ‟n gespottery, “hoekom kom jy nie vanmiddag<br />
saam met my klub toe en kom speel ‟n bietjie hokkie nie?”<br />
“Nee dankie, ek speel nie „n meisiesport nie” laat hoor Malherbe snedig.<br />
“O so? Jy is nie dalk maar net bang nie, <strong>of</strong> hoe Malherbe?”<br />
Nou kyk, dít moes jy nie vir die boerseun sê nie! Daardie einste middag bevind<br />
Malherbe hom op die hokkie- oefenveld, met Rushton as sy direkte teenstander.Grynslaggend<br />
wag hy Rushton in toe dié op pad is doelhok toe. Rushton klop<br />
hom egter gemaklik en Malherbe se glimlag verwyn. Verder slaan Rushton hom ‟n paar<br />
maal lekker hard op die enkels. As Malherbe boonop fisies wil raak, skouer die maer<br />
Engelsman hom ewe nonchalant uit die pad! Aan die einde van die sessie kom<br />
Malherbe, doodmoeg en hinke-pink, aangestap na waar die manne water drink.<br />
“En wat sê jy nou, Malherbe? “ wil Rushton met ‟n glimlag weet. Vir ‟n oomblik kyk<br />
Malherbe hom kwaai aan. Dan sprei ‟n breë glimlag oor sy gesig en hy plaas ‟n<br />
gespierde arm om Rushton se maer skouers.<br />
“Rushton,” sê hy, “ jy‟s darem maar ‟n bliksem van ‟n Engelsman, nè!”<br />
Nou ja toe!<br />
„n Vrede- (en vreugde) volle week vir elkeen!<br />
