Geagte ouers en belangstellendes

Die papierwerk wat aan ons die reg gee om te begin met die konstruksie van Curro Hermanus is nou feitlik afgehandel. Die sperdatum vir kommentaar oor die ontwikkeling is Woensdag 5 Mei. Mnr Werner Zybrands, die munisipale bestuurder, het ons intussen in kennis gestel dat die Munisipaliteit ‘n formele vergadering met die minister in die Wes-Kaap regering aangevra het waardeur hulle die uitreik van die ROO sertifikaat wil bespoedig sodat ons die reg het om met die bouproses te begin. Ons is baie positief oor die uitkoms, maar het u hulp nodig.

Volgens Mnr. Zybrands het hulle ook positiewe briewe van belangstellende ouers uit die gemeenskap nodig waarin hulle die skoolontwikkeling ondersteun, vir die vergadering met die minister. Ek versoek u derhalwe om vir ons ‘n kort epos te stuur waarin u u ondersteuning vir die privaatskool ontwikkeling gee.  Rig dit aan helen@curro.co.za of edconrad@curro.co.za, om ons te bereik teen môre, 4 Mei, om 16:00.

Baie dankie vir u positiewe ondersteuning en reaksie. Ons waardeer dit.

Indien u met my in aanraking wil kom, skakel my gerus by 021 979 1204.

Vriendelike groete

Dear parents and others who are interested

The initial paper work to give us the go ahead to start the construction of Curro Hermanus is now in its final stages.  The deadline for commentary on the development is Wednesday 5 May. Mr Werner Zybrands, the municipal manager, has informed us that the Municipality has in the meantime requested a formal meeting with the minister of the Western Cape Government to see whether they can speed up the issueing of the ROD certificate that will give us the right to start the building process.  We are very positive about the outcome, but we need your help.

According to Mr Zybrands they need positive letters of support to the school by interested parents in Hermanus for their meeting with the minister.  I therefore request of you to please email us a short letter where you state your support for the private school development, to helen@curro.co.za or edconrad@curro.co.za, to reach us by tomorrow, 4 May at 16:00.

We appreciate yor positive support and reaction and we thank you.

Should you like to make contact with me, you are welcome to phone me on 021 979 1204.

Kind regards

Geagte voornemende Curro Hermanus ouer en ander belangstellendes

Ek hoop dat u almal ‘n baie geseënde en veilige Paasnaweek geniet het. Hier by die hoofkantoor, het ons ook ‘n lieflike ruskansie geniet. Hierdie is die eerste van ons beloofde nuusbriewe wat ons gereeld sal uitstuur om u in te lig oor ons vordering aangaande ons Hermanus ontwikkeling.

Eerstens wil ek u bedank vir u bywoning van die openbare vergadering wat gehou is op 23 Maart 2010 in die Grobbelaarsaal. Na aanleiding van ons terugvoer was die vergadering ‘n reuse sukses. Dit het ook aan ons die nodige inligting voorsien om ons ontwikkelingstrategie te verfyn en te verbeter. Dankie vir u positiewe insae. Ek het baie oproepe en eposse ontvang, waarvan die meeste van ‘n ondersteunende en positiewe aard was. Ons het ook reeds aansoeke van leerders ontvang, asook ‘n paar CV's van belangstellende opvoeders.

Ek het ‘n bemarkingsplan opgestel, tesame met die plaaslike radiostasie, Whale Coast FM. Ek het ook reeds ‘n uurlange onderhoud met Dr Nelia Louw op haar "Education on Air" program onderhandel, wat op 7 Mei uitgesaai gaan word. Advertensies sal ook in die Whale Talk Magazine en Hermanus Times geplaas word. Kyk gerus uit vir ons inligtingspamflette wat op gereelde intervalle versprei gaan word.

Ons ontwikkelingsplan is goed op dreef en ons het tot dusver geen terugslae gehad nie. Soos beloof sal die volle besonderhede van ons ontwikkeling by die volgende openbare vergadering, wat op 13 Mei 2010 om 19:00 sal plaasvind, gegee word. Hou die pers dop vir die vergaderplek se besonderhede. Die terugvoer wat ons van die munisipaliteit ontvang is positief en ons voorsien geen probleme met die ROD Sertifikaat nie. Gevolglik sal konstruksie binnekort kan begin. Die direksie het besluit om voort te gaan met die byvoeging van ‘n swembad, wat gevolglik deel sal wees van die ontwikkelingsplan vir Januarie 2011.

U is welkom om u aansoekvorm aan ons kantoor te stuur, soos uiteengesit in die prosedure op die webwerf. Ek nooi u ook uit om my enige tyd te kontak indien u verdere inligting verlang. Mondelingse bemarking is mees effektief en ons moedig u aan om die skool op hierdie manier te bevorder. As u moontlik in aanraking kom met enigiemand wat negatief is oor die ontwikkeling, of wat die verkeerde persepsie daarvan het, is u welkom om hulle na my te verwys.

Ek wil graag diegene wat reeds hul ondersteuning aan ons verleen van harte bedank, asook almal wat my met die bemarkingsproses help en ouers wat reeds hul kinders ingeskryf het. Ek wil u ook herinner dat u volgehoue ondersteuning en waardevolle insae van die grootste belang vir ons is. Kontak my gerus indien u my benodig.

Vriendelike groete

Dear prospective Curro Hermanus parents and all other interested parties

I hope that you all enjoyed a very blessed and safe Easter Holiday. Here at head office, we also enjoyed a lovely break. This is the first of our promised newsletters that we will regularly send out to inform you about the progress regarding our Hermanus development.

Firstly I would like to thank you for attending the public meeting held on 23 March 2010 in the Grobbelaar Hall. According to our feedback, the meeting was a huge success. It also provided us with the necessary information to improve and change our development strategies. Thank you for your positive inputs. I received numerous calls and e-mails, the majority being of a supportive and positive nature. We have already received enrolment forms for learners and a few CV's of interested educators.

I have set up a marketing plan with the local radio station, Whale Coast FM and I am already booked for an hour long interview with Dr Nelia Louw on her ‘Education on Air' show which will be broadcasted on 7 May. Advertisements will also be placed in the Whale Talk Magazine and Hermanus Times. Also keep an eye out for information flyers that will be distributed at regular intervals.

Our development plan is running smoothly with no hiccups so far. As promised, full details of the development will be given to you at our next public meeting which will be held on 13 May 2010 at 19:00. Watch the press for venue details. The feedback that we are getting from the municipality is positive and we don't foresee any problems with the ROD Certificate. We therefore anticipate that construction will be able to commence shortly. The board also decided to go ahead with the addition of a swimming pool which will therefore be included in the development plans for January 2011.

You are welcome to submit your application forms to our office, following the procedure as explained on the website. Also feel free to contact me if you need any further information. Word-of-mouth marketing is the most effective and we encourage you to promote our school in this way. If you get into contact with anybody who is negative about the development or who has incorrect perceptions about our school, please be kind enough to refer them to me.

I would like to thank those individuals who are already showing their support and who are helping me with the marketing process, as well as the parents who have already enrolled their children. Please remember that your continued support and your valued inputs are of the utmost importance. Please feel free to make contact with me whenever necessary.

Kind regards
