Greg Schoeman takes the helm at Noordskool as principal
Greg Schoeman said he and his team will continue building on the foundation cemented so well by former principals.
POLOKWANE –Â Even though Greg Schoeman is a well-known figure around Noordskool, he was warmly welcomed on his first day as the new principal last week.
He joined the school 15 years ago as a new teacher where he taught various subjects including Afrikaans, social sciences, English, natural sciences and creative arts.
For the past three years he took on the role of HOD for the intermediate and senior phase, more specifically Gr 6 and 7 as well as for learning and teaching support material.
“The best part is that I was once a learner at Noordskool and therefore have a very soft spot for the culture of the school.”
Greg is a dad and a husband who believes teaching is the most rewarding job there is, as you can see a child develop and learn new skills.
About his plans for the school he says he and his team will keep building on the foundation cemented so well by former principals.

“My mission is to be the best that I can be, with the talent God gave me. I have a wonderful wife who always gives me an ear and who is also a rational thinker. “
His wish for the school is to grow, and become one of the best double-medium schools in Polokwane.
Greg expressed words of appreciation to the teachers and staff and thanked them for the support they have given him, and says he looks forward to the journey ahead.
“At Noordskool we are a family and each one of us brings something special to the school. Each has a specific way that makes a difference. We should keep on doing that because as a family we need each other to function well.”
