Ghita Lubbe (onderwyser/Teacher)


Onderwyseres:

Ghita Lubbe was een van daardie kinders wat op die verhoog groot geword
het. Tussen kostuums, grimering, helder ligte, oorverdowende klank en
skarrelende klein akteurs, het sy die wêreld van toneel in sy volle glorie leer
ken. 

Ghita het die medium van Drama tydens haar hele skoolloobaan
beoefen en het gereeld met toekennings weggestap vir haar vertolkings van
verskeie Drama-items. Sy spog ook met met verskeie toekennings vir
afdelingswenner by verskeie kunswedstryde.

Ghita het na skool die Dramawêreld vir ‘n wyle verlaat en haar Diploma in
Haarkappery en Grimeerkuns by Centurion Akademie verwerf. Haar sterk
leierseienskappe het haar baie vinnig in die posisie as takbestuurder by Gary
Rohm Haarsalon in Brooklyn geplaas. Sy het egter agter gekom dat die Dramawêreld in haar bloed is en verwerf haar Dramalisensiaat met lof by die Jo Christal Akademie.

Ghita is ook tans besig om haar BEd in senior fase by Unisa te voltooi. As ma
van twee dogtertjies, sien sy baie daarna uit om, met Drama as medium, ‘n
dinamiese en positiewe impak op ander kinders se lewens te maak.

 


Teacher: 

Ghita Lubbe was one of those children who grew up on stage. Between costumes, make-up, bright lights, over deafening sound and scurrying little actors, she has known the world of Drama in its full glory. 

Ghita practiced the medium of Drama throughout her entire school career and regularly walked away with awards for her interpretations of several Dramatic Arts categories. She also received several divisions winners’ awards at various Drama competitions. 

Ghita left the Drama World after school and obtained her Diploma in Hairdressing and Make-up at Centurion Academy. Her strong leadership traits very quickly placed her in the position as branch manager at Gary Rohm Hair Salon in Brooklyn. After a few years in the hair industry she realized that the Drama World was in her blood and obtained her Drama Licensee with praise at the Jo Christal Academy. 

Ghita is also currently busy with her BEd in senior phase at Unisa. As mother of two little girls, she looks forward and is determent to use Drama as medium, to make a life changing impact on other children’s lives.
