Today marks an extraordinary moment as you turn the page to a brand new chapter in your life story. This day is a celebration of your hard work, resilience, and the unwavering determination that has brought you to this proud milestone. Watching you cross the stage is the highlight of our academic year, and a wonderful tribute to your perseverance.
Pursuing an academic journey is never easy – it takes discipline, grit, and a steadfast commitment to your dreams. From the very moment you earned your place at CPUT (a university that receives over half a million applications each year) you have demonstrated that you have what it takes to succeed. However, this achievement is not yours alone, it is shared with your family, friends, spouses, and children. They have cheered you on, supported you through late nights and early mornings, and never stopped believing in your potential. Let the joyful celebrations in this hall echo the collective pride felt by everyone who has been part of your journey.
BOODSKAP VAN DIE VISEKANSELIER
Vandag word gekenmerk deur ‘n buitengewone oomblik soos elkeen wat gradueer die bladsy omblaai na die begin van ‘n nuwe hoofstuk in julle lewensverhale. Hierdie geleentheid vier julle harde werk, toewyding en volharding. Om te aanskou hoe julle grade ontvang, is die perfekte hoogtepunt van ons akademiese jaar, en getuig van julle vermoë om te volhard.
Die reis om by ‘n universiteit te studeer, is nooit maklik nie, en verg dissipline sowel as veerkragtigheid. Julle het uitstaande toewyding gedemonstreer deur koers te hou en in die toekoms te belê. Hierdie vasbeslote ingesteldheid het sigbaar geword die
oomblik toe elkeen van julle by KSUT – ‘n institusie met jaarliks meer as ‘n halwe miljoen aansoeke – aanvaar is. Hierdie prestasie behoort nie net aan julle nie, maar word gedeel deur die familie-lede, ouers, wederhelftes en kinders wat julle deurlopend ondersteun het. Mag die uitbundige toejuiging wat hierdie saal vul, ons herinner aan hierdie kollektiewe trots van almal wat deel was van julle reis.
Hierdie jaar se reeks gradeplegtighede is besonder betekenisvol, aangesien ons ‘n Ere-doktersgraad toeken aan die uittredende Kommissaris van die Suid-Afrikaanse Inkomstediens, Edward Kieswetter. Hy is
This year’s graduation series is especially meaningful as we award an Honorary Doctorate to the outgoing Commissioner of the South African Revenue Service, Edward Kieswetter. He is one of our very own alumni, and his remarkable career is a shining example of where a CPUT education can lead.
As CPUT approaches its 21-year milestone, we encourage you to stay connected, whether through the Convocation, mentoring, or creating opportunities for future students. Remember, learning is a lifelong endeavour, and today is only the beginning.
Vice-Chancellor
Prof Chris Nhlapo
een van ons eie alumni. Sy merkwaardige loopbaan is ‘n skitterende voorbeeld na waar ‘n KSUT-opleiding mens kan neem.
Terwyl KSUT se 21-jaar mylpaal nader, moedig ons julle aan om betrokke te bly aan die hand van formele strukture soos die Konvokasie, as mentore op te tree, of toekomstige gegradueerdes te ondersteun deur middel van werksgeleenthede. Ten slotte, onthou dat ‘n lewenslange leerproses die sleutel is tot volhoubare sukses –vandag is net die begin.

SHIRENE SHARON ALEXANDER
Diploma in Grade R Teaching
After matriculating, Shirene Sharon Alexander studied Catering, Hygiene and Safety at Cape College. She then completed an Educare Certificate at Bergzicht Training School in Stellenbosch, working as an au pair on farms near Klapmuts. During that time, she completed her NQF Level 4 and 5 at Boland College, and started to work at a playschool. In 2013, the principal at Klapmuts Primary School saw her potential, and appointed her to teach Grade R at the school. From her high school years, Shirene had a passion for helping others, and also had a strong love for Mathematics. When Grade R became part of the mainstream education system and teachers were expected to have a BEd degree, it motivated her to improve her qualifications, and she decided to complete the Diploma in Grade R.
The first two years were financially challenging because she had to pay for her studies and also provide for her daughter, a student at UWC. With perseverance and faith, she remained determined, and completed the Diploma in Grade R Teaching at CPUT in 2025, the top student in her class. She currently still teaches at Klapmuts Primary School.
