Sy kom van Limpopo en het in 2017 gematrikuleer en in 2018 Pastorale Berading by die Noord-Wes Universiteit studeer. Dit is waar sy haar trouman, ‘n Vrystaat boer, ontmoet het.

Welkom-Gimnasium High School is the oldest academic high school in Welkom, established in 1953. All the other high schools in Welkom stem from Gimnasium. See also History of Gimnasium.
The mission of Welkom-Gimnasium is to produce outstanding, well balanced young adults who can maintain themselves with a positive attitude in a changing environment. As a leading institution we achieve this by applying recognized educational principles and modern innovative methods.
We visualize a leading educational institution where values and patriotism are fostered.
A bit of history: The energy and founding of Welkom-Gimnasium came about as a result of the incredible pace of development that occurred in the pulsating Free State Goldfields that was seemingly transformed from bare veld into a sprawling city by a magic wand. The staff and school commission felt that various high schools would mushroom in future decades and therefore deliberated on a name that would set them apart. The input given by the spouse of one of the staff members (Mr. M.J. van der Vyver) to name the school “Gimnasium” was immediately ratified. Because the Gimnasia were the first and oldest high schools in the European school system – this first high school in Welkom would be known as “Welkom-Gimnasium”.
Welkom-Gimnasium is in 1953 gestig en is die oudste akademiese hoërskool in Welkom. Al die ander hoërskole in Welkom is uitvloeisels van Welkom-Gimnasium. Sien Geskiedenis van Gimnasium.
Welkom-Gimnasium se missie is om uitstaande en gebalanseerde jong volwassenes te lewer wat met ‘n positiewe ingesteldheid, binne ’n veranderende leefwêreld, hulself kan handhaaf.
