Snaaksste onderwyser-tradisie:
Tydens juffrou Madsen-Leibold se verjaarsdag hou haar brode (dis wat sy haar leerders grappenderwys noem) bospartytjie. Hulle gaan wandel en hou piekniek in die bos langs die skool en dan kruip die braafste van brawes eerste deur ‘n pyp wat onder die pad loop. Goggas en spinnerakke is die eerstes se voorland… maar daar is niks lekkerder as om skool te bunk SAAM met jou Afrikaans onderwyser nie!
Het juffrou Madsen-Leibold al ooit een van haar brode verloor OF geëet?
Winston het ‘n ouma, juffrou Anetha Prinsloo en hy gaan kuier gereeld naweke daar en kry dan sommer ekstra wiskunde-klasse ook!
