South Africa — ALMIE NAUDÉ -  Roodepoort National And International Editor

I am Almie Naudé. I am currently a cadet at the Roodepoort Record Newspaper.

I am 19 years of age and was born in Potchefstroom on the 22nd February 1993.

I matriculated last year, 2011, at Bastion High School in Krugersdorp.

I was a journalist, photographer and a secretary for their school papers, Die Kattekwaad and Het Katje. That is where I decided that I want to become a journalist.

I completed the Beeld Course for school paper writing in 2011.

I joined the Caxton Cadet School to train me in the field of journalism because it is fun for me and interesting as well, because you meet different people and can help to spread their word to the rest of the community.

The people who know me also know that I am a fair person and I am very loveable and caring.

I will do anything for just about anyone, because we all are brothers and sisters. 

I also enjoy giving advice to people and helping where I can.

I look forward to bringing you news that is accurate and fair on a weekly basis.

I leave you with the following thought: "When your consciousness becomes a still mirror, a still lake, a silent reservoir of energy, God is reflected in it." – Osho Quotes.

Chew on this thought for now and until we meet again, have a good one.

As a cadet, I’ll be given the chance to serve and better my community through my writing, and with it, I seek to touch lives, make a difference, inspire and motivate, and among all I want to share and make known of my community’s trials and tribulations.
With that being said, I want for my writing to question those in powerful positions as well as give praise to those who make a difference for our society.
To describe myself, I would say I ama fun, loving and caring person with the greatest curiosity imaginable, to put it bluntly, yes I am nosy, very much so.
I have been told that I’ve got a big mouth and it will one day get me into trouble but I beg to differ, I think that if it is this mouth that will get the community’s messages across, that will educate, entertain as well challenge the not so okay norms of this world then, by all means I will stand by this mouth of mine.
I look forward to my journey as a Cadet, with it, I hope to serve my community the best way I know how.
When passion and purpose meet, great things are yet to come.
