Anabelle Davids

I was born in the Western Cape in a town called Worcester, where I spend my early childhood and the start of my primary school years. Due to my father’s work obligations we relocated to different towns and cities around South Africa. We stayed in Johannesburg, George, Gqeberha and recently relocated to Paarl in the Western Cape. As a result of this, I was fortunate to experience diverse cultures, meet new people and make new friends. When I was taken out of my comfort zone, I learnt the importance to adapt to different situations, to be open to new opportunities and to embrace change. Throughout my childhood I played many sports, which included swimming, rhythmic gymnastics, dancing, netball, and athletics. In grade 11 and 12, I competed in the long jump event, at the Eastern Province Athletic Championships. I was honoured as my schools long jump champion of the year in grade 11 and 12, and was selected as the athletics captain in my matric year. I matriculated at Collegiate Girls High School in 2020 and I am now studying at Stellenbosch University. I am studying Education Intermediate Stage and I am part of the Maties Athletic Club. The opportunities I got to work was truly a blessing, as I learnt so many lessons and got to experience different fields of work. When I am given a task, I always make sure I do it correctly and the best of my ability. My parents taught me to never give up on something once you started it. I always approach my work with vibrant energy, enthusiasm and focus. I am honest, trustworthy, dedicated and have a determination to be successful.
