I am applying for the position of Sport Enrichment Officer (SOE) in the Eden & Central Karoo District because I am committed to strengthening school enrichment programmes and ensuring that every learner—regardless of background or ability—has access to quality sport, culture, and recreational opportunities. My professional experience in school sports administration, programme coordination, and stakeholder engagement has equipped me with the skills needed to support the district’s mandate of promoting learner participation, social inclusion, and holistic development.

I am particularly motivated by the role’s focus on monitoring and supporting the implementation of School Enrichment (SE) policies. I have a strong understanding of policy compliance processes and have previously managed reporting systems, prepared formal documentation, and ensured alignment between school activities and district expectations. This experience positions me well to provide accurate quarterly reports and ensure consistent monitoring across Public Ordinary and Public Special Schools.

My background has also developed my ability to encourage participation and manage large-scale sporting activities—including fixtures, festivals, leagues, and interschool programmes. I understand the importance of building relationships with schools, coaches, SGBs, and community partners to ensure that learners are provided with meaningful opportunities in sport, arts, and culture.

One of the core strengths I bring is my ability to collect, analyze, and manage data effectively. I have worked extensively with administrative systems, monitoring tools, and digital platforms to compile accurate activity records, track participation levels, and produce structured reports for management. This will ensure that district-level decisions are informed by reliable and updated information.

In addition, I have hands-on experience with procurement processes, managing sport equipment, and supporting school facilities. I understand the practical responsibilities involved in maintaining an effective equipment system—from storage and issuing procedures to ensuring accountability and proper return of items. I am confident in my ability to support funded projects, assist with transfer payment processes, and ensure that equipment reaches the schools that need it most.

What drives me most is the belief that sport and cultural activities build stronger, healthier, and more socially cohesive school environments. By promoting music, dance, drama, visual arts, and sport, we create spaces where learners feel included and valued. This aligns fully with my personal values and my passion for community upliftment through education and enrichment.

For these reasons, I believe I can make a positive and meaningful contribution as a Sport Enrichment Officer and support the Eden & Central Karoo District in achieving its goals of quality education and learner development.

Arrange outings during weekends and accompany learners to and from sporting activities. Annual Educational Tour to Cape Town every September/October holiday
