Dear Bellatrix Ladies

It is truly an honor for me to be the House Parent of Bellatrix Ladies’ Day House. The valleys you have walked and the infamous Weet and Sweet is very much known to me. It was an absolute honor to be able to complete my studies at the NWU Potchefstroom campus and it is also a privilege for me to call NWU my home for my formal career at Student Counselling and Development as a Senior Industrial Psychologist.

As a house parent, I want to encourage you to partake in all the opportunities that Bellatrix and the NWU provides to you. It takes a mere 30 seconds to challenge your fears and to go for the things you hope to achieve. I am here with you when we celebrate your many successes, and I am also for you when the tears flow from disappointment. I am only a call or an office space away.

Trixie-love,
Juan-Ri Potgieter, Bellatrix House Parent
