Straw Hats with Soul
Meet the seasoned ladies backing the Prim
- Die Ou Doppe -
The Prim Committee, also known as “Die Ou Doppe” is a group of 5 dynamic senior ladies within the residence who blazed trails during their years in the residence. These ladies served on various Wag-n-Bietjie structures and wear the skillie with pride! With this pride and expertise, they come together to act as a support system for the current Primaria and the House Committee.
Apart from supporting and advising residence leadership, each Ou Dop has been assigned a few portfolios. These portfolios range from functionary portfolios that ensure that the Ou Dop structure works efficiently, and other portfolios that entail the planning of traditional events.
A special message from the Primaria to the Ou Doppe

This term is about sowing the seed that will bloom in the future, focusing on the goal ahead and sowing the seed well!
