Mr Albert Cele’s 51 Years’ Long Service Farewell
A few years ago, the Catholic Schools Office in Durban donated a trophy in memory of Brother Brendan O’Shea, Principal of St Henry’s from 1966-1981. The trophy recognises a member of the St Henry’s community who truly exemplifies what it is to be ‘Marist’; someone who in all that they do and say is a model of the five Marist characteristics.
One of the recipients of this trophy has been Mr Albert Cele, a member of staff at St Henry’s for an unprecedented fifty-one years. Mr Cele has advised us that he wishes to retire at the end of 2021, a loss indeed for the St Henry’s community.
Nonetheless, although a loss for us, Mr Cele’s many years of service, commitment and dedication will always remain an example of what it means to be Marist. When I think of Mr Cele, I think of words such as humility, wisdom, sincerity, authenticity and servant leadership. We need not consult books to learn these values; we need merely to reflect on Mr Cele’s five decades of service, and we will see them demonstrated on a daily basis.
