About This Item

Coin "juf Saskia"

NL: Deze coin is door de laatste leerlingen van Juf Saskia (Panta Rhei - Ede) op reis gestuurd. Juf Saskia, ze hield veel van reizen en de natuur, werd halverwege het schooljaar in 2013 ziek en overleed een klein jaar jaar later. De idee is dat we regelmatig aan haar herinnerd worden, als de coin gevonden wordt en naar een volgende plek reist. Misschien willen haar man en kinderen de coin nog bezoeken komende tijd. Laat haar daarom tot september 2014 in Nederland.
De vogels op de coin horen bij het volgende gedicht, symbolisch voor de wens die "juf Saskia" deelde met haar omgeving:

Je kunt de vogels van verdriet niet verhinderen over te vliegen,
je kunt ze slechts verhinderen zich te nestelen

(van Sharon Creech - Walk two moons)

 

ENG: This coin started its travel in Ede – Netherlands. The coin started her journey in a travelbug hotel, brought there by the last pupils of teacher Saskia (“Juf Saskia” in Dutch). “Juf Saskia”, she loved traveling and nature, felt ill in 2013 and died a year later. The idea is we remember her, each time the coin is found and travels to the next place. Maybe her husband and children want to visit the coin next period, so you are kindly requested to leave the coin the Netherlands (until September 2014).
The birds on the coin are symbolic for the message "juf Saskia" had for her pupils:

You can't keep the birds of sadness from flying over your head,
but you can keep them from nesting in your hair

(by Sharon Creech - Walk two moons)
