Question

class Theme
{
    function __construct()
    {

    }

    function load( $folder, $file )
    {
        $theme_path = ROOTPATH . '/theme/' . $folder . '/' . $file . '.php';
        require_once($theme_path);
        return TRUE;
    }
}

on index.php

<?php

require class.theme.php
$theme = new Theme;
$theme->load('site','index');
?>

on my site/index.php

<?php 
// to work i need another $theme = new theme; why can i do this ? can i make 
it make it work twice or more inside the function load ?   
$theme->load('site','header');
$theme->load('site','footer');
?>

somehow it needs to $theme = new Theme; again on site/index.php

is there another way to make it work? maybe my class design is not good or algorithm is failing.

edit* more information
ok so what im trying to do is to load header view footer view.
