Vir die eerste keer gesonde trosse druiwe

Elizabeth Julies, oftewel Makkies van Grebestraat, Paarl-Oos, spog vanjaar vir die eerste keer met suksesvolle druiwetrosse wat aan haar wingerd hang. Vir die afgelope vier jaar dat sy die wingerd versorg het, is dit die eerste keer dat die wingerdstok sulke groot trosse dra.

Sy sê die geheim van haar sukses is om die wingerd ordentlik te laat ent.

Youngsters from different areas in Drakenstein attended the Manyano Centre’s Holiday Club Anti Crime Initiative. The aim of the holiday club is to give children the opportunity to be involved in positive activities during the school holiday. They take part in different sports activities and there are talks on crime prevention and drugs.

Hydrate and stay cool this summer In response to the prediction of very hot weather for the next few weeks, the start of school athletics programmes and the harvest season in full swing, Western Cape Government Health is reminding people of the following guidelines to help prevent heat stroke and exhaustion.

Babies, the elderly and people working or exercising in a hot environment are at particular risk for heat stroke/exhaustion. People using chronic medication need to drink extra water during heat waves to ensure that their kidneys are not further stressed.

General prevention for all ages: ) Stay out of the sun if at all possible, if not ) Wear a large hat to protect the head from the sun, use an umbrella to add shade. ) Use a small wet towel or cloth under hats or on shoulders to help keep cool. ) Stay hydrated – in the current temperatures, staying hydrated is most important – drink as much water as you need; ) Always carry water with you.

) Should you use a chronic medication, such as high blood pressure or diabetes medication remember that becoming dehydrated places extra stress on the kidneys, drink ample clean water. ) Use a rehydration solution if you are thirsty even though you are drinking water: Mix the following together in a clean bottle 1F water, 8 teaspoons sugar and ½ a teaspoon of salt. This is safe for all ages to drink especially for those people who work or exercise outdoors, such as children practising athletics and road or farm workers. ) Ensure that the elderly and infirm have easy access to water.

Tips for babies and children: ) Babies: Breastfeed on demand – breast milk is all that babies younger than 6 months require, you need not give the baby water or tea to ‘cool down’, they only need breast milk. ) Breast feeding mom’s must remember to drink extra water, cold rooibos tea also makes a refreshing and healthy drink. ) Take your baby to the clinic at the first sign of diarrhoea and/ or vomiting.

) Keep babies in the shade or indoors. ) Wipe baby down with a clean damp cloth – this will help keep them cool. ) Do not cover babies in a lot of clothing and blankets; light clothing is sufficient.

Older children: ) Keep babies and children in the shade. ) Avoid sports activities if possible, if sport is essential; ensure that there is a lot of water and rehydration solution available. ) Children must wear hats and sunblock. ) Keep children indoors between 11:00 and 16:00.

Tips for those working outside: This is for sports people, teachers and/or coaches and employers of builders, gardeners and others required to work outside: ) Keep your head covered, place a wet cloth under your hat to help keep cool. ) Make sure that there is lots of cool, clean water to drink. ) Take regular, short breaks in the shade. ) When taking a break, pour water over your head to help the

body cool down.

Symptoms of heat exhaustion/ stroke: Heat stroke can be fatal and should be treated as a medical emergency. Heat exhaustion is a less severe condition but can quickly progress to heat stroke if left untreated. Heat exhaustion and heat stroke occur when the body is unable to lower its temperature to normal levels through the skin or by sweating. Dehydration can cause heat stroke because the body is unable to sweat fast enough to dissipate the heat.

Signs of heat exhaustion include: ) Nausea or vomiting ) A pale pallor, (skin colour) ) Tiredness and weakness ) Headache ) Muscle cramps and dizziness If the symptoms are severe or the victim has a heart condition or high blood pressure, seek urgent medical help.

Give the person the oral rehydration solution described above.

Do not add too much salt – the mixture should taste like tears. Sports drinks or commercial oral rehydration solution are also effective.

Mbekweni shoot-out A 25-year-old man was killed and three others injured in three different shooting incidents in Mbekweni on Sunday.

In the first incident, at 01:00 on 18 January, two men were shot in front of their house in Chris Hani after robbers allegedly wanted to rob their house.

It is alleged that Bulelani Sankwenkwe (26) and Mmeli Mpolweni (29), were outside their house when four armed men entered their yard and fired shots at them. Sankwenkwe sustained a wound to his right arm and has been discharged from hospital.

Mpolweni was shot in his left shoulder and is still recuperating in hospital.

At 15:10 police responded to a second shooting incident in

H-Block. Upon their arrival they found two men, Mcebisi Phoswa (25) and Bokang Lefatsa (34), in a shack, lying in a pool of blood. Both were still alive.

Phoswa told police that they were sitting inside the shack when two men entered and, without saying a word, fired shots at them before running away.

Lefatsa sustained multiple wounds to his head, arm and leg, while Phoswa sustained a bullet wound to his upper torso.

Both victims were transported to Paarl Hospital, where Phoswa later succumbed to his injuries.

Nine empty 9 mm bullet cartridges and one bullet projectile were found at the crime scene. The police are

looking for Lubabalo Diko (Player) and Mzo, who can help in the investigation.

On Sunday night a policeman from Paarl’s Criminal Investigations Department and his family were also in the firing line when two suspects fired shots through their bedroom window in New Drommedaris. The Detective Constable woke up when two people were passing the bedroom window.

When he went to investigate, four shots were fired from outside. Fortunately no one was injured.

Cases of attempted murder and murder are being investigated. No arrests have been made. Anyone who can assist the police, must contact Mbekweni detectives on 021 868 9926.

Hoe jy jou kind kan help om te presteer in gr. 1 Jongelinge van oral in die Drakenstein-area het vandeesweek hul skoolloopbaan begin.

Dié gr. 1-leerders by Laerskool La Rochelle was gretig om aan die werk te spring op hul eerste skooldag in 2015.

NLB to focus more on early childhood development The National Lotteries Board (NLB) would like to encourage more early childhood development initiatives to respond to the organisation’s calls for funding, says Charlotte Mampane, chief executive of the NLB. Early childhood development is critical in ensuring that children have the best chance in life and the NLB would like to see more resources being directed towards these causes.

“The NLB is keen to play its part in ensuring that no child is left behind.”

Mampane says the NLB is proud of the early childhood development programmes that the organisation has brought under its wings including Refentse Preschool and Day Care Centre in Botshabelo, Free State, which received funding of up to R1 353 900.

The funding was allocated for operations, building renovations and for vehicle acquisition and maintenance purposes.

“However, unless the NLB receives applications from early childhood development centres on time and in the correct format, our hands as the NLB will remain tied.”

Mampane is pleased to see so many community organisations emerging throughout the country focusing on early childhood development.

“We would like to join their fight to give every child in South Africa an adequate start in life regardless of their family circumstances.

“We want to build a South Africa where a child’s family circumstances do not determine their destiny,” says Mampane.

Maar dit is nie net ’n skool se verantwoordelikheid om jou kind te help presteer nie, maar ouers speel ook ’n baie belangrike rol in kinders se opvoeding.

Ons moet almal weet wat om te verwag wanneer ons iets nuuts begin. Praat met jou kind en vind uit wat hy of sy verwag en wat hom/haar pla.

Sê aan jou kind dat jy hom/haar sal help met sy/haar lees en skryf in gr. 1, en dat jy hom/haar baie nuwe woorde sal leer. Verduidelik dat hy/ sy mooi moet luister in die klas en die werk so goed as moontlik doen wat aan hom/haar gegee word om te doen, Verduidelik dat dit pret en opwindend is om te leer.

Verduidelik ook dat die twee belangrikste dinge om te doen is om te leer lees, en hoe om somme te maak. Hierdie vaardighede is baie belangrik omdat dit vir hom/haar die wêreld van leer oopmaak.

Wees self deurgaans bewus van wat jou kind al moes geleer het van veral tale en wiskunde.

As jy self onseker is oor jou kind se vordering, gaan praat met hul onderwyser.

In gr. 1 gaan jou kind leer hoe om aandagtig te luister en vrae te vra. Jou kind sal ook leer hoe om die klanke van die alfabet te maak. Hy/ sy sal leer hoe om woorde te vorm en uit te spreek. Jou kind sal ook die stories geniet wat die onderwyser lees.

Deur te lees word jou kind blootgestel aan die regte en verbeeldingswêreld. Teen die einde van gr. 1 sal jou kind geleer het hoe om al die letters van die alfabet uit te spreek en te herken. Lees self ook vir jou kind en laat hulle vir jou lees.

Beantwoord hulle vrae en gesels oor die dag se gebeurtenisse by die skool.

Besoek ook gereeld jou naaste biblioteek met

hulle. En doen soveel moontlik om hul nuuskierigheid te wek en hul vrae te beantwoord.

Jou kind gaan nou ook geleer word hoe om ’n potlood, verfkwas en vetkryt te gebruik. Teen die einde van gr. 1 sal jou kind in staat wees om al die letters van die alfabet te skryf. Dit sluit woorde, sinne en stories in. Laat hulle soveel moontlik tuis ook oefen.

Maak tyd om oor die dag se gebeurtenisse te praat en oor wat hulle nuuts by die skool geleer het.

Maak jou kind bewus van die alfabet. (”Is daardie letter ’n ‘b’ of ’n ‘d’?”)

Doen basiese somme met jou kind, soos as die koerant op Saterdag R15 kos, en dit kos R5 op Maandag, hoeveel meer betaal ons dan op ’n Saterdag? Hiervoor kan jy maklik jou vingers gebruik om te wys.

In gr. 1 gaan jou kind oor driedimensionele voorwerpe leer (sfere, balle, bokse, prismas) en tweedimensionele vorms (sirkels, driehoeke en vierkante). Nog iets wat belangrik is, is die verhouding tussen voorwerpe; “Is die driehoek bo of onder die sirkel?”

Help hulle om lengte te verstaan deur ’n liniaal te gebruik om klein voorwerpe in die huis te meet.

Iets ook so eenvoudig soos om ’n kalender byderhand te hê en dat jou kind elke dag afmerk en dan ook maande. Dit help hulle om die dag van die week te kan lees asook nommers beter verstaan. So sal hulle ook die maande kan leer.

Gesels met jou kind se onderwysers oor hoe om jou kind se lees-, skryf- en wiskunde-vaardighede tuis te verbeter. Ondersteun jou skool – jy kan baie doen om seker te maak dat jou skool ’n gelukkige plek is om in te leer en te onderrig.

Jou kind se skool moet aan die begin van die jaar ’n assesseringsplan aan jou verskaf met ’n formele vorderingsverslag aan die einde van elke kwartaal.

Star Star Signs Signs CAPRICORN

22 December to 21 January

At this time you are inclined to invest your time and money into making your environment more beautiful and comfortable. You may also wish to enhance your personal appearance in some way, such as getting a new hair style or purchasing clothing, cosmetics, and the like. Social gatherings are also very positive for you now.

AQUARIUS

21 January To 20 February

Significant changes and opportunities face you at this time but making the correct decision about what to do is not easy. This is a period of critical decisions and transition. A major change in your life can occur now (new job, relocating, ending a long-term relationship or beginning a new one, etc.). In fact, it is not unusual for several important changes of this nature to be occurring.

PISCES

Friday 23 January 2015

You the Entrepreneur: What’s in a name?

DAVID MALHERBE What name shall I give my new business? Shall I name it after myself, for instance “Joe Soap’s Butchery”, or the town where I live, like “Koekenaap Beauty Parlour” or choose a name that describes what I am doing, for example “Fix-a-Dent Panel-beaters” or a name that has some special meaning for myself.

One can certainly name some advantages and disadvantages to each of the above, but I believe that to select the best name it is necessary to have a long term perspective.

What will happen if Joe Soap’s son or grandson, Andrew some-

day succeeds Joe in the business? Or what if Koekenaap Beauty Parlour becomes a runaway success and branches out to other towns? The name Koekenaap Beauty Parlour may sit somewhat uneasy in Rondebosch.

Last week I drove behind a vehicle advertising a business with a very descriptive name: “Earthquake Mobile Disco.” The name says it all.

You can almost feel the vibes you can expect should you make use of their services.

It is also necessary to consider a logo or slogan for advertising your business. “We will rock

you!” will go much better with Earthquake Mobile Disco than for example “Music for the moment.”

Furthermore, a shorter name usually works much better than one that is too long. “Flame’s Place” is much easier to market and advertise than “The Flame and Grill Pizzeria and Restaurant.”

Although the longer one is a lot more descriptive, the shorter one is just so much easier to use, for instance when you answer the phone.

The name is also important for branding purposes. To build a brand usually comes with years of

regular advertising and rendering an excellent product or service. Therefore one can also consider whether the name signifies quality or excellence and whether it is short and easy to remember.

Add to that the letter type and colours that you will use for branding purposes and you’ll realise that there is more to the name of your business than just putting something on paper. It is important to invest some time considering, selecting and planning the name and branding of your business.

David Malherbe is a business and career consultant and lives in Wellington and can be contacted on his webpage www.jedidiah.org.za, or by phone 021 873 0262, or on Facebook “Jy die Entrepreneur.”

20 February to 21 March

Today it is easy for you to concentrate on your work, to eliminate what is superfluous or distracting you from what you really need to do. You have the self-control and discipline to apply yourself to tasks that you may have been avoiding. You want to put your affairs in order and have a greater tolerance for tedium than usual. This is a good time to tackle mundane chores and practical business.

ARIES

21 March to 21 April

This is not the best time to schedule any activity that calls for tact, diplomacy, or caution, as you are inclined to be extremely straightforward, direct, and to the point in all of your interactions. You say exactly what you think, and in fact are even inclined to be verbally aggressive, pushy, or perhaps sarcastic. Your mind is very sharp now, so this is a good time to "attack" intellectual or mental work.

TAURUS

21 April to 21 May

Some change in attitude towards your ideals and spiritual values occurs now. This change is very inner and gradual, so it is not likely that you will have any great concern or difficulty about these changes. A new attitude toward the religious beliefs that you were taught as a child is very likely to develop now.

GEMINI

21 May to 22 June

At this time you enjoy emotional satisfaction and harmony in your home life. Relationships with women run smoothly. If you have a solid emotional base in your life, you will receive the benefits of that. If not, this is a good time to begin making connections with people and also to discover what gives real emotional nourishment and fulfillment.

CANCER

22 June to 23 July

This is a good time to schedule social activities or even business meetings where tact and friendliness would be a plus. You act as a diplomat and harmonizer between people with differing viewpoints.

Also, attending cultural events such as an art show or a play is favored. Thoughts of love, an appreciation for beauty, and an aesthetic enjoyment of your surroundings are brought to the fore.

LEO

23 Julie to 24 August

24 August to 23 September

Your desire for pleasure, ease, and affection is brought to the fore and may interfere with work or complicated situations in which you need to be acting assertively and on your own behalf. Your mood and attitude is conciliatory, and your need for love and approval heightened. Social gatherings and personal relationships are favored.

LIBRA

23 September to 23 October

Withdrawing from emotional social contact is favored now, for even when you are with others you are likely to feel separate and alone.

Sadness and disappointments in your personal life are also probable now. Inadequacies and flaws in your friends or lovers are particularly bothersome to you now, and you may feel that you have nearly exhausted your patience for dealing with these problems.

SCORPIO

23 October to 23 November

At this time you may feel out of your element or out of sync with yourself or your surroundings. Interference from others requires adjustment and perhaps sacrifice on your part. What you have to offer or want to do doesn't mesh well with what seems to be necessary. While not a full blown crisis, it is a time of strain and tension, which can be somewhat debilitating to your health.

23 November to 22 December

Fateful encounters which are not altogether pleasant are indicated. If you are in an established intimate relationship, it is apt to be rough sailing right now. Ultimatums, bringing up past pain and unresolved issues, jealousy, or unusual neediness or possessiveness may all be part of the scenario, and what makes all of this quite stressful is that most of it is not blatant but subtle and insidious.

THIS WEEK’S EXPECTED WEATHER TEMPERATURES

T-BONE WITH MUSTARD AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO BUTTER Ingredients: • T-bone steaks (make sure they are thick cut with a healthy portion of meat on the fillet side) • beef braai marinade of your choice • braai spice of your choice • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

FLAVOURED BUTTER: • store- bought garlic butter, softened • 1 Tbs • grainy mustard • 3 sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped

Method: Cover the steaks with marinade and refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Make sure all the steaks are well covered. A re-sealable zip-loc bag works best for this. Just add all the steaks and marinade and shake well. Braai the steak over very hot coals, about 3-4 minutes a side, turning only once. Season with braai spice as you go along. Remove from the heat. Top with a dollop of flavoured butter and enjoy the flavours melting into your steak.

Flavoured butter: Combine the ingredients to form a paste. Refrigerate until needed.

Volhard in jou resolusies Om Nuwejaar-resolusies te maak is ’n ou tradisie wat volgens Wikipedia dateer uit die antieke Babiloniese ryk toe Babiloniërs beloftes aan hulle gode gemaak het om al hulle skuld af te betaal en geleende items terug te besorg.

Deesdae bestaan Nuwejaar-resolusies grotendeels uit beloftes wat ons leefstyl beïnvloed. Ons sê vir ons self dat 2015 die jaar is wat ek gaan begin oefen, ophou rook, gesond eet of meer georganiseerd wees.

Meeste van die tyd sal ons die jaar volstoom met ons nuwe resolusies aanpak, maar teen middel Februarie

begin die ou gewoontes weer inkruip en voor die begin van Maart is al jou resolusies verbreek. Hier is ’n paar wenke om jou resolusies meer volhoubaar te maak: ) Bly binne jou perke en moet nie buitensporige resolusies maak wat onhaalbaar is nie. ) Vervang ou gewoontes met nuwe beter gewoontes. ) Vra vir familie en vriende om jou te ondersteun en aanspreeklik te hou. ) As jy jou resolusies verbreek, probeer weer. Elke dag is ’n nuwe geleentheid om veranderinge in jou lewe te maak.

Are you a student who wants to obtain your Grade 12 high school certificate?

Then consider the course American on Education’s GED Program, created in 1942 in the United States as second chance to complete your matric at Boston City Campus and Business College, Paarl.

The GED testing programme serves the equivalent purpose of a secondary school leaving certificate for employment or entry to further studies.

The subjects which must be completed are English reading, English writing, mathematics, science, social studies, and assessment fees to GED testing service will be charged separately.

The outcomes of the course will give students the opportunity to apply to study a higher education programme, meet many employer’s minimum requirement for employment, be a role model for their families or obtain the equivalent of a high school certificate for personal satisfaction.

People with a high school credential earn substantially more in a lifetime than people without. More than 20 million people have passed the GED test. The GED test is administered year-round at more that 2 700 testing cen-

tres worldwide. The GED test was created as a second-chance opportunity. The GED credential is recognised by nearly all employers and post-secondary institutions in the United States. To make it easy, everything you need is available online: teaching lessons, books, practice tests and even your own private mentor and tutor.

As entry requirement you must have the minimum of a Grade 10 certificate and be 16 years of age to enrol in the programme and take the GED test.

On successful completion the learner will be issued a GED High School Equivalency Credential issued by the Department of Education for Washington DC. According to Higher Education Enrolment, a programme of Higher Education South Africa (HESA), you may apply to study at a South African University with a General Education Diploma (GED) accompanied by a letter of admission from an appropriately accredited US university.

The GED 12 equivalence course is available throughout 44 tuition centres nationwide.

Clyde Smit (regs) se ma moes Woensdag by die nuwe skool in Wellington, Van Wyksvlei Primêr, klou vir lewe en dood om die huilende Clyde te keer om nie die pad te vat huistoe nie.

Sy maters, Asken Isaacs, Jordan Isaacs, Austin Isaacs, Handre Lukas en Meshaan Damon, wat saam met hom staan en wag het dat hul eerste skooldag moet begin, het wel daarin geslaag om die trane terug te hou, maar die grootmense moes ook heeltyd keer dat hulle nie saam met Clyde voet in die wind slaan nie.
