Limpopo skolenuus platform Meer as 2000 skole landswyd deel direk hulle skolenuus met AWSUM wat dan op die aanlynplatform geplaas word. Na sewe jaar is dié platform gegroei tot die grootste skolenuus platform in Suid-Afrika. Die nuus-platform het ontstaan na die sukses van skoolkoerante regoor die land, waar ons nie al die nuus kon publiseer nie, maar skole graag
weier as hulle direkte area bloostelling wou gehad het, sê Durandt van Zyl, uitvoerende hoof van TieMedia wat die AWSUM handelsnaam bestuur. Lees die nuutste skolenuus op die grootste skolenuus platform in Suid-Afrika, naamlik www.awsumnews.co.za

Lumicke Groenewald Laerskool Pietersburg-Oos, Hoofdogter Baie geluk met jou verkiesing as hoofleier by jou skool. Waarna sien jy die meeste uit tydens jou tydperk as leier by jou skool? Daar is klomp goed waarvoor ek nie kan wag nie, maar een van die goed waarna ek seker die meeste uitsien, is om al die aktiwiteite by die skool aan te bied. Wat sou jy sê is jou sterk- en swakpunte? Sterkpunte: Ek is nie skaam nie, ek is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Swakpunt: Ek huil maklik vir ander se omstandighede. Is daar enige iets wat jy graag sou verander by jou skool? Ja, om meer tyd by die skool te spandeer om die Here te dien soos byvoorbeeld om op Vrydae pouses te “worship”.
Enige boodskap van aanmoediging vir jou mede-leiers? Wees altyd net die beste jy wat jy kan wees en wees diensbaar. Wie is jou rolmodel? Lenize Potgieter. As jy ‘n super-hero kon wees, wie sou dit wees en waarom? Wonder Women - Sy wil altyd die wêreld ‘n beter plek maak vir almal om haar. Op ‘n normale Saterdag, sal ons jou kry by… saam met… Heel waarskynlik by die huis besig om te swem af by die dam saam met my maats. Wie is jou Hollywood ‘celeb crush’? Jace Norman.
Wat geniet jy die meeste van jou skool? Al die gees en omgee in ons skool en die Kalanderfees wat ons skool aanbied. Na watter hoërskool gaan jy in 2023? Pietersburg Hoërskool (PHS).

What are you looking forward to the most during your term as leader? This might not be as easy as I expected/ perceived it to be, but I am really looking forward to being a great example of what a leader is to my fellow classmates, friends and the whole school in general. I look forward to moving around my area or nearby schools proving to young students that everyone can be a great leader and that it can also be fun and not just work.
Matric is your final year, from an academic point of view, what are you aiming for? For my final year in high school I am aiming to pass the year with flying colours that I’m even able to enter any university of my choice. I also want to have many options and be able to do any course that corresponds with my subject choices. Who is your role model? My grandmother is my role model. There is a lot I could say about her and her accomplishments. She is the most wise, respectful, truthful, beautiful woman I know and so much more. Who is your Hollywood celeb crush? My Hollywood celeb crush is Michael B. Jordan.
Selasie Boateng Best Junior Shooter
If I could be a superhero, I would love to be Black Panther because he was not only a king and a protector but also represents people of colour and he fights for what many have been trying to fight for in the real world. He always stood his ground and knew what was right and wrong when it came to fighting for people of colour. He did not bow or give away. He takes into consideration ethnic minorities and teachers us so much of what is happening in our world today. On a regular Saturday, you will find me.. with.. On a regular Saturday you would find me at home with my family or out to eat with my friends.

What are your strengths and weaknesses?
What do you love the most about your school? One thing I love about my school is that it’s a small school and everybody knows or can interact with everybody.

What will you message of encouragement be for your prefects/co-leaders? Don’t let the feeling of being head boy or head girl get to your head, stay humble and thank whoever helps you on your journey. Who is your role model? The Prophet Muhammed PBUH. What are your plans after matric in 2023? I plan to move back to England and to study Aviation Management in the University of West London. If you could be any superhero, who do you want to be and why. Superheroes were never my go to people. Hollywood celebrities use to much make up, Who is your Hollywood celeb crush? hence no crush.

“Out of the 64 countries, South African learners in Grade 5 scored an average of 374 for mathematics, and 324 for science – far below the 400 basic threshold”
Maths and science are often considered the two most difficult school subjects that are so often avoided by students, yet they can have a significant impact on what a learner can do when they leave school. STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) skills are critical in today’s fast-paced world, but it is evident that learners in South Africa are showing less of an appetite for subjects like maths and science. This mainly comes down to misconceptions and negative perceptions of maths and science, rather than one’s ability or aptitude for the subject. “Our youth are brought up to believe that maths and science are too difficult, that it has no real value in the real world and, therefore, they are not worth the effort,” says Prof Azwinndini Muronga, Executive Dean of Science at Nelson Mandela University. “What many learners and parents fail to realise is that maths and science are enabling subjects that are a gateway to higher education and beyond,’’ says Prof Muronga. “They lay the foundation in applying knowledge when encountering complex principles competently in the school curriculum, at university and later on in life.” The performances of learners in maths and science are well below par compared to other countries. Out of the 64 countries, South African learners in Grade 5 scored an average of 374 for mathematics, and 324 for science – far below the 400 basic threshold – despite being older than their counterparts.
acquired basic mathematical knowledge, and just 36% of learners in Grade 9 science learners had acquired basic science knowledge. Cultivating a curiosity through maths and science Young people have a natural curiosity about the world around them. Learnings from maths and science ‘plant the seed’ in gaining an understanding of the order of things and how they work. These skills are honed on the education journey and applied in scenarios that go beyond the classroom, such as in the kitchen, garage, in nature and the rest of tangible reality. “Maths and science give learners more choice when it comes to applying to study at university,” says Prof Muronga. “Without them, they would not be eligible for programmes and apprenticeships in the fields of science, engineering and even commerce, as many higher education institutions place a strong emphasis on maths and science,” says Prof Muronga. Maths is also beneficial in other areas including problem-solving, quantifying and interpreting data, the comprehension of text, debating, project management, and personal finance. Science and technology can cultivate creativity, observation, analytical research, and can also have an impact on society such as sustainability and environmental conservation.
While only 41% of Grade 9 mathematics learners demonstrated that they had
