Boelies – Help so jou kinders Baie ouers is nie bewus daarvan dat hul kind moontlik ‘n slagoffer van afknouery in die skoolomgewing kan wees nie – totdat dit te laat is. Kinders wil nie altyd hul ouers vertel dat hulle afgeknou word nie, uit vrees vir wat die boelie aan hulle sal doen as hulle uitpraat, of omdat hulle skaam of verleë is daaroor.

Daar kan baie redes wees waarom jou kind jou nie wil vertel dat hy afgeknou word nie: daarom is dit jou werk as ouer om ‘n oog (en ‘n oor) op jou kind te hou. Wees bewus!

Afknouery is ‘n wêreldwye probleem en Suid- Afrika is beslis geen uitsondering nie. Volgens ‘n Unesco-verslag1 word bykans 250 miljoen kinders en jongmense jaarliks op ‘n globale skaal afgeknou. Navorsing toon dat boelies daarop uit is om sekere kinders te treiter en af te knou weens verskeie redes, soos verskille in etniese en kultuurgroepe, liggaamlike voorkoms, of seksuele of geslagsoriëntasie. ‘n Boelie situasie word gekenmerk deur 6 definiërende faktore7, nl.: •

Intensie om iemand skade te berokken – Die oortreder vind genot daarin om die slagoffer te domineer en uit te tart.

•

Intensiteit en die duur van die situasie – Die boelie hou aan met sy gedrag oor ‘n lang periode en die afknouery veroorsaak dat die slagoffer se selfbeeld ‘n knou kry.

•

Mag oor die slagoffer – Die boelie het mag oor die slagoffer a.g.v. ouderdom, fisiese krag, grootte of geslag.

•

Kwesbaarheid van die slagoffer – Die slagoffer is meer sensitief vir ‘n getergery, kan himself nie voldoende verdedig nie en het fisiese of sielkundige eienskappe wat hom meer kwesbaar maak vir boelies en viktimisering.

•

•

Gebrek aan ondersteuning – Die slagoffer voel geïsoleerd en blootgestel. Soms is die slagoffer bang om afknouery te rapporteer uit vrees vir vergelding.

Gevolge – Die skade wat die slagoffer se selfbeeld opdoen, kan lank voortduur en kan daartoe lei dat die slagoffer homself van skoolaktiwiteite onttrek, of ook aggressief begin raak.

Afknouery kan verskeie vorme aanneem, naamlik:

3. Verandering in geaardheid

•

Fisies (skop, slaan of boks);

•

Verbaal (noem kinders name, dryf die spot met hulle of maak dreigemente);

•

Emosioneel (sosiale uitsluiting, intimidasie deur gebare of dreigemente);

As ‘n ouer moet jy jouself afvra of jou kind se geaardheid verander het en of hy buierig is terwyl hy voorheen gelukkig of toeganklik was. Só ‘n verandering kan die gevolg wees van hormonale veranderinge, veral by tieners, maar dit kan ook ‘n teken wees dat iets of iemand jou kind seermaak.

•

Rassistiese afknouery;

•

Seksueel; en

•

Kuberafknouery (deur die internet op sosiale media soos Facebook; of deur selfone met haatboodskappe of afdreiging)

Vyf tekens wat kan aandui dat jou kind ‘n slagoffer van afknouery is 1. Ongewillig om skool toe te gaan As jou kind dit normaalweg geniet om skool toe te gaan en ewe skielik nie meer wil gaan nie, kan dit daarop dui dat hy by die skool afgeknou word.

4. Vriendverskuiwings Hou jou kind se vriendegroep dop, want só kan jy agterkom wie hy ignoreer. Jou kind kan homself van ‘n vorige vriendegroep distansieer.

5. Punte wat daal Akademiese prestasies of punte wat daal, kan die gevolg wees van kinders wat bang is om skool toe te gaan, juis omdat hulle afgeknou word. Die skool word ‘n omgewing van vrees en angstigheid, eerder as ‘n omgewing waar daar geleer en genot ervaar word.

Ander waarskuwingstekens van afknouery sluit die volgende in: •

Onverklaarbare beserings soos kneusplekke, snye en krapmerke;

2. Veranderinge in slaappatrone

•

Verlies aan eetlus of verandering in eetgewoontes;

Studies toon dat 36% van kinders wat slagoffers van afknouery is, slaapprobleme het. Kinders wat afgeknou word, kan soms parasomnia of nagmerries ervaar. Afknouery kan ook tot depressie by kinders lei, wat dan kan veroorsaak dat kinders sukkel om te slap of dat hulle te veel slaap.

•

Vernielde of verlore skoolboeke, klere, of elektroniese toestelle; of

•

Gereelde klagtes oor maagpyn, hoofpyn, naarheid of dat hy siek voel.

HUTTENPARK PRIMARY SCHOOL We celebrated Hutties history - Official Time Capsule Opening Huttenpark Primary School was established in 1973. Over the years our school has evolved and adapted, however our core values have always remained deeply rooted within the school. Our mission has and always will be excellence in education; while upholding and maintaining the interests, needs and safety of our learners, educators and parents of the school. Our vision will always be a child centred, value driven school and to our motto, Æquitate Ac Diligentia (With fair play and diligence)- we remain ever true.

On 15-10-1977 Mr. C.J. Vorster, Principal of Huttenpark at the time, placed lead tube capsules into the pillars of our school’s front gate, instructing the principal in 2022 to open up the said pillars and reveal the contents thereof on the 22-02-2022.

In 1977 after the capsules were concealed in the gate pillars, Mr. Vorster had left a bookmarker behind in the school diary as a reminder to the principal in the year 2022 of the capsules that were placed within the school’s gate pillars, that are to be opened on the 22-02-2022.

This bookmarker has been kept in the school’s diary ever since, as per Mr. Vorster’s request and will now be framed along with the contents of the capsules to be kept in the school’s archive as a reminder of this day.

Despite the global pandemic we have been faced with, we are grateful that we got to celebrate this day in our school’s history. Thank you to all the people who drove from far places to attend this function, some even flying in from other countries.

SAREL CILLIERS HIGH SCHOOL Sarel Boys Build Golden Bridge On Thursday last week the Grade 10, Grade 11 and Grade 12 bridge building teams left before the dawn broke for the long drive to Harrismith for the InterSchools Bridge Building Competition. After spending the day building their bridges the teams were ready in the evening to test their creations. Each bridge is awarded marks an aesthetic score for concept and design, is weighed and then weights are placed underneath the bridge in gradual increments until the bridge breaks. All of these factors are considered, with the weight bearing capacity of the bridge being the ultimate factor. The bridge built by the Grade 12s weighed 381 grammes but only broke under a weight of 61.5 kg, placing the team in first place for the fourth time with a total overall score of 56.28 points. The bridge that come in second supported a weight of 49,5kg, so it was a clear win for the Grade 12 team. The younger teams came 8th and 14th in the competition and obtained valuable experience. This is a remarkable achievement for our bridge builders. The winning team will compete in Pretoria in August at the international bridge building competition. Congratulations to Mr Slabbert and Mr du Plessis for this outstanding achievement with the learners. Well done to Faiyaz Ismail, Mongezi Langa and Simelokuhle Masondo on your win and we wish you all the best for the next bridge building competition.

Sarel Cilliers held its first Cross Country run last week with all the first team hockey, rugby and netball players taking part, as well as members of the Track Team. Well done to girls Akheela Griffiths, Khanyi Rokhotso and Tawana Mangena for 1st 2nd and 3rd place and to boys Leonard Kruger, Tristein Griffiths and Ndleenhle Shabalala for 1st, 2nd an 3rd place. It was a very enjoyable afternoon and the runners had excellent support from the spectators as they finished their run. This is a great training for fitness and there will definitely be future cross country runs.

The top five Grade 12 learners attended a career awareness programmes in Newcastle last week. Andre Nieman, Melusi Masondo, Shravan Mangaldeen, Siyabonga Khumalo and Mesuli Masondo represented the school and came away with valuable information regarding career choices and possible bursaries. It was agreed that it was a very informative day out and the learners came back with lots of new ideas regarding their future careers.

The girls First Team Hockey took part in the Spar Inter Schools Hockey Tournament in Newcastle on the weekend and played some excellent matches, Sarel Cilliers vs Pioneer 0-2, Sarel Cilliers vs Vryheid 0-1 Sarel Cilliers vs Dundee 0-0 and Sarel Cilliers vs Landbou 1-0.
