I trust that you have had a wonderful break, and that everyone in your family is ready for what promises to be a great year. We’ve filled our first 2015 edition of AWSUM with many new gems, just for you.

With our new redesign, editorial and school content will now be found on the same pages (with the former at the top and the latter at the bottom). We are also introducing a classifieds section where you can advertise your products and services. Do you give music lessons or work as a personal trainer? Perhaps you’re looking for someone to join your lift club or buy your car. Our classifieds are for you, and they’re a steal at R150 per month.

In another move to promote our community involvement, we’re proud to introduce our AWSUM notice board. Here your school or organisation can list social events, markets, concerts and anything our readers need to know about. You will also be able to put up a poster or sponsor the board. If this sounds like your kind of advertising platform, please give our sales

HELP OUT

THE SUN WILL COME OUT TOMORROW!

W

e’ve all only recently recovered from a very busy festive season where some of us folks probably gave to the needy, hungry or homeless. However, it is important to remember that those who suffer don’t only need our help over the festive season, but throughout the year. Start 2015 the right way and lend a hand (or paw) to help the SOS Children’s villages or NSPCA! We’ve been inspired by the classic movie remake of Annie (to be released nationally in theatres on 30 January 2015). Annie is a young, happy foster kid who is also tough enough to make her way on the streets of New York. She never goes anywhere without her trusty sidekick, her beloved dog Sandy.

We have Annie movie merchandise hampers (each consisting of an Annie lunchbox, pen and T-shirt) to give away to SEVEN lucky AWSUM readers.

To enter simply send us an email with your name, age, contact details and postal address, telling us what you are going to do to help friends like Annie and Sandy. Send your email to tenille@tiemedia.co.za and mark the subject line “Help with Annie”. Entries close Friday 13 February 2015.

WIN!

ANNIE AND SANDY WILL BE COMING TO A CINEMA NEAR YOU ON 30 JANUARY 2015

MATHBLOX

This summer kids like Annie and animals like Sandy need your help.

The SOS Children’s Villages Association of South Africa work for children who are orphaned or abandoned or whose families are unable to care for them. They give these children the opportunity to build lasting relationships within a family. With villages in Ennerdale, Mamelodi, Port Elizabeth, Cape Town, Pietermaritzburg, Mthatha, Nelspruit and Rustenburg, these guys need our help. Please visit their website to see how you can aid a child in need.

For more information on the SOS Children’s Villages Association of South Africa please visit http:// sosvillages.org.za.

Similarly, the National Council of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (NSPCA) takes animal welfare very seriously and its staff is committed to ensuring that animal owners recognise their responsibility to all animals in their possession.

The NSPCA relies on help from their communities.

There are 89 individual NSPCAs throughout South Africa who rescue, take in and care for homeless, abandoned and neglected animals every day.

You can help by donating pet food, blankets or toys and by joining the #LendAPaw campaign. You’ll find more details at www.annie-movie.co.za.

For more information on the NSPCA please visit www.nspca.co.za.

Baby Spinach and Strawberry Salad

Compiled by Jenny Morris

Losing weight after the holidays always proves a huge challenge for most of us. Use these fitness apps to help shed the holiday flab and stick to your weight-loss goals …

YOU’LL NEED • 100 g baby spinach washed and drained • 100 g strawberries trimmed and quartered • ½ cucumber peeled deseeded and sliced • 1 tbsp poppy seeds • Salt and pepper to taste • Half a cup alfalfa sprouts rinsed

in a bowl.

Blend dressing till smooth, drizzle over the salad, garnish with alfalfa sprouts.

SERVES 4

Strawberries are a spring gem that bear the promise of bountiful summer fruits that will soon be available. Their keen fruitiness makes them a flavorsome salad ingredient, too.

What’s more they can be blended with the tiniest seasoning to make an instant and vibrantly colourful dressing.

I like to select the firmest strawberries in the punnet for the salad and then use any riper strawberries to go into the blender.

Strawberries love black pepper so be generous with the grinder in your hand.

GR 1’S SE EERSTE DAG

Ons nuwe graad 1’s het met groot opgewondenheid hulle eerste dag by Hoër Meisieskool Paarl oorleef.

GIRLS’ HIGH CELEBRATES HER BIRTHDAY!

On Friday 23 January 2015, the teachers and learners of Paarl Girls’ High celebrated our 139th birthday. Everybody celebrated under the beautiful oak trees. Following the tradition, the Matric learners threw sweets and treats from the balcony.

Hannah Holm (links) se glimlag is sekerlik die breedste in die hele Paarl omdat sy nou in graad 1 is. Janri Dixon (regs) het saam met Hannah haar eerste dag in gr. 1 geniet.

VLOTTEDAG

BEAUTY PAGEANT

Neena Bredeveldt (Gr 6) took part in the National Mzanzi Beauty Pageant during the first week of the December holidays last year. They had to design an outfit made from recycled material and then model it. After this they had to show off their talents and Neena proved to be a real disco dancer! They also visited Butterfly World and made many new friends from all over South Africa. Neena achieved second place over all, with only 1 point difference between her and the girl who came first. Congratulations!

The most effective weapon against cancer is knowledge.

If you consider that one in four individuals may be affected by the disease during their lifetime, you will realise how powerful knowledge is in terms of risk reduction and early detection.

screening measures before the symptoms become serious.

Cancer diagnosis begins with a thorough physical exam and a complete medical history.

Laboratory studies of blood, urine, and stool can detect abnormalities that may indicate cancer.

HOW CANCER IS DIAGNOSED The earlier cancer is diagnosed and treated, the better the chance of it being cured.

Some types of cancer – such as those of the skin, breast, mouth, testicles, prostate, and rectum – may be detected by routine self-exam or other

ADOPT A BALANCED LIFESTYLE It is estimated that 10% of cancers diagnosed are as a result of hereditary factors and 15% are caused by carcinogens in the environment. A further 20% can be attributed to viral infections (Hepatitis B & C /

HPV) & 10% can be due to other factors (mainly chronic inflammation).

POOR LIFESTYLE CHOICES INCREASE CANCER RISK The percentage of cancer cases caused by unhealthy lifestyle factors is considerable and unnecessary: • 15% being overweight and not getting enough exercise • 5% consuming too much alcohol • 20 – 25% using tobacco or tobacco products • Experts estimate that cancer risk can be reduced by 30% if these

BOODSKAP VAN DIE HOOF, MNR. L.C. MOUTON Laerskool WA Joubert sien uit na ’n baie opwindende jaar. Leerders en opvoeders is gereed om hierdie jaar sommer baie nuwe inisiatiewe met ywer aan te pak. Die skool spog vanjaar (vir die eerste keer in ’n lang tyd) met twee klasse per graad van gr. R tot gr. 4.

VOORSKOOL EN GR. 1 WERK VAN DAG EEN

Welkom aan al ons nuwe maatjies by die skool. Daar is sommer van dag een af aan die werk gespring en almal was baie opgewonde oor wat vir hulle in die groot skool en die jaar voorlê. Om na stories te luister wat juf. Carina lees en om in die sandput te speel, is altyd vir die kleintjies lekker.

NUWE OPVOEDERS

Ons verwelkom graag ons twee nuwe opvoeders by die WAJ-familie. Albei is baie veelsydig en gaan ook op buitemuurse gebied ’n groot verskil maak.

Ons is ook bly om twee nuwe opvoeders te verwelkom. Mnr. Nicky Lock (gr. 4) en me. Elzanne Visser (gr. 3) het nuut by ons aangesluit. Ons wens hulle alle sterkte toe. Hoogtepunte wat hierdie jaar beplan word is: ’n Konsert, Wintersportdag, Gholfdag, ’n Karnaval met ’n verskil en ’n Vroue-oggend. Daar sal ook begin beplan word vir die skool se eeufeesvieringe wat in 2019 sal plaasvind. Oudleerders word aangemoedig om die skool te kontak en hul kontakbesonderhede vir ons deur te gee. Ons wil reeds begin om ’n databasis op te bou. Baie voorspoed vir al ons medePaarliete.

THREE TROPHIES

A proud Mr Von Willingh with the trophy for the best school promoting sport in the community. Kyle Green was best achiever athlete of the year and Mr. Fortuin, sport teacher of the year. WELL DONE, BOYS!

HOOFLEERDERS

Ons hoofleerders vir 2015 is Senor Green (onderhoofseun), Le-Thandi Rens (onderhoofdogter), Jamie-Lee Paulse (hoofdogter) en Cuelin Mathee (hoofseun).

HOOFLEERDERS

Dis lekker om ’n Nossie te is ... te is (met apologie aan Fanie Olivier se Last Grave at Dimbaza).

Hierdie trotse nuwe graad 8’s het gewys hoe bly hulle is om Nossie-leerders te wees.

BAIE GELUK, JULLE

Dinsdag 6 Januarie …’n blye dag vir dié drie leerders. Hulle het elk ’n gemiddelde A in die Nasionale Senior Sertifikaateksamen behaal. Sean Manas het hom onderskei deur A’s in al sewe vakke te kry. Curtley Davids was die eerste leerder wat een van die TERRIBLE TWINS (Wiskunde en Skeinat) bloedneus geslaan het. Hy het 96% in Wiskunde en 96% in Rekeningkunde gekry. Hy en Sharfa Abrahams het albei VYF A’s gekry.

DUBBEL SOET OF DUBBEL STOUT?

“Was jy nie nou net in my klas nie.” Nee, juffrou.” Jok jy?” Toe maar, juffrou of Meneer, jy is darem nog nie so oud nie. Jy sien net dubbel 4 X 2 = 8. Ons tweelinge wat glo alles behalwe ’n pak slae deel.

WP-O.60-KAMPIOEN

Mnr. Klaasen kan nie net somme maak nie: hy kan ook ’n tennisbal wys wie’s baas. Dis seker daarom dat hy die kampioen geword.

WELKOM, MNR. JEFTHAS

Mnr. Jefthas is die nuutste toevoeging tot die NOS-familie. Hy is verantwoordelik vir Ekonomie vir graad 10 – 12.

HÖERSKOOL LABORI (t) 021 872 8293 (e) admin@hslabori.co.za

LABORI-LEERDER STYG UIT BO “BEPERKING” Nic-Strauss le Roux is op 3½-jarige ouderdom gediagnoseer as akademies onopvoedbaar. Dit was vir sy ouers ’n geweldige skok en traumatiese ervaring – veral die destydse diagnose dat hul pragtige donkerkopseuntjie op skool nooit sou kon vorder nie!

Mnr. en mev. Herman le Roux van Wellington het geweier om hierdie verdoemende bevinding te aanvaar. In die geloof skryf hulle toe hul 4-jarige seuntjie gedurende 1999 in by die Paarlskool vir Serebraal- en Spesifieke Leergestremdes in Brackenfell.

Met absolute toewyding, deursettingsvermoë en harde werk van Nic-Strauss se kant, ondersteun deur twee pragtige, positiewe en betrokke ouers, ontwikkel hierdie spesiale seun binne Paarlskool se gespesialiseerde terrapeutiese en onderrigmilieu in so ’n mate dat daar besluit word om hierdie merkwaardige leerder die geleentheid te bied om by hoofstroomonderwys te kan inskakel.

En dit was dan ook die grootste toets vir Nic-

Strauss, tot in daardie stadium van sy jong lewe.

Het hy werklik bo die destydse verdoemende diagnose uitgestyg? Is die Onderwysowerhede se beleid van inklusiwiteit, soos vervat in Witskrif 6, realisties en haalbaar? Kan ’n leerder van ’n spesiale skool suksesvol oorgeplaas word na ’n hoofstroomskool?

Die antwoorde op al dié vrae is ’n onteenseglike JA! Nadat sy ouers die nodige navorsing gedoen het, is besluit om hom by die Hoërskool Labori in die Paarl in te skryf. Dié gewoon akademiese skool spesialiseer benewens die akademiese baan ook in Tegniese en Rekenaarstudierigtings.

En omdat dit ’n kleiner skool is, is daar ook meer persoonlike kontak tussen die opvoeders en leerders.

Nic-Strauss het homself ten volle vir sy nuwe skool gegee – nie net akademies nie. Hy speel rugby en krieket, dien in sy skool se Sub-VRL en onderskei hom as knap sportanalis en -statistikus. En dan natuurlik akademies – hy slaag graad 12 met ’n gemiddelde persentasie van net onder die 70% en verwerf

universiteitsvrystelling.

Ons eer hierdie jong man se baie spesiale akademiese prestasie!

Nic-Strauss le Roux het bewys dat drome en ideale waar gemaak word deur harde werk, deursettingsvermoë, passie, deur jouself te gee en met dankbaarheid en nederigheid jou oë altyd op jou Skepper te fokus.

Hy het reeds ingeskryf in ’n sportwetenskaplike studierigting – ’n rigting waarin Nic-Strauss nog gaan uitstyg!

GRAAD 8-VERWELKOMING

leerders is reeds besig met ’n verwelkomingsprogram. Hulle moes reeds die eerste dag aan Boeresport deelneem. Hulle het ook ’n graad 8-kamp bygewoon.

MATRIEKUITSLAE 2014

Edgar Ramsauer verwelkom Jaco Otto by Boland Landbouskool.

Baie geluk aan die matrieks van 2014 wat almal geslaag het, met ook geen vakdruipelinge nie. Sewe van ons leerders het ʼn gemiddelde A-simbool behaal! Sestig van ons 68 leerlinge het toelating tot ʼn B-graad en die ander 8 leerders, dus 12%, het toelating tot ʼn diploma-kursus aan ʼn tersiêre inrigting verwerf – ons is trots op die feit dat al ons leerlinge ʼn tersiêre kwalifikasie kan behaal. Baie sterkte aan ons huidige matriekklas. Ons sien uit daarna om te sien waartoe julle in 2015 in staat is!

Ons is baie trots op ons eerste Protea-krieketspeler, Stiaan van Zyl. Stiaan het gedurende die Windies se toer in Suid-Afrika sy toetsdebuut vir die Proteas gemaak. In sy eerste toets teen WesIndie op Centurion in Pretoria het hy 101 lopies nie uit nie in sy eerste kolfbeurt aangeteken.

Dit is ’n ongelooflike prestasie vir enige kolwer

MATRIEKUITSLAE 2014

Dit is met groot dankbaarheid teenoor ons hemelse Vader wat ons terugkyk op die uitslae van 2014. Baie dankie aan die leerders, onderwysers en ouers wat meegewerk het aan hierdie uitslae.

KRIEKET

Ons is baie trots op ons eerste krieketspan se kaptein, Luke Philander. Luke het die afgelope vakansie deelgeneem aan die Coca Cola-o.18-krieketweek as lid van die Bolandspan. Tydens hierdie toernooi was Luke een van die span se groot uitblinkers.

Hy het uitstekend geboul in elke wedstryd en het ook waardevolle bydraes met die kolf gelewer. Na afloop van hierdie toernooi is Luke gekies vir die Cobras -o.18-krieketspan wat gedurende Januarie in Stellenbosch aan die Nasionale o.18week deelgeneem het. Hier het Luke weer eens uitstekend presteer. Hy het in sy 5 wedstryde 7 paaltjies geneem vir slegs 126 lopies. Hy het ook ’n waardevolle 22 lopies nie uit nie aangeteken in die Cobras se oorwinning oor die Knights.

Ons is werklik trots op Luke en ons glo dat ’n blink toekoms op hom wag. Hy is nou eers in graad 12 en hy gaan heel waarskynlik later in die jaar weer vir die Boland o.18- en Cobras-o.18 spanne speel.

om ’n toetshonderdtal aan te teken en dit in sy debuuttoets. Hy word slegs die 5de Suid-Afrikaner in die geskiedenis wat hierdie prestasie behaal. Hy het ook goed vertoon in die twee toetse daarna in Port Elizabeth en Kaapstad. Ons is werklik trots op Stiaan en ons wens hom ’n lang toetsloopbaan vol hoogtepunte toe.
