what better way to welcome summer with a National Braai Day!

Marika Truter | 021 872 3880 marika@tiemedia.co.za

Nasionale Braaidag is die breinkind van Jan Scannell, beter bekend as Jan Braai. Hy het sy ‘kwartleeftydkrisis’ in 2005 bereik en gevoel dit was tyd om waarde toe te voeg tot die samelewing. Sy idee was om ‘n projek van stapel te stuur om nasiebou te verbeter – om al die lekker aspekte saam te voeg, en so het die idee van ‘n nasionale partytjiedag ontstaan.

Amerika het hulle Thanksgiving, Ierland hulle St Nadia Matthee Patrick’s Day, Nederland hulle Koninginnedag … en nou Junior Designer het ons ons Braaidag, want wat is meer eg-Suid-Afrikaans as ‘n braai?! Geniet ons onderhoud met Jan. Nadia started working Unfortunately, we are also in the season of allergies at AWSUM News late last and hay fever, so we brought you some information on year, after completing her how to avoid and manage these annoying attacks. graphic design course in We introduce AWSUM team member Nadia Stellenbosch.

Celebrity Interview

Jan

Braai

Jan Braai is ongetwyfeld Suid-Afrika se gunsteling braaimeester. AWSUM News het met hom gechat terwyl nie net ‘n kudde beeste nie, maar ook ‘n trop volstruise hom en sy Jan Braai-konvooi van 60 voertuie iewers buite Calitzdorp gejaag het.

V: Hoe het Jan Braai ontstaan?

A: Jan Braai homself is gebore toe ek die Twitter-handle @janbraai in 2009 geskep het en mense so na my begin verwys het. Gelukkig is my regte naam ook Jan, so ek het darem nie te veel van ‘n gesplete persoonlikheid nie!

V: Wat dink jy van vroue wat al hoe meer die braaimeesters word?

A: O, ek dink dis fantasties! Die dae van mans wat om die braai staan en mannepraatjies maak, terwyl die vroue aartappelslaai in die kombuis maak en fyntjies aan ‘n glasie rosé pik, is gelukkig vinnig aan die verbygaan. Vroue het ‘n besonderse aanvoeling vir braaivleis, en braai eintlik baie beter. (Ek koes!)

V: Wanneer is die kole net reg?

A: Sodra die vlamme klaar gebrand het. Baste met jou hand soveel sekondes so hoog oor die kole hou. Sodra daar net kole is, braai jy.

Page 2

AWSUM NEWS SEPTEMBER 2016

V: Wat braai jy?

A: Enigiets – skape, beeste, hoenders, visse – you name it.

V: Wat drink jy saam met braaivleis?

A: ‘n Baie beskaafde gin&tonic (wat ook goed is teen malariamuskiete, natuurlik) terwyl ek braai, wyn saam met die ete, en daarna ‘n brandewyntjie, of selfs ‘n whiskeytjie.

V: Wat geniet jy vir nagereg?

A: Daai stukkies braai na die braai, wanneer ons nog ‘n bietjie hout pak vir atmosfeer, en dan sommer weer ietsie op die kole gooi.

V: Wat is jou missie?

A: Om 50 miljoen Suid-Afrikaners almal op een dag te laat braai! Drie braaiboeke en verskeie TV-uitsendings later, is dit aan die gebeur! Van die boeke is ook in Europese lande beskikbaar, so die boodskap word ver en wyd versprei!

V: Wat is jou boodskap vir al die ywerige braaiers?

A: Keep it classy, South Africa!

Health & Wellbeing Spring Allergies Spring means gardens and parks are back to being prettier than ever. It’s also the season for stuffy noses and sneezing, no thanks to allergies.

But why do people get these spring allergies in the first place? During spring, flowers bloom, and along with it the pollens are released into the air. These tiny specks of nature travel and hopefully pollinate other trees and flowers for their continued existence.

However, when these pollens end up in your nostrils and accidentally inhale them, they can irritate the immune system, which sees them as foreign invaders. The body’s immunity then releases antibodies and a chemical known as histamine.

For non-allergic people, these histamines are kept at a tolerable level. However, for those who are prone to allergies, the immune system goes into an overdrive and releases loads of histamine that, in turn, causes the common signs and symptoms of allergies.

Pollens, however, are not the only culprits.

During spring, the environment can be humid, making the surroundings including your home a perfect breeding ground for molds, which can cause the same reaction to your immune system as pollens.

“But why do people get these spring allergies in the first place?”

Prevent Those Pesky Allergies You can’t shelter yourself completely from these spring allergens, but there are many steps you can take to reduce your exposure and hopefully prevent those allergies.

• First, get a clear diagnosis of your allergies. Typically, people have allergies to three or four species of trees and plants. So even if pollen counts are high, it doesn’t mean your allergies are worse. That’s why diagnosis is such an important part of allergy care.

• Pay more attention to the environment too. Certain pollens move at different times of the day, and usually, during spring, these pollens come from trees. They also tend to be less active when it’s raining, but their number increases after. Expect exposure to be very high during mornings and windy days, so you might want to avoid outdoor activities at these times.

• You should also be more proactive by making allergy medications your best friend. Drugs such as antihistamines and decongestants can protect you from allergies or at least reduce the symptoms. In fact, begin taking them early or before symptoms appear. With a week or two lead time, you’ll feel better all season. Although some of them require prescription, most of them are available over the counter, so having them is easy.

• Don’t forget to keep your indoor air clean. Change your dirty filters, dehumidify if necessary and close windows and doors if presence of pollen in the area is high. http://www.techtimes.com/articles/143785/20160325/spring-allergies-signs-symptoms-and-treatment.htm

You’ve Got the Power Challenge is Still On! Take on the challenge and win great prizes!

Now in its second month, the Bestmed ‘You’ve got the Power Challenge’ is getting more exciting.

Schools have more time to work on their creative music videos showcasing healthy living.

Sasja la Grange, Marketing and Communications Manager at Bestmed says, “With Summer nearly here, it’s a great time to come up with vibrant and creative ideas for keeping healthy at school and at home. We are pleased with the number of entries we have received to date, and wish to afford everyone an opportunity to become a part of this exciting programme.”

The challenge requires students and their families to showcase the benefits of healthy living by creating unique, cool and fun music videos and stand a chance to win great prizes.

“So far we have received great videos and it is evident that participants are having fun with the challenge. This is going to be a tight competition,”

adds la Grange.

Over and above the cash prizes for the winners and the runners-up and other spot prizes, the overall winning school will be treated to A MUSIC CONCERT featuring Richard Stirton, Gavin Edwards, Almur Marais and Jeremy Olivier from The Voice SA. In addition, R10 000 cash will be awarded to the best Individual and family entry.

There is now a school entry option, where the winning school video will be crowned based on the following criteria:

· · · ·

Performance ability (25%) Entertainment value (25%) Effort (25%) Originality (25%)

“I would like to encourage more students and their families to take on this fun challenge, demonstrate their ways to keep healthy and win awesome prizes,” concludes la Grange.

You’ve Got the Power Challenge To become part of the challenge, visit www.ygtp.co.za for more information. Each school is required to create a music video based on Bestmed’s song and demonstrate how healthy living can make for a better life within the school and family context. Teachers and families can also participate in the video as the aim is for the whole school to have fun.

Once the video is completed, it can be uploaded on the site before the competition closes on 30 September 2016. Bestmed will announce the winners on 24 October 2016.

The final countdown The heat is officially on for Matrics, with just over a month before starting their final exams. Many of them will be entering this period weighed down with a sense of dread, especially if the first half of the year proved less than satisfactory on the academic front.

But if these learners put shoulder to the wheel right now, and apply military precision in scheduling their remaining time, they can expect a major improvement in results.

This is the time to take stock of where they are and how they can wring every last ounce of value from the time they have left, with the following approach: 1. Source or create a wall or desk calendar with enough space to write a to-do list for each day of the week. Enter the exam dates for the final matric exams. The dates for the National Senior Certificate final exams can be found on the websites of the Department of Basic Education (public schools) and Independent Examination Board (private schools). Also diarise any other important dates or occasions.

2. Rate your subjects from the most difficult to the easiest. You should spend more time on the subjects that you find difficult to master. Plan your studying according to the following criteria: • What subject do you find the most challenging?

• When are the exams for that subject being written?

• How much content needs to be studied for the subject?

Count the days left until the final exams for those subjects.

If you have six subjects in which you will be writing exams and eight weeks until the final exams, it leaves one week of studying for each subject with two more weeks allocated to your weakest subjects. That is not a lot of time, so you should get into the routine of studying every day for the next few weeks. Be strict with yourself, and turn discipline into a habit.

3. Break each subject’s content down into logical and manageable sections. A three-hour study session should be enough to cover each section of content.

4. Download past exam papers from the Department of Basic Education and the IEB websites. These are excellent resources and give you a good feel for what you can expect in your exams. Supplementary study guides can also be purchased as an additional study aid. Schedule these mock papers on your study roster.

5. After prelims, the study roster should be re-assessed based on insights into which subjects require more attention, and how much time remains before the finals.

Matrics’ holistic planning for the next few weeks should also take into account the following:

Address: Shop 72, Cecilia Str, Paarl Mall, Paarl 7620 (Next to Mr Price)

Tel: 021 863 2634 Cell: 078 327 1967

1. Researching and applying to higher education institutions where a learner has not yet been accepted into a qualification of choice, or planning for any other options post-Matric. But do not spend more than an hour a day on this, as it will eat into your studying time. Remember that higher education institutions generally close applications around September.

2. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which means getting enough sleep, nutrition and exercise, and especially not over-indulging at the Matric farewell. Additionally, if you structure your time well, you won’t need to reach for stimulants in despair. They often contain excessively high levels of caffeine, gingko biloba and ginseng, which will keep you awake and alert but will make it difficult to focus.

Culture Vultures Our boys were able to boast with their works of art, projects and models at our annual Expo and Culture evening. There are definitely a number of true artists and future engineers in our school. The boys presented a cultural evening that surpassed the last one and they should feel proud of their different abilities.

Some of our boys played piano and guitar pieces which had their audience in awe, while others recited their Eisteddfod poems, choral verses, dialogues and prose. The ukulele items and drumming sessions had the spectators well amused, while the grade Rs sang the school song with pride.

The evening ended with a fantastic speech from an old scholar, Darren Minnies, who was our Head Boy in 2011. Thank you to all who were involved: parents, for supporting your sons and their talents; teachers, for providing the stage for these talents to develop, and boys for your hard work, preparation and dedication.

COURTRAI PRIMARY SCHOOL

Vir die afgelope paar maande het almal in Laerskool Courtrai plastiekdoppies ingesamel. Ons het omtrent 1.2 ton ingesamel en vir die BD’s met hul sterte tussen hul bene terug gestuur huis toe.

Die Graad 7A1-klas het ‘n ooreenkoms met mnr. Van den Berg aangegaan: Indien ons meer doppies as Bredasdorp insamel, sal hy sy hare vir ‘n hele week lank rooi, wit en blou kleur.

Ons en die BD’s het die 1.5 ton doppies aan ‘Operation Smile’ gestuur, wat hulle weer verkoop om vir kinders met misvormde verhemeltes te help om normale lewens te ly.

Ons vra vriendelik dat almal ons sal help om nog doppies en broodplaatjies in te samel sodat ons mense se lewens kan verander en ‘n ‘smile’ op hulle gesigte te sit.

Cameryn Dobie (Grade 7) got invited by the American Academy of Dance as one of 29 international dancers to participate in two performances in New York.

Bewusmaking van ons renosters!

Hugo Rust se personeel en leerders is baie opgewonde oor hulle projek om die gemeenskap bewus te maak van die bewaring van renosters. Daar is drie renosters: Ruffy (rooi), Juba (groen) en Sweet Pea (pink), wat oor die volgende drie weke gaan toer op verskillende interessante plekke saam met die kinders en personeel. Kreatiewe foto’s word geneem en oral waar hulle gaan, word die mense vertel hoe belangrik dit is om die renoster te bewaar. Die skool gaan ‘n muntlegging hou op Renosterdag, 22 September om geld in te samel vir die ondersteuning van die bewusmakingsprojek. Hou ons dorp dop vir Hugo Rust se renosters, neem ‘n foto saam met een van hulle en plaas dit op ons Facebookblad of Instagram Ishugorust.

Carry On 4 Babies and Paarl Boys’ High School

Salmaan Moerat (captain of PBH first rugby and SA Schools teams) delivered bags of goods to Valcare Trust. With him are Nabeelah Allie, Natalie Jacobs and Jessica Mose (students of Valcare Trust).

Perdry

We are proud to announce that Paarl Boys’ High has joined forces with Carry On 4 Babies to become the first school in South Africa to represent this global volunteer initiative as an ambassador.

Carry On 4 Babies is not a charity but an initiative supported by a network of volunteers across the world who are committed to improving the lives of babies and children in Africa by providing them with unused clothes and shoes.

In our role as ambassador, the school will also be acting as a drop-off point for unused baby and children’s clothing, shoes and sport equipment. These items then get delivered to Valcare Trust.

As part of the launch of this initiative within the school and the wider Paarl community, drop-off boxes for unused/ unwanted baby and children’s clothing will be placed at the Boys’ High office.

We have already received donations from all over the world and as far as England from Old Boys and supporters, and we invite everyone to get involved and support this worthy initiative.

Schalk van der Merwe het in Augustus aan die African Championship (waarvoor 150 ruiters ingeskryf het) van 122km in die Namibwoestyn by Walvisbaai deelgeneem. Schalk se perd het op ongeveer die 100km-merk ’n skoen verloor, wat hom 15 minute geneem het om weer op te sit. Ongeag hierdie oponthoud het hy steeds ’n 19de plek behaal in ’n tyd van 7 uur 54 minute.

Paarl Vallei Eisteddfod-prestasies Hoër Jongenskool Paarl het weer ‘n hele paar pryswenners opgelewer by die Paarl Vallei Eisteddfod.

• Jan-Meyer Verhoef behaal die hoogste totale punt: senior seun vir senior klavier.

• Rinus Fleischmann en Lodric Roux wen die prys vir die beste saksofoonduet. Rinus wen ook die 17-jarige seuns sangkategorie.

• HJS Blaasensemble word aangewys as die beste hoërskoolorkes én hulle word genooi om by die galaaand op te tree.

• Cantare, HJS se skoolkoor, word aangewys as die beste hoërskoolkoor. Cantare het ook onlangs die seunskategorie: Afrikaanse hoërskoolkore by die ATKV Applouskompetisie in Stellenbosch gewen.
