Jenny Jenny Morris – aka The Giggling Gourmet – is one of SA’s most-loved food personalities. She is a restaurateur (Yumcious, in Greenpoint), author, magazine writer, radio and TV presenter, celebrity chef, teacher, caterer and culinary tour guide who has had an ongoing love affair with food since she was a child, when she started making mouthwatering treats for school fundraisers. It is a love affair in the true sense of the word, one that employs all the senses.

Q: What do you mean by ‘eat with all your senses’?

A: Taste is the most obvious, as is aroma. Touch is also important. Feeling your food is important. Caress it, stroke it, know it intimately. You don’t want someone who eats a sosatie (kebab) with a knife and fork. And if I can get presidents and heads of state to eat with their hands, I can do it for anyone!

Q: How would you describe your work?

A: A labour of love, it doesn’t feel like work. I’m passionate about my work, so every day is a pleasure. I look forward to every day.

Health & Wellbeing Pollen not the biggest culprit behind SA’s hayfever woes It’s the height of the hayfever season. Hayfever is a condition that affects approximately 30% of South Africans, but pollen might not be the main culprit behind your nasal allergy misery.

For decades, hayfever sufferers have been led to believe that their condition is brought on by the amount of pollen in the air, but there are a host of other triggers too.

Pollen could in many cases elicit a severe allergic reaction, but sufferers will be surprised to learn that their nasal allergies might not have anything to do with pollen spores.

Hayfever symptoms, however, vary from person to person, but typically include an itchy, runny or blocked nose, watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, scratchy throat, postnasal drip and/or fatigue.

In general, there is a huge misconception that if someone sneezes a lot, they must have pollen-induced hayfever, when it could be due to many other allergens such as dust mites, pets or cockroaches. The most commonly inhaled allergens are: • different types of pollen (from trees, grass, weeds and flowers) • house dust mite • cat and dog dander • cockroaches • fungal spores Other triggers that could worsen symptoms include: • Strong perfumes and cold air can trigger nasal symptoms by non-allergic mechanisms

• Red wine – alcohol is a vasodilator, which widens your blood vessels and can cause a runny or stuffy nose, but wine in particular can exacerbate symptoms because it contains sulphites. Red wine is highest in sulphites and is fermented with grape skins, which contain a protein allergen.

• Veggie drawer – some fruits and vegetables contain proteins similar to those found in pollen, which can confuse your immune system.

• Swap contact lenses for glasses on high-pollen days since dust and pollen can stick to contact lenses, trapping allergens against your already itchy and irritated eyes.

• Swimming in chlorinated pools may irritate your airways, which could aggravate allergy symptoms.

• A humidifier is a reservoir for mould and bacteria, so clean it regularly to get the maximum relief from this device.

One can treat nasal allergies with antihistamines, which prevent histamine from attaching to your cells and causing symptoms.

A decongestant can also be used to reduce the swelling in the nasal passages, but the latter could cause a rebound effect if used for longer than the recommended three to five days, which could end up making you even more congested, so use only as directed.

One of my best Vietnamese experiences was the day we all piled into a long boat and went off down the soupy green Mekong River. We were on our way to the home of a local family for a New Year’s lunch. Our boatman at the back kept saying, “Okay ladies, little bit to the left, little bit to the right. Forwards! Backwards!” We had to keep the boat balanced because, trust me, the last thing we wanted was to capsize into that water!

The river is the lifeblood of the people who live along its banks. We saw an old lady plucking a chicken, washing and rinsing it; a bit further downstream was a man bathing his dog; then there were people doing the dishes and washing their clothes; and finally someone with his bum perched out over the water! The locals obviously have to boil every drop of that water and filter it for drinking.

We eventually made it to our destination, scrambling and digging our way up the bank to the home of our hosts, where we received a wonderful warm welcome from the family and their neighbours.

The table was beautifully set and I can’t even begin to describe the wonderful aromas – star anise, hints of ginger, garlic.

There were bowls brimming with enticing ingredients: flaked brisket, slow-braised with lots and lots of love; the fattest plump pink prawns; fresh mint, coriander, basil and what they call morning glory; water weed, also known as swamp cabbage, which gives lots of texture to the food; slivered cucumber and carrots; and a gorgeous dipping sauce.

The idea was that the man of the household would show us how to roll all of this into crystal spring rolls, after which we would make our own. It’s a fabulous idea for

entertaining at home, in any country.

As it was New Year, they offered us chrysanthemum wine, a bitter drink with no alcoholic kick. We reciprocated by offering our own New Year wine from Cape Town – one of the women in our group had a bottle of whisky in her bag. Needless to say, it had much more of an effect on them than the chrysanthemum wine had on us!

The head man was knocking it back and loving it. After quite a few shots, he took some of the spring roll wrappers, which he soaked in a little warm water, laid them out, and proceeded to fill them. While he was doing this, all the attention was on his hands and when I looked down – well! – I have never seen such filthy, grubby fingers or such black nails.

I was heaving deep inside and thinking, “Please don’t let him touch my food, I won’t be able to eat it.” Of course he rolled the most perfect, tight little spring roll and offered it to me. I couldn’t let him lose face and neither could I, so I said, “I am not worthy of this.” So he gave it to a friend sitting next to me – and she didn’t love me for that!

He continued to partake of the Cape Town New Year wine for the rest of the meal and when we eventually got down that hill, into the boat and back onto the river, we were telling one another which way to lean to balance the boat. We hadn’t realised that the spring roll man and our boatman were one and the same, and he was no longer in any condition to keep himself or us upright.

Spring Rolls can be filled with any type of filling that grabs your fancy – beef, pork, chicken, duck seafood or just all kinds of crunchy veggies.

Of Vietnamese row boats & spring rolls

Prawn Crystal Spring Rolls Serves 6

I learned to make these at the home of a tipsy boatman on the banks of the Mekong River. They are utterly delicious – fresh, crunchy and tasty – and are really easy to make, even though they take a little time to put together. Get someone to give you a hand soaking the rice paper. The trick is to soak one at a time, as they are very delicate, and by the time you have filled one, the next one will be ready to roll with a little help from a friend.

INGREDIENTS Dipping Sauce • ½ cup rice vinegar • ¼ cup boiling water • ½ cup castor sugar • 1 Tbs fish sauce • 2 small chillies, chopped • 1 Tbs chopped fresh coriander • 1 tsp sesame oil • 1Tbs finely-diced fresh cucumber

Spring Rolls • 24 prawns, deveined, lightly steamed and shelled • 1 cup finely shredded red cabbage • 1 large carrot, peeled and thinly julienned • 1 cup freshest bean sprouts • 1 medium English cucumber, julienned • 24 large fresh mint leaves • 24 fresh basil leaves • 12 coriander sprigs • 24 butter lettuce leaves • 12 dried rice paper rounds

METHOD

by Jenny Morris

• Make the dipping sauce first. Place the vinegar and water in a saucepan over medium heat and add the sugar, stirring to dissolve. Bring to the boil and let it bubble away for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the fish sauce and chillies. Stir in the chopped coriander, sesame oil and diced cucumber when cool and set aside.

• To make the spring rolls, place one rice paper at a time in a bowl of warm water to to soften it slightly. Remove to a flat surface and place a little red cabbage, carrot, a few bean sprouts and some cucumber in the centre of the rice paper and top with two fresh mint and basil leaves and a sprig of coriander. Now top with two prawns and a lettuce leaf. If the leaves are too big, trim them to size.

• Fold in the sides of the rice paper and gently roll up nice and tight. Do the same with the remaining rounds of rice paper. Pack onto a tray with enough space between them so they don’t stick together, and cover with a damp clean cloth.

• When you are ready to serve, slice the rolls in half diagonally, place on a plate and serve with dipping sauce I sometimes make these with shredded duck breast, rare thinly-sliced beef fillet, shredded chicken breasts, or even leave out the meat and go vegetarian. If you can lay your hands on some Vietnamese mint, please add a leaf to your roll.

SHADES OF SUMMER

Lots of teenage guys struggle with breakouts and problem skin. So what to do?

Keep your face clean. This means doing more than washing your face in the shower — in fact, never use a bar soap on your face. Make face cleansing a twice-daily routine with a face wash that helps to control oiliness and zaps those zits. You’ve got to get rid of all that grime and grease that creates those volcanoes!

Try these Vaseline Men Face Washes, R55.99 each. There’s Deep Cleanse Face Wash to lift off dead and dull skin that blocks your pores and Oil Control Face Wash to remove excess oiliness.

There’s more…..

• Keep your fingers off your face!

Don’t pick, pop or scratch those blemishes as you’ll just spread them even more.

• If you’re shaving, make sure the blades are clean and sharp.

• If you’re totally addicted to your phone, keep it away from your face as the contact causes bacteria and oils to build up and you get break outs. Use the speaker button or just text, dude.

Banish the blank: How to manage a mid-exam meltdown As Matrics head to exam halls to write one of the most important examinations they will ever write, some will find themselves in a terrifying situation where they hit that dreaded blank – an inability to recall information despite months of solid preparation and dedicated study.

Writing an exam can be a very stressful experience for many learners, even when they were diligent in their revision. Teachers and parents should, as their final act of support before pen is put to paper, empower learners to know what to do should they be confronted with a mental void when they receive their papers.

The exam environment can be unfamiliar and daunting. The environment is often a formal one, with rules about where to sit, what you can do, and what you can have with you. It is quite normal to experience exam nerves in an examination venue. However, sometimes students can become so overwhelmed that they cannot remember the material that they have spent many hours reviewing. This can lead them to feel even more panicked and stressed.

To avoid runaway nerves, learners should do the following in the minutes before the clock starts: Firstly, when you receive the paper, carefully read through all the instructions and every page of the paper. Then re-read all the instructions. This will give you a sense of what is expected of you. Remind yourself that even if you do forget some details, it is unlikely that you will completely forget everything.

Then, while reading through the paper, mark all the questions that you can answer. Start with these questions first.

That will give you some confidence and allow your mind some time to process, as well as to start accumulating some marks for the paper.

If, despite approaching a paper in this manner, a learner still feels overwhelmed, they can take the following steps in order to gain their equilibrium and confidence.

1. Don’t panic If you feel panicked, take long, slow and deep breaths. Doing this will calm you physically. Getting the physical panic under control is an important step in calming your mind.

2. Calm down Once you have calmed your body, it is time to calm your mind. Give yourself a mental pep-talk by repeating to yourself “I am calm. I have worked hard. I know my work.” You can also give yourself this pep talk while you are taking deep breaths.

3. Get back to business Once you are feeling a bit calmer, go back to the questions that you believed that you could not answer. Try to jot down anything and everything that you can remember about the material. You can always cross this out to indicate that it should not be marked.

4. Visualise If you cannot remember any of the material, try to use some memory tricks to assist you. For example, try to visualise sitting in class when the material was covered, or try to picture yourself in your study area

with your notes in front of you. Often thinking about the context of the material can help you to remember it.

5. Reconstruct your memories If you are able to jot down notes about the material, review these notes and see how the information that you have remembered relates to the question. Try to reformulate your notes into a response to the question that was given to you.

6. Remember the big picture Keep in mind that what you are usually marked on is your ability to answer the question. In the worst case scenario, where you cannot remember a single piece of information from your course material, simply try to answer the question from a common sense perspective.

You may find that you do actually know quite a bit about the question and may be awarded some marks for your general knowledge. Doing this may also prompt you to remember the course material.

Staying calm is your most important weapon in the exam room, as is keeping a sense of perspective at all times, and endeavouring only to do your best in whichever situation you find yourself.

You need to remember that you generally have more than one opportunity to perform in a subject. For example, you may write more than one paper for any one subject, and your year marks also count towards your final mark. If, in the worst case scenario, you do fail the exam papers, and your year marks, you may still have the opportunity to apply to re-write the subject.

Technology

Things to consider when buying your child a cellphone It’s not always an easy choice when considering which gifts to purchase for your child. However, with technology taking centre stage, you probably want to go this route when your shopping commences. Getting the latest affordable ‘tech savvy’ gift for your child will not only keep your child happy, but also ensure that you save.

It’s only a matter of time before your child’s best friend comes to school with a shiny new cellphone – and suddenly they arrive at home with a new addition to their Christmas or birthday wish list. They only care about its stylish look, but you are probably more concerned about battery strength, durability and price point. These are the most important things to consider when buying or upgrading your child’s phone.

What matters to them: the camera While #selfies and #squadgoals might not mean a lot to you, these are things that make your child tick. They’re confident and tenacious and capturing memories is a primary goal and they will stop at nothing to get their best shot. So, even if you’re not convinced at the importance of it, choosing a phone for your child that, first and foremost, has a good camera is important. Your best bet is to go with a phone that’s been designed with great photo features in mind.

What matters to them: style Kids want to look good, period. A phone that is easy on the eye will go a long way to making them excited about it. But that doesn’t mean you have to break the bank. Some entry-level phones are beautiful too.

What matters to them: durability We all know that kids aren’t exactly careful. Look away for ten seconds, and something is probably being dropped. When that’s a phone, it means a pricey and lengthy replacement process. Look for a phone that is hardy and durable with a non-slip grip cover that won’t smash the first time it hits the pavement.

What matters to you: the price Let’s be honest, your child is not going to hold on to a new phone for years and years. They’ll be begging for an upgrade within the next two years – and that’s if they manage not to lose or break it. When choosing a phone for your child, it’s best to go with one that’s good quality for an affordable price.

What matters to you both: battery life We bet that the main reason you’re considering a smartphone for your child is so you can stay in contact with them at all times – and know they are safe while they’re out making memories. This means that battery life is a huge deal for you; you don’t want their battery running out while they’re in the middle of a party. And neither do they. Pick a phone with a long-lasting battery life. The best way to find one of those is to research independent reviews online.

At the end of the day, being clued up on what matters to them is really going to help, as you will have a really hard time getting your child to buy into the idea of a phone if it’s not what they want. Sit down with them and go through these considerations to ensure you’ve thought of every important aspect before you hit the shops.

DIY Do It Yourself

Calling all MANCAVE dwellers: a challenge for you!

We all know that every man deserves – or at least fantasises about – having his very own mancave. You know, a space inside or outside of the house which belongs just to him (no girls allowed). Where he can put out his superhero posters and figurines of yesteryear, watch some uninterrupted football games while not sharing his mansized pizza with anyone, and even leave his socks in a little pile if he wants to.

Take up this challenge to all mancave owners, and power tool wielding men in general, to do something that will spruce up your space in no time. Enter the raw meranti wood wall complete with rack shelves: the perfect finishing touch to any mancave, with space-saving racks that can be put up against any wall with just a little bit of effort. The nifty shelves, made out of chunky slabs of wood and large industrial-looking hooks, will free up plenty of floor space for that games table. All you need to build your meranti wood wall and a couple of rack shelves is some enthusiasm, the correct tools and materials (as outlined below) and eight, easy steps.

Tools: cordless drill and screwdriver, drill bits, measuring tape, spirit level, ladder, jigsaw and paintbrush.

Materials (the amount of wood required will depend on the area of wall you want to clad.

Our area was 2,4 x 2,4m): Four 22mm x 69mm x 2,4m planks, six 12mm x 94mm x 2,4m planks, six 12mm x 94mm x 1,8m planks, 20 12nm x 144mm x 1,8m planks, four 32mm x 144mm x 1,8m planks, 4 x 30mm self-cutting screws, nailin screws and plugs and 10 rubber-coated hooks.

In 8 easy steps, your mancave will look even manlier than it did before, complete with wooden wall and handmade rack shelves. Now invite all your friends over for a braai, notice the disbelief on their faces when they admire your handiwork … and show them how it should be done!

1 Measure and mark where the vertical uprights will go on your wall.

Space them evenly to look neat.

2 Use the spirit level to also mark these measurements vertically.

3 Attach the 22mm x 69mm x 2,4m uprights to the wall on marks you’ve made in step 1 using nail-in screws and plugs.

4 On two of the 12mm x 94mm x 1,8m, and two of the 12mm x 144mm x 1,8m planks, mark lengths of 600mm and cut with a jigsaw.

5 Now start attaching the 12mm planks to the uprights with screws.

8 Steps

Randomly use the broad (144mm) and narrow (94mm) planks to create interest. Some of the 2,4m planks will stretch the whole way across, while other times you will add a 600mm plank to a 1,8m plank to make up the 2,4m.

6 Decide where you want to place the shelves and use a spirit level to mark where the hooks should go. Remember to do this only where the uprights are, for the hooks to be secure.

7 Drill pilot holes, and turn the hooks into place.

8 Cut the 32mm x 144mm x 1,8m planks into various lengths (600mm / 800mm / 900mm) and place on the hooks.

Top tip: Start cladding from the floor up and use offcut timber as spacers to ensure you space the rows of planks evenly.

A Gigantic Sea Tale

This term saw Morningside produce a production of gigantic proportions. A Gigantic Sea Tale was written by the principal, Des Friedrichs, and produced by a combination of teachers under the guidance of Mrs Brinda Naidoo, Mrs Eugiene Neville, Mrs Alana Holmes and Mr Rayner Singh.

The play ran for three nights, with the third night being a supper evening, much like the Barnyard Theatre at Gateway.

The story was based on a combination of Hollywood and animated movies and boasted characters and scenes from Titanic and Sponge Bob Squarepants. Songs from various entertainers were performed by the choir as well as individual pupils to guide the story along, and dancers performed throughout, adding a faerie feeling to many scenes.

As always, the children rose to the occasion and improved in leaps and bounds from night to night.

Congratulations to the cast and choir on an exceptional performance and to the backstage people who do the impossible with so little time between scenes. Thank you to the sound and lighting technicians, who spent hours perfecting the timing required for a successful production.

Last but definitely not least, we thank the costume team who used up large chunks of their holiday to create, paint and decorate the myriad of costumes required by a production of this nature.

Well done to the staff and learners of Morningside Primary on a fabulous three-night sensation!

WESTVILLE SENIOR PRIMARY SCHOOL (t) 031 266 5218 (e) sharon@wsps.co.za From the Principal’s desk Heritage Day Festival The Heritage Day weekend saw WSPS host the inaugural Heritage Day Festival on the Westville Astro. Sport has often shown itself to be a powerful tool in uniting our communities and nation and this weekend saw the highway community unite to celebrate our shared heritage. All the teams present were obviously striving to win, but it was in the camaraderie and common passion for the game that the ultimate winner was found. It turned out to be a memorable weekend for all involved and the spirited vocal support from the spectators, suggested it provided some exciting viewing.

Such a festival would not be possible without the incredibly hard work and commitment of many people. On behalf of all the players, parents, friends of the school and the community of Westville, I thank all involved in making this dream a reality. In particular, I extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr Shaun Sander and his committee for the passion and dedication they have shown in coordinating this weekend’s event.

End of term The end of term is always a week filled with excitement as the time of well earned relaxation approaches.

It has been another very busy term, filled with wonderful performances, committed efforts, friendship-building and a tangible sense of school spirit.

The numerous activities across all four pillars of the school (academics, culture, service and sport) have once again made us proud of our children, thankful of our dedicated staff, and appreciative of our supportive community. I thank all of those who have worked so hard to add to the wonderful history of the school and make this another successful term. We look forward to everyone returning refreshed and ready to make the final term of the year a truly successful end to the year.

Thank you for the SPCA donations On behalf of those who work at the SPCA (and from the furry residents), we thank all of you in the Westville community who have supported the SPCA charity drive this term.

DURBAN HIGH SCHOOL (t) 031 277 1500 (e) marketing@durbanhighschool.co.za DHS opens new Music Centre this October!

Durban High School has perpetuated a ‘Heritage of Excellence’ for 150 years, being Durban’s oldest school. The school has positioned itself to lead boys on their journey to become men and take their place in the world. Each boy is as unique as his journey, and DHS is proud to be part of the making of both history and the future. More than just a high school, DHS becomes a way of life for many of its learners.

The DHS Foundation was established to generate financial support for DHS through partnership with the school community of Old Boys, parents, staff and learners. The Foundation has provided opportunities to pledge support, whether it be financial or in the form of sharing expertise, in order to ensure that the strategic objectives of Durban High School are met now and in the future.

In 2007 DHS Old Boy Chris Seabrooke funded the building of Seabrooke’s Theatre, which has become a popular venue for many local productions in the city. Once again, Chris has demonstrated his dedicated support both for the boys and the ethos of the school by self-funding the brand new state-of-the-art Music Centre, which is due to open on 21 October 2016.

Despite a busy business career in which he has been on the boards of 25 JSE-listed companies, Chris has always been engaged with the arts and with music in particular. He co-produced over 20 stage musicals, mostly with Joan Brickhill and Louis Burke, including Meet Me in St Louis on Broadway, for which he received a Tony Award Nomination. He was also Chairman of the State Theatre of South Africa, Deputy Chairman of the inaugural Board of the National Arts Council, and Deputy Chairman of the founding Board of Business & Arts South Africa.

After a series of interviews, one of KwaZulu-Natal’s favourite songbirds, singer and songwriter Natalie Rungan, who has her Master’s degree in music, and four albums under belt, was appointed as the director of the Music Centre, much to the delight of all. When asked about her recent appointment as director, Natalie commented, “Music education has been sorely neglected in South African public schools for many years. It is very encouraging as an active performing artist to see such amazing support for the future of music education in schools by this world-class music facility. I am motivated and challenged to take on the task of inspiring young minds and developing future musicians in our country.”

The new Chris Seabrooke Music Centre will boast soundproof practice rooms, an auditorium that houses a Yamaha baby grand piano, and a project-recording studio. This facility will be a platform for Chris Seabrooke young musicians to grow their talent, with endless possibilities.

Leading Durban High School in 2017 In a special assembly in the DC Thompson School Hall at Durban High School on October 11, the school’s Prefect Body and RCL for 2017 was announced.

Described as an “emotional time” by current Head Prefect, Mvumeleni Mathenjwa, who have served and led the learners in the 150th celebrations, the event called for a great round of applause for the new leaders who pledged that with the learners’ help, they would lead “School” with integrity, respect and honour.

The role of the Prefect body and Representative Council of Learners (RCL) is to safeguard their fellow learners, uphold and maintain traditions amongst the learners of DHS, and act as role models and ambassadors.

Head Master Leon Erasmus addressed the learners and drew upon information presented in an article by Barbara White on Seven Qualities of a Good Leader. He quoted, “A good leader has an exemplary character. It is of utmost importance that a leader is trustworthy to lead others … A good leader is enthusiastic about their work or cause and also about their role as leader … A good leader is confident … A leader also needs to function in an orderly and purposeful manner in situations of uncertainty … Good leaders are tolerant of ambiguity and remain calm, composed and steadfast to the main purpose … A good leader is committed to excellence and I have no doubt that those who are selected today have these characteristics and will lead a successful year as done by the 2016 leaders and those before them.”

The much anticipated announcement of the morning was that of the Head Boy and Deputy Prefects for 2017: Head Boy of Durban High School for 2017 is Phendulani Buthelezi who will be accompanied by his deputies, Matthew Henley and Thomas Kempen.

Blackmore House Prefects were also announced: Sean Barnes, Luthando Buthelezi, Phendulani Buthelezi, Khamvelihle Fatyela, Onke Jiba, Luthando Jojo, Thomas Kempen, Tonderai Ndudzo, Sandile Nduzi and Sanele Nohamba.

Congratulations to all these young men who have taken their first step in becoming future leaders.

GLENWOOD HIGH SCHOOL (t) 031 205 5241 (e) erasmush@glenwoodhighschool.co.za SACS Water Polo tournament The Glenwood 1st water polo team participated in the SACS Water Polo tournament. The tournament is made up of two pools with ten schools in each pool and all matches are two eightminute running time chukkas.

Glenwood won their pool and was then victorious against a highly motivated Hilton team in the quarter-finals.

We were then paired against the powerful St Johns team in the semi-finals. This was going to be a tall order from our boys, but they were up to it. At full time the scores were tied, which saw the match go into extra time. The conditioning of our boys was what made the difference and we ran out worthy winners.

In the final we were up against Rondebosch from Cape Town. We played with incredible structure and patience. It was unfortunate that we conceded two penalties and we weren’t able to recover, which saw us finish in second place.

A tournament team was selected and D Cronje, G Stopford and S du Randt were selected into the team. D Cronje also received the trophy for the best defender of the tournament.

Results DHS won 3-1 Northwood won 5-1 Hilton won 4-1 (quarter-final) Parktown won 8-0 Grey PE won 4-2 St Johns won 8-7 (semi-final) Wynberg won 7-1 Bishops won 4-2 Rondebosch lost 2-4 (final) St Andrews drew 2-2 St Stithians lost 4-5

Grade 11 Toastmasters

On the evening of 11 October, the Grade 11 Toastmasters gathered together with their parents, guests and staff in the MT Pavilion for the annual graduation dinner.

Toastmasters is a youth leadership course that equips students with skills needed to run and chair meetings and develops their public speaking ability as they learn to present different types of speeches.

The evening started with the sergeant-at-arms, Edward Laubscher, calling the meeting to order. Under the guidance of the chairman for the night, Ridge Radebe, the Grade 11s presented prepared speeches, evaluations and impromptu speeches. Topics that were presented included bullying and teenage suicide, rape culture, expectations, and how to get a girlfriend.

The winners in each category were: Prepared Speeches: 1st – Matt Glasspool

2nd – Jayme Forget 3rd – Ethan Biggs 4th – Thando Ndlovu Evaluations 1st – Ridge Radebe 2nd – Chris Tite 3rd – Callum Earlam 4th – Johannes Steynberg Impromptu 1st – Brendan Schwulst 2nd – Christo Barnard 3rd – Caleb Alexander 4th – De Wet Truter The top two positions in each grade now go through to the semi-final contest to be held on 22 October at Danville Girls.

Target shooting SANSSU National Championship The 38th annual SANSSU National Championships were held in Hartebeespoort, encompassing all 9 provinces with 567 athletes from 33 schools across the country and 34 range masters.

The Nationals consisted of 2 x 3P disciplines as well as a 10m Olympic discipline.

The top 8 athletes in each category had to face an exhausting shootout to determine the overall winners of the competition.

The highlight of the event was the nail-biting final shootout where the top 8 overall Springers were chosen to participate in the gruelling event to determine the best of the best and the award of National colours.

Glenwood’s Jonathan Visser came second at this event with a mere 0.2 points difference between him and the winner. This was the second year consequentially in 16 year that GHS had a Springer in the top shooter shootout and made the top three overall shooters in the country.

Individual awards/medals • Jonathan Visser (Silver U21 Springer Top shootout/2nd place) • Thomas Rossouw (Bronze U16 Springer 10m Standing position) • Ruben Kitching (Gold U16 Sporter Overall 3P winner and Certificate U16 Sporter Postal league team inclusion) Team awards • U21 Springer Overall 3rd place winners: Daniel Visser, Jonathan Visser, Danel Capelo • U21/U16 combined Springer Overall 3rd place winners: Daniel Visser, Jonathan Visser, Danel Capelo, Thomas Rossouw, Kian Naidoom, Jason Chapman Ruben Kitching did not only triumph in his age group (U16 Sporter), but won the division, which earned him the status of National SANSSU Schools winner in the country for the Springer division U16 at National competition, making him the number 1 ranked National SANSSU Sporter in the country. Ruben was also chosen for the SANSSU National Postal league and was rewarded with a certificate and National SANSSU Association colours for winning his division.

NORTHLANDS GIRLS’ HIGH SCHOOL (t) 031 571 1100 (e) marketing@nghs.co.za Executive leaders

Northlands Girls’ High School is proud to announce our Executive leaders for 2016/2017. Congratulations!!! We are very proud!

Brittany Ottino (Deputy Head Girl Junior), Darshna Naidoo (Head Girl) and Olwethu Ndlovu (Deputy Head Girl Senior).

Speech and Drama Festival Northlands Girls’ High School is a proud member of The Speech and Drama Association and we have once again participated in their annual festival. The pupils participated in different categories and were scored by an external adjudicator. Iman Manjoo, Nadine Pillay, Zizipho Mtyobile, Nomfundo Mfeka and Geaneviv Pillay were chosen to participate in the annual Bruce Piper Award Monologue Competition.

The top 10 monologues from Durban schools will be performed for an audience and judges. The competition will be held on Saturday, 22 October at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.

We wish them the best of luck!

Iman Manjoo, Nadine Pillay, Mrs Louw, Zizipho Mtyobile, Mrs Barnard, Nomfundo Mfeka and Geaneviv Pillay.

It’s all discipline and stamina for Indian dance graduate For Mohini Kisten (Grade 10), dancing is not just a hobby, but a way of life. So much so that at just 16 years old, Mohini is able to teach the discipline after successfully passing 12 examinations set by her Phoenix-based dance studio, the Kumari Shiksha’s Dance Institute.

She plans to be a dance teacher after school and will, under the guidance of her dance teacher, be able to conduct lessons over weekends at the studio where she has danced since a little girl.

It is the discipline of classical Indian dance Mohini is drawn to.

“One needs great stamina for this type of dance,” she chuckles.

It can take an astounding three hours for Mohini to get ready for a show: to do her hair, put on make-up, adorn herself with exquisite jewellery and putting on her intricate outfits, all imported from India. But with the help of her mother, Shorlaine Dayaram, who introduced her to Indian dancing at a young age and has been her biggest supporter yet, the time speeds by.

Mohini enjoys this dance form, which she says is a statement about her cultural identity, and she would like to see Indian classical dance become more mainstream. “If classical Indian dance could feature on the next X-Factor, then that’ll be great!” she laughs.

Erryn makes KZN for soccer!

Congratulations to powerhouse Erryn-Dehn Walters on being selected for the KZN U19 soccer team. This is the third time Erryn has been selected to play soccer for the province. An all-rounded athlete, Erryn is also a keen rugby player, and has represented KZN for the U16 and U18 rugby teams.

Erryn’s role model is American soccer player, Olympic gold medallist and FIFA Women’s World Cup champion Alex Morgan.

She dreams of meeting her one day. A Matric pupil, Erryn hopes to attend an American university on a soccer scholarship next year, so she may be one step closer to meeting Ms Morgan than she thinks!

But before then, Erryn leaves for Johannesburg on 30 September for a soccer tour, and returns on 3 October. NGHS is proud of you, Erryn – well done on this great achievement!

S T N E EV * HUAWEI DURBAN DAY

Huawei Durban Day with East Coast Radio offers a fun and entertaining day out for the entire family, showcasing some of South Africa’s best musical performers. This year the event will rock with a hot line-up of eight of South Africa’s top artists as well as a featured Be the Band act.

Sunday, 23 October

From the creators of Shrek comes the most smart, funny, irreverent animated comedy of the year, DreamWorks' Trolls.

This holiday season, enter a colorful, wondrous world populated by hilariously unforgettable characters and discover the story of the overly optimistic Trolls, with a constant song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomach. Featuring original music from Justin Timberlake, and soon-to-be classic mash-ups of songs from other popular artists, the film stars the voice talents of Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Russell Brand, James Corden, Kunal Nayyar, Ron Funches, Icona Pop, Gwen Stefani, and many more. DreamWorks' Trolls is a fresh, broad comedy filled with music, heart and hair-raising adventures.
