Summer is in full swing, and who better to grace our cover than the lovely Minki van der Westhuizen, in soft, cool summer colours! Read about Minki, motherhood and Boer Soek ‘n Vrou below. We had such a great response to our Jan Braai feature a few months ago, that we thought we should bring you some more braai action. Indulge around the braaivleis fire with some gourmet recipes from More Braai, the Beloved Country – and also win one of three copies we have to give away to our readers, to make braaiing this summer better than ever. You also need to know all about the latest beach fashions, and fashion editor Pepe Sofianos lets you in on all the latest and hottest – or is that the coolest? – looks for the beach and lounging around the pool this summer.

AWSUMCelebrity Interview
Minki van der Westhuizen Minki van der Westhuizen is one of South Africa’s most recognisable faces. As a top model, she has graced countless magazine covers. Recently, she has become more known as a popular television presenter. We caught up with her to chat about Boer Soek ‘n Vrou, motherhood, and life back in South Africa. Q: You are known worldwide as a top model. How did it happen that you became a television presenter, first for the magazine show Pasella and now for the popular reality series Boer Soek ‘n Vrou? A: Pasella’s producer asked me back in 2007 if I would be interested in presenting on TV. I didn’t even think twice! I’ve always wanted to work in the television industry, and when the opportunity came to be the host on the new season of Boer Soek ‘n Vrou, I was over the moon. Q: What do enjoy most about Boer Soek ‘n Vrou? Which ‘boer’ would you say is AWSUM? A: Seeing all the beautiful parts of the country – I have just realised again how stunning and diverse our country is! The ‘boere’ are all AWSUM!! Q Another Boer Soek ‘n Vrou question … the question on everyone’s lips is whether any of the ‘boere’ tried to impress you rather than the women on the farm? A Nooooo, I never got that impression! They know I am not available. They are all very proud of their farms and I have enjoyed being part of their farming for a day.

AWSUM NEWS NOVEMBER 2016
Q: What is your advice for first dates? Do first impressions count? A: First impressions are very important – maybe you never see the person again, and that will be the impression the person has of you. Just be yourself – then you can never go wrong. Q: You and your young family returned at the end of last year to South Africa after almost six years in London. What was life like there? What did you miss about South Africa? How have you adapted back in South Africa? A: We were very happy in London, and England will always be special for us. But nothing can trump our happiness to be back in South Africa! We are all thriving and I think the girls have all but forgotten the UK. We adapted very easily, as if we have never been away. I have missed my parents a lot, as well as the climate and ‘lekker’ culture. Also, our beautiful nature and mountains. Q: You have two little girls, Katerien (3) and Elise (2). How has motherhood changed your life? What is the best thing about being a mom? A: The love and attention and cute words and hugs and wet kisses and dirty little hands … I am crazy for each moment of being a mom! Motherhood has taught me to not be so focused on myself. And I have learned patience! Q: Your husband, Ernst Joubert, was well-known as rugby player. What does he do these days? A: He is Head of Operations at Stellenbosch Academy of Sport Rugby Institute and enjoying this new role in the sport.

You’ll see them popping up on everything from head to toe --- the more outrageously colourful the better. They’re the newest rage for trims and a bunch of hippy Boho bobbles will boost anything.

Yeah, yeah, everyone goes on about sun protection but if you don’t do it, people, don’t go there. You won’t like what happens...... What you’re looking for is better protection, more skin care and zip fuss. Do yourself a favour, before you hit the sun, slap on the sunscreen. Nivea Sun Protect and Moisture Moisturising Sun Spray SPF 50+, R174.99, is a must for super surfers, girl gogglers, mermaids and beach babes as it’s very easy to apply with the spray. Make sure you reapply throughout the day. Always keep your face protected with Nivea Anti-Age Face Sun Cream SPF 50+, R119.99. Labello Hydro Care SPF 15, R21.95 is also non-negotiable.

to encourage your children to live up to their potential
No one said being a parent was easy. It doesn’t come with an instruction book. One minute you are footloose and fancy free; the next moment you have the responsibility of nurturing your precious child. As one parent put it, ‘Do they ever stop needing you?’ Involved, loving, supportive parenting pays off by creating a happier, more confident child who is more likely to live up to their potential. Follow these tips on how parents can encourage their children to live up to their full potential academically, in the fields that interest and accommodate them best.
1. Recognise your child’s uniqueness
Parents tend to expect too much. Rather give your children the space to try different activities and to explore various careers in order to discover the best fit for them. Support their choice – one child may excel in mathematics, while another may prefer languages and debate.
2. Attend career fairs and pay for extra lessons
Attend career fairs to establish what career options are open to your child. This is an important step in helping your child determine the best subject choices in Grade 9, as certain careers require you to take specific subjects at school.
3. Discipline starts with young children
It is too late to introduce discipline when children are teenagers; they are already rebellious by then! Provide clear boundaries for acceptable behaviour and help them to take responsibility. If they want special presents, make them earn it – with good grades and chores around the house.
4. Save
Save what you can towards your child’s education. The earlier you start, the better. Every bit helps.
5. Pay for extra lessons
If you cannot afford to send your child to university, save to pay for extra lessons. This is money well spent, as their marks will improve, and as will their chances of securing a bursary.
6. Love and appreciate them
It all comes down to love. Encourage and appreciate them.

Health & Wellbeing Water-wise diabetics
Water is of vital importance for diabetics
More than three-quarters of deaths in Africa due to diabetes are in people under 60. In developing countries, including South Africa, less than half of people with diabetes are diagnosed.1 Whilst type 1 diabetes is related to genetics, the most prevalent form, type 2, is a direct result of an unhealthy lifestyle and poor food choices. Food plays a vital role in reducing the risks of type 2 diabetes, but equally so, what we drink can be a ticking time bomb if not managed correctly. Popular high-sugar drinks such as sodas, iced teas and fruit juices contain an unhealthy amount of sugar, and much debate rages around the ‘sugar-free’ variations thereof. Water is always the best option, as it won’t raise your blood sugar levels and helps the body eliminate excess glucose through urine. Women should drink approximately eight glasses of water a day and men up to 10. People who drink two cups or less of water a day were 30 percent more likely to have high blood sugar than those who drank more than that daily.2 The reason for this is due to a hormone called vasopressin, which helps the body regulate hydration. When a person is dehydrated, vasopressin stimulates the liver to produce more blood sugar.
Eight to 10 glasses of water a day is a tall order, especially if water doesn’t appeal to you, so how can you manage to maintain hydration whist eliminating the bland and avoiding sugars? • Infuse water with fresh fruit such as lemon, lime or orange or herbs such as mint, basil or ginger. • Carbonated water can improve the taste, as the bubbles bring to the surface the flavour and aroma of the drink. Scientists have also found an enzyme on the sour receptors of our tongues called Carbonic Anhydrase 4 (CA-IV). The bubbles stimulate the sour buds and the somatosensory system. The dual activation on the buds and the nerves creates a pleasurable sensation. • Mash berries such as blueberries, raspberries or cranberries and add carbonated water. • Refrigerate stock from boiling vegetables for a refreshing, vitamin-packed drink. • Caffeine-free teas such as Rooibos, green, chamomile or peppermint make for drinking pleasure both warm and iced.

Graad 6-kamp by Hobbiton-On-Hogsback Die hoogtepunt van enige Laerskool Nahoon-leerder se skoolloopbaan is sekerlik die Graad 6-kamp wat by Hobbiton-On-Hogsback gehou word. Hier kry die leerders die geleentheid om vir ‘n volle week tyd in die natuur deur te bring, spanbou-aktiwiteite te voltooi en ook om hul klasmaats op ‘n heel ander manier te leer ken. Hulle het na verskillende watervalle gestap, geleer om vlotte te bou en ook op die dam te roei. Baie leerders ontdek en doen dinge wat hulle nie gedink het hulle kan doen nie.
Laerskool Nahoon verjaar Laerskool Nahoon vier vanjaar sy 45ste bestaansjaar. Om behoorlik fees te vier, het al die leerders vanaf Graad 1 tot 7 deelgeneem aan ‘n revue. Die tema was Rock around the clock. Elke klas het die geleentheid gehad om op die verhoog te verskyn en deur dans, sang of bewegings ‘n liedjie uit te beeld. Dit was ‘n reuse spanpoging wat deur elke leerder en personeellid geniet is. Selfs die personeel het hul talente tentoongestel op die verhoog.

The adventure begins for the Grade 1s with Camp Bush Baby
Grade 4s go water testing
The Grade 1s took part in their first adventure camp sleepover – Camp Bush Baby. This is the beginning of their adventure journey at Lilyfontein School. During the camp they collected firewood, set up their own tents, sat around the camp fire appreciating the sounds of nature and the stars, looked for nocturnal animals, walked at night through the forest, learnt to make fire to boil water in a tin can and boil an egg, built a shelter and made clay sculptures. What a busy 19 hours away from home they had!
Mila Pascoe and Christine Bollaert Davies went with their fellow Grade 4s to the Nahoon River to collect water samples. These were then taken back to Mpongo Park for testing as part of their Social Science Syllabus.
