KEEP CALM! SPRING IS COMING ...

Hey, you!

Have you ever wished that life could have a big red “pause” button? Not to stop the whole thing permanently; just so you could linger in an enjoyable moment. Or finish the homework you were assigned for tomorrow…

Sadly, time waits for no one, and this month is flying by. The fact that September is at our doorstep reminds us that spring is coming, and with it hopefully some warmer weather and longer days. Soon, it’ll be pool party time again.

Until then, take a break – and read AWSUM.

For now, there are only 3 weeks remaining before the Rugby World Cup kicks off in England!!! Excitement is growing, even here at AWSUM HQ. Make sure that you enter the competition on Page 16 where you could stand a chance of winning a rugby jersey and ball signed by Jean de Villiers. To enter, simply like AWSUM on Facebook and post a comment on our wall: Rugby World Cup #MakeItAHomeGame.

MAROEN MASJIEN SPEEL KLAAR MET GREY !

Paul Roos se eerste rugbyspan het die afgelope naweek gesorg vir ’n groot hoogtepunt in die vieringe van die skool se 150ste bestaansjaar deur Grey Kollege, Bloemfontein ná ’n oorwinning van 19-12 huis toe te stuur. Die onstuitbare Maroen Masjien, wat vanjaar ook vir Grey High (PE) en Affies elk ’n ordentlike loesing gegee het, het soos tiere verdedig en sodoende gesorg dat Grey gesukkel het om agter die Stellenbossers se doellyn te gaan kuier .

BESTE VIR LAASTE EN LAASTE VAN DIE BESTES

Paul Roos se eerste hokkiespan het Grey ook met 3 doele teenoor 1 geklop, hoewel dié wedstryd “die mees fisieke een van die jaar is” - aldus Breda Reed (links bo), lid van PRG se eerste hokkiespan en die beste speler in sy ouderdomsgroep landwyd. Foto’s: Inus Grobler

THE SELFIE CULTURE: SHOULD WE BE WORRIED?

By Steven Woda www.uknowkids.com

You can hardly go onto Facebook, Instagram or any other social media site without being inundated with selfies. A recent study found that a 91% of teens have reportedly posted a photo of themselves online. With this kind of statistic, odds are that your teen has already taken and posted at least one of these instant self-portraits.

For most teens, selfies are a harmless bit of adolescent fun, no more dangerous than other passing fads. Actual damage by selfie is rare, but it does happen. As a parent, you need to be aware of these risks and become equipped to discuss them with your teen.

SELFIES AND SELF-ESTEEM One risk factor for selfies is that the act and obsession with taking them can lead teens to the development of poor selfesteem.

There has been some speculation about whether self-portraits help or hurt self-esteem. Out of the few studies that have been conducted on the matter, the verdict on the effects of selfies on teen

self-esteem is somewhat conflicting.

A body image survey conducted by the TODAY Show found that 65% of teen girls feel that selfies boost their self-confidence. 40% of them agreed that social media helps them put their best face forward. However, 53% of respondents alleged that photos of themselves that are posted by others can make them feel bad.

Earlier this year a teen from the UK became obsessed with taking the perfect

selfie. He dropped out of school, lost thirty pounds, and didn’t leave the house for six months because he was devoting ten or more hours a day to taking pictures.

The chances are pretty good that your teen is not as ill as this young man was, but, while rare, the case

privacy settings throughout their social media accounts.

3. Instruct your kids to be careful about the personal settings and items that are featured in selfies.

4. Only post selfies that you would be comfortable sharing with the world.

SPORT NETBALL LEADS TO MANY OPPORTUNITIES The Varsity Sports Netball tournament kicks off on 6-7 September and some of the country’s best netball players will be in action. Maties finished fourth last year and as co-captains Juline Rossouw and Suné Claassens will play a big role in their team’s efforts to do even better this year.

Rossouw is a former Paarl Gymnasium learner who enrolled at Stellenbosch University (SU) in 2011. She is currently studying towards a degree in Education.

Netball is her passion and she is not planning on quitting any time soon. “I don’t think there is anything else in this world that makes me as happy as being between those four lines on court.” This defender, who represented the Proteas in

the Fast Five World series in New Zealand in 2013, is currently playing for Maties, the Cape Winelands Senior A side and the Southern Stings (in the Brutal Fruit Netball Cup). Claassens, a former Augsburg High (Augsburg Landbougimnasium) learner, also enrolled at SU in 2011 and has already graduated with a B.Com degree as well as a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE). She is currently busy with a postgraduate diploma in development finance. As centre she is playing for Maties, the Cape Winelands Senior A side and the Southern Stings. “Netball isn’t just a sport for me, it’s a lifestyle,” she says.

Both Rossouw and Claassens encourage new students to continue playing sport

while at university, and after. “It teaches you to manage your time, keeps you fit and healthy, offers you a break from your studies and gives you the opportunity to meet new people. To top it all, you also get the chance to be part of something like Varsity Netball,” says Claassens.

The team is coached by Christine Markgraaff-Behan and the squad includes Sasha-Lee Petersen, Jo Prins, Haike Brink, Juline Rossouw, Suné Claassens, Nelandré Mostert, Cari Swart, Saskia Stander, Stephanie Brandt, Somari Els, Charmaine Baard and Melandi Pretorius.

DO IT YOURSELF: TEA CUP BIRD FEEDER.

Spring is just around the corner (yay!). And I can’t wait to get back into my garden… I don’t have much of a green thumb, things tend to die quickly in my yard (oops).

I have found this great garden idea online that I want to share with you. What a better way to welcome all of our feathered friends back than with this adorable tea cup bird feeder?

WHAT YOU NEED: • A tea cup and saucer.

• Wild bird seed.

• Super adhesive glue.

• String.

Found on: www.mommymoment.ca

WHAT TO DO: • Make sure your cup and saucer are clean and dry.

• Squeeze some of the glue onto the edge of your saucer.

• Tip your tea cup onto its side and

place on-top of the glue.

You will need to let it set for about 24 hours before you hang it outside.

Next all you have to do is pour in your birdseed and hang it up.

EDUCATION

A PLAYBALL SUCCESS STORY......

The Mom & Baby House WE RENT TO: Single and Twin moms, Toddler and infant moms, holiday visitors.

Playball Helderberg Franchise Playball Helderberg is owned and run by Toni Booyens and Careen du Toit. Toni has been teaching Playball for 21 years and Careen has been teaching for 16 years.

We buy & sell new & pre-loved goods

021 8517640

www.babyhouse.co.za

Toni had just graduated from Stellenbosch University in 1994 with a Degree in Human Movement Science. She saw an advertisement in the paper “Do you love children? Do you love sport?” and decided she had nothing to lose by meeting with the CEO of Playball. The meeting took all of 20 min and the rest was history.

Playball Somerset West was a reality! Her

business really took off once classes were introduced into the school morning and this fact along with lots of hard work has helped the business to grow to more than 400 children at present. In 1999 Careen also spotted the same kind of advertisement and decided to follow a new direction after 12 years of teaching and venture into her 2 passions: Sport and Children. She took over the existing Stellenbosch Playball franchise with 60 children. . Now many years later her business has also gone from strength to strength and is currently running on 600 children. It can be quite daunting running a new business alone and Careen and Toni soon decided to invest in a third business together.

They bought the existing Strand/Gordons Bay Franchise and have been running successfully since 2002 with an average of 250-300 children.

They have been working as business partners ever since and run both the separate businesses and joint business on the same solid principles: ▪ Honesty ▪ Integrity ▪ Loyalty ▪ Friendliness ▪ Helpfulness ▪ Love for children ▪ Passion for teaching ... to name but a few things.

INTERSKOLE TEEN HERMANUS

Ons Interskole teen Hermanus het op 15 Augustus plaasgevind. Die opbou na die jaarlikse geleentheid het al die Vrydag met ons “Big Brag” begin. Tydens die geleentheid het Fanie van der Merwe, ons land se paraolimpiese kampioen en wêreldrekordhouer oor 100m en 200m die leerders kom motiveer om die volgende dag hul beste te lewer. By die geleentheid is al die spanne voorgestel. Meer as 800 spelers was die Saterdag betrokke en ons het met rugby en netbal begin. Op

die rugbyveld was die stryd baie gelykop. Op die netbalbane het ons die oorhand gehad. Daarna is die hokkiewedstryde afgehandel. Hier het ons ook koning gekraai. Alle wedstryde is in baie goeie gees gespeel en die spelers het dit baie geniet. Wat die 0/13A wedstryde betref het ons die netbal, hokkie-seuns en dogters gewen, maar ongelukkig met die rugby vasgeval.

Voorwaar ‘n dag om te onthou!

HOËRSKOOL STELLENBOSCH INTERSKOLE 2015 – TE WORCESTER 22 AUGUSTUS

Rugby: In die jaarlikse rugby kragmetings tussen Hoërskool Stellenbosch en Montana, het dit baie goed gegaan met die Stellie spanne. Die junior wedstryde was ‘n redelik gelyke stryd met die Stellies O/14’s wat met 17 – 7 gewen en die O/15’s wat 7 elk gelykop geëindig het. In die O/16 wedstryd het die Stellies, met goeie spanspel die drieë (met Melcom Wanza wat 3 drieë gedruk het!) ingeryg vir ‘n 52 – 0 oorwinning. In die O/19B wedstryd het die Stellies ‘n 10 – 0 voorsprong opgebou teen halftyd en met ‘n wipplank tweede helfte die wa deurgetrek vir ‘n eindtelling van 17 – 5. Die O/19A wedstryd was gekenmerk deur ‘n taai stryd tussen die swaarder pak van Montana en die ligter beweegliker pak van die Stellies. Die uitslag is sterk bepaal deur die span met die beste vermoë om fokus op die bal te hou. Aldrin Greef (10) was die spreekwoordelike generaal wat die gang van die wedstryd bestuur het, met Hanreco van Zyl (15) wat enige swak skop deur Montana in ‘n nagmerrie verander het vir die tuisspan. Stellenbosch het ‘n stadige wurggreep op die wedstryd gekry en was teen halftyd met 10 – 0 voor. ‘n Uitgevangde vuishou het beteken dat Montana die wedstryd met 14 man moes voltooi, waarna daar net te veel gate was om toe te stop.

Stellenbosch se plaasvervangers het die impak gelewer waarvoor hulle gekies was. Eindtelling in die hoofwedstryd 38 – 0.

Stellenbosch se puntemakers was : Drieë: Nr 7 AJ van der Merwe, nr 13 Duran Manuel, nr 18 Shudley Arnolds (2), nr 9 Fabio Sedeman en

nr 8 Gerrit Langenhoven.

Vervyfskoppe: Nr 10 Aldrin Greef (4)

Hokkie: Baie geluk aan elke Stelliehokkiespeler wat saterdag teen strawwe kompetisie baie goed gevaar het. Die uitslae was baie gelyk en elke wedstryd is in goeie gees gespeel. Uitslae met name tussen hakkies die speler van die wedstryd.

Seuns: 0/18 A verloor 0-1 (Joshua Apples) 0/18 B gelyk 1-1 (Keanu Jason) 0/16 A wen 3-1 (Marco de Kock) 0/14 A gelyk 0-0 (Collin Janse van Rensburg) Dogters: 0/18 A verloor 1-2 (Heleen Petzer) 0/18 B gelyk 1-1 (Andrea du Preez) 0/18 C verloor 0-2 (Lene Burger) 0/16 A wen 1-0 (Jana Lombard) 0/16 B wen 2-0 (Zanri Breytenbach) 0/14A verloor 0-1 (Ane Beukes) Netbal: Interskole het soos ouder gewoonte weer gesorg vir groot opwinding.

Die netbal was geen uitsondering.

Van naelbyt stryde tot weghol segas het die aksie op die baan nie teleurgestel nie. Die o.14 A wedstryd is van begin tot einde gekenmerk deur aggressiewe verdediging deur Montana. Die Stellies moes veg tot die einde vir ‘n 9-12 sege oor hul Worscester eweknieë.

Die o.16 A wedstryd was eenrigting verkeer met die Stellies wat gedurig die bal van hul opponente afgerokkel het en sodoende met 3-30 geseëvier het.

Die eindtelling van die o.18 A wedstryd weerspieël nie die werklike

verloop van sake nie. Stellies moes veel harder veg vir hulle 21-27 oorwinning oor Montana. Die eerste helfte van die wedstryd was baie gelykop met min te kies tussen die twee spanne. Die gety het egter in Hoërskool Stellenbosh se guns begin swaai in die derde kwart met Montana wat stadig maar seker meer en meer die bal moes afstaan.

Die Stellies se knap verdediging was instrumenteel deur die balbesit om te keer en die doele kon eenvoudig nie mis doel nie. Die vierde kwart het aan die Stellies behoort. Hul kondisionering en fiksheid het verseker dat hulle beheer neem van die wedstryd en die gesogte Interskolekampioen bly.

Die doel van dié seremonie was om God te dank vir dit wat was en Sy seёn te vra op wat nog moet gebeur, terwyl Parel Vallei sal voortgaan om na uitnemendheid te strewe…

Onderwysers en gaste het heerlik saam verjaardagkoek geёet en leerders het

gesmul aan verjaardag-oliebolle wat hoё energievlakke verseker het vir die “BIG BRAG”, wat gevolg is deur die eerste derbywedstryde teen Somerset College.

Die naweek is afgesluit met die PVU(Parel Vallei Unie) ete en dans op die Saterdagaand. Dis voorwaar ‘n hoogtepunt op die skool se kalender wanneer ou Parel Valleiers, ouers en vriende van PV herenig en die goeie ou dae herleef, maar meer belangrik nog, bande verstewig wat vir ewig sal voortgaan met Parel Vallei as die middelpunt.

BACK TO THE 80’S … THE TOTALLY AWESOME MUSICAL! WHAT A TREAT IS WAS, INDEED! This musical, performed by ninety Parel Valleiers, was the perfect mix of professional actors, energised dancers, PV’s own band and upcoming singing sensations; one could not ask for more! The cast and directors of the musical really achieved the cultural excellence that they set out to accomplish.

Congratulations to the entire cast, Mrs Sonia Manthey (director), Mrs Gerda von Mollendorff (music director), Mrs Edene Mackenzie (dance co-ordinator) and Mr

Willem Steenkamp (production co-ordinator), ALL PROUD TEACHERS OF PV who led this musical. You created endless opportunities for learners to discover hidden talents, to build their character and to form lasting friendshipswhile having fun! We look forward to the next musical in 2019.

Parel Vallei would also like to specially thank the sponsors: KWIKSPAR SOMERSET @ LION SQUARE, THE KARSTEN GROUP (LOURENSFORD) and the ROLA MOTOR GROUP.
