rsdag

Dit is ons eerste verjaarsdag, en ons sê dankie!

In Mei 2013 het ‘n handjie vol skole in die Boland vir die eerste keer AWSUM-nuus gekry.

Nou, op ons eerste verjaarsdag is ons trots en dankbaar om te sê dat AWSUM deur sy tandekry-fase is en groei dat die biesies bewe.

Ons bedien nou 64 laerskole en 56 hoërskole in 6 streke. Baie dankie vir elke leser, student, adverteerder en ieder en elk wat deel het aan ons sukses.

Hier is wat ‘n paar lesers sê oor AWSUM: • Baie baie dankie vir die pragtige advertensie in die Februarie uitgawe, so by die editorial!

Ek voel so bevoorreg en begunsdig, oorweldig en dankbaar. Ek is oortuig dat julle die perfekte platform bied vir my om te adverteer en my hart en passie te deel met die huishoudigs waar kinders is.

• Uitstekend! Julle is voorwaar AWSUM!!!

• Ek sien uit na elke volgende uitgawe in 2014.

• As ouer van ‘n leerder by een van ons plaaslike

skole, het ek onlangs julle AWSUM koerantjie ontvang. Dit is ‘n pragtige kreatiewe konsep en ek dink dit verskaf fantastiese blootstelling aan skole.

• I have just had the pleasure of reading your AWSUM newspaper! It is great!

• Eerstens wil ek u bedank en loof vir die uitstekende skoolkoerant wat AWSUM is. Ek geniet dit baie en vind dit baie interessant.

• Ek hou van die resepte, artikels en insetsels oor die verskillende skole in die Helderberg en omliggende area, dis baie interessant om te sien waar jou eie skool staan in vergelyking.

Die FOMO-kalender is ook tops!

How to create practical book shelves by using ordinary pine crates.

Using a few pieces of 10 x 44mm PAR pine that you can buy, you can make up your own crates for this project and make them so that they don’t need to be cut in half or you can buy ready made crates at Spiro’s Mica.

Paint the crates with two coats of waterbased enamel. Note: Although this is mentioned at the beginning of the project, I would leave the painting until the end if you are going to cut ready-made crates in half.

Just below any handle holes - if there are any - attach two keyhole brackets.

Note: Use a pencil to mark the hole for the bracket, use an 8mm wood bit to drill out and then screw the bracket in place.

On the 12th of April the Rawson Durbanville Elite team went to visit the Old Oak Bowling Club again for a fun filled day with the elderly. Upon our arrival we were divided into our teams. We collected our bowling balls and headed off to the bowling greens, where the more experienced players showed us how it’s done. We experienced a very hot day in Cape Town while having a good laugh at the few skew throws and red faces. After the first half of excitement, we gathered back in the clubhouse to enjoy a few well deserved refreshments, sponsored by Rawson Durbanville Elite, before getting back to the second half of the game. Bowling might look easy and like a very laid back sport, but there is a lot of technique involved in getting the angles of your throw right. We had a few sore muscles the following day, but still enjoyed it and looking forward to go playing with them again.

Old Oak Bowling Club is always looking for new members. We can most certainly recommend this club, not only do they play the game well, but the members are very friendly and social. So should anyone be interested in joining the club, please contact Johan van Wyk on 082 875 8363 for further information.

Suising in jou kop?

Die Boelie

Dr. Adriaan Pentz (Oor-, neus- en keelspesialis)

Deur Karla van Biljon

Niemand van ons kan die realiteit van boelies ontsnap nie. Almal van ons het al gevoel hoe dit voel om geboelie te word, hetsy deur jou broer of suster, vriende, ‘n werkgewer of ‘n verkoopsman – ons weet hoe dit voel as iemand jou knoppies druk!

As ons verwag dat alles in die wêreld net gelukkig, gemaklik, vredevol, veilig en in oorstemming met ons waardes moet wees, leef ons in ‘n fantasie wêreld.

Boelies help ons somtyds om hierdie fantasie te breek!

Kinders wat afhanklik van ondersteuning, veiligheid, beskerming en goedkeuring bly, trek noodwendig ‘n boelie aan om daardie fantasie van ‘n vredevolle lewe te breek.

Dr. Demartini sê die volgende oor boelies: “If you’ve got a bully in your life and he’s pushing you around, it’s partly because you’re not guiding or governing your own life. You’re not empowered in that area. Once you empower that area, the bully disappears. If you don’t empower yourself, the bully just keeps coming in to toughen you up, to make you stronger so you empower that area.

That bully is your hero because he is actually helping you empower yourself.”

Om te verhoed dat kinders in die moontlikheid van ‘n boelie dinamieka vasgevang kan word, is dit wys om vir hulle te leer hoe om hulle eie lewens te bemagtig:

• ‘n Gesonde maaltydplan en gereelde oefening kan kinders fisies bemagtig.

• As ouer kan jy jou kind help om psigies hulle persepsies in balans te bring.

Jy kan hulle lei om nie ‘n “slagoffer” ingesteldheid aan te neem nie, maar eerder hulle lei om te sien hoe enige iets wat met hule gebeur, hulle help om karakter te bou en ‘n sterker mens te word.

• Sosiaal kan jy jou kind help om ‘n netwerk van vriende te bou waar hy/sy binne die vertrouens verhouding leer hoe om met ander te kommunikeer in terme van di twat hulle in gemeen het.

• Familiaal kan jy as ouer bewus raak om nie nét jou kind te ondersteun nie, maar ook geleenthede van uitdagings vir hulle te bied sodat hulle nie afhanklik raak van goedkeuring nie.

In die dans van die lewe kan ons leer om saam met die boelies te groei en onsself te ontwikkel tot ‘n selfstandige, bemagtigde volwassene!

Vir meer inligting, kontak Karla van Biljon OF kom woon gerus die Familiedinamika Werkswinkel by.

Tinnitus is die geluid in jou kop of ore sonder dat daar ’n eksterne bron van klank is.

Dit is steeds onseker presies hoe dit ontwikkel, maar het te doen met die “elektrisiteit” van die gehoorsisteem.

Enige oorprobleem kan tinnitus veroorsaak. Die algemeenste oorsake is gehoorverlies byvoorbeeld ouderdom en geraasskade. Was in die oorkanale, vog in die middelore en oorontsteking (buite-, middel- en selfs binne-oorontsteking) is ook oorsake.

Sistemiese oorsake soos bloedarmoede, hartsiektes en skildklierprobleme is nie sulke algemene oorsake nie. Daar moet altyd na die newe-effekte van medisyne gekyk word, veral die chroniese middels. ’n Mens behoort bietjie bekommerd te wees oor tinnitus wat harder is in die een oor. Ongelukkig is daar ’n persentasie van mense met tinnitus wat jonk en gesond is, geen medisyne neem nie en normale ore en gehoor het! As dit dan nie erg is nie en net kom en gaan, hoef mens nie bekommerd te wees nie.

As jy dink jy het tinnitus, sien jou dokter sodat hy/sy jou ore mooi kan ondersoek en doen navraag oor die moontlikheid van die doen van ’n gehoortoets by ’n oudioloog. Jou dokter, saam met ’n oor-, neus- en keelspesialis en oudioloog behoort jou mooi te kan help.

Daarna het voornemende welpies die kans gekry om met behulp van toere die skool en sy fasilitiete te besoek en te besigtig. ’n Goed ingeligte graad 7-leerder maak die regte besluit vir sy toekoms, sodat hy/sy gereed kan wees vir alles.

Baie geluk aan Adriaan van Rensburg wat ‘n 5de plek behaal het in die 0/17 seunsdiskus tydens die Suid-Afrikaanse Skole atletiekbyeenkoms.

Die 1ste Rugbyspan van die Hoërskool Bellville het gedurende die vakansie deelgeneem aan die Oakdale Rugbyweek op Riversdal.

Atletiekbyeenkoms

Hoërskool Bellville hou sy 30ste suksesvolle sportdae op 11 en 12 April.

Tydens die sportdae het 18 laerskole en 26 hoërskole deelgeneem. Hoërskool Bellville het weer soos in die verlede hulle jaarlikse sportdag aangebied en sodoende sy ryke tradisie van sportmanne en -vroue voortgesit. Ons dink onwillekeurig na oor oud-leerders wat op die sportterrein presteer het.

Oud – leerders soos Benita van Zyl – Springbokspeelster en kaptein van die netbalspan wat die silwermedalje by die Wêreldkampioenskappe in 1995 gewen het.

Dawie de Villiers, Springbokrugbykaptein wat Suid-Afrika van 1962 – 1970 verteenwoordig het om maar enkeles te noem. Oor die twee dae het 2800 leerders net soos van ouds weer op die velde van die Hoërskool Bellville saamgetrek. Die wintersportsoorte het waarlik floreer op die pragtige groot terrein. 265 Netal-, 40 Hokkie en 45 Rugbywedstryde het oor die twee dae plaasgvind.

Leerders van Hoërskool DF Malan het onlangs die skool se sestigste verjaardag met ‘n vrolike pretdag by die skool gevier. Die plesierigheid het vroeg met ‘n pretstap en ‘n fietswedren afgeskop – selfs Dee-Effers op skopfietse het hul slag kom wys. Een van die hoogtepunte van die oggend was die toutrekkompetisie. Lede van die Jan Krielskool het die DF-leerders touwys gemaak het in die kuns van toutrek, waarna die kompetisie onder groot toejuiging van die toeskouers plaasgevind het. ‘n Idolskompetisie het ook aan die kreatiewes die geleentheid gegee om die res van die skool met hul talente te vermaak. Om die feesvierings behoorlik af te sluit, het ‘n reuse verjaardagkoek – kompleet met kersies – op die meer as duisend Dee-Effers gewag.

Our talented Gr. 12 pupil, Steven Chang, performed a vigorous Rachmaninoff piece on piano. Other pupils who performed were Tina Park (piano), Jinny Jin, Brandon Waddy and Andrew Hill ( both guitars).
