Gone are the days of subtly trying to hide all the cables around your home. Why not take a few tips from these creatives and expose not only cables, but also your artistic side. Simply use wire clips along the wall to construct a design you’d be happy to look at every day. Here is an example of what can be done: This is also a great cheat for livening up any dull wall you may have in your home.

MAD HATTERS
Civvies Day at Herbert Hurd last week was a fun affair. The theme was “Mad Hatters” and pupils showed great creativity, coming up with some truly imaginative headgear.
BLOOD DRIVE
Every year Herbert Hurd Primary partners with the South African National Blood Service (SANBS) by participating in a blood donation challenge. Pupils encourage family members and friends to
donate blood during a specified month, and, in March this year 178 members of the wider Herbert Hurd family donated blood to the SANBS.
Here, grade one teacher, Miss Evans, poses with her pupils. Her class, Room 4, won the prize for achieving the highest percentage participation in the blood donation challenge.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
Every Tuesday Herbert Hurd pupils make and bring extra sandwiches to school. These sandwiches are then delivered to Livingstone Hospital oncology department where they are distributed to the out-patients waiting for treatment. Herbert Hurd pupils really put their hearts into this initiative and many include little notes of love and encouragement in the sandwich wrapping. Here, grade three pupils help pack the crates before they are collected for delivery.
BE JUST - FEAR NOT
Jenna Grobler, a grade seven pupil, recruited the most blood donors. Here she poses with her prize presented to her by a representative of the SANBS.

FASHION
Fashion Editor Pepe Sofianos snaps up the best fake-leather biker jackets. Babe in a biker jacket - who can forget Sandra Dee’s transformation from prissy prom queen to big-time punk princess in Grease? Once upon a time, biker jackets were the territory of those hairy, tattooed blokes on Harleys - the ones you didn’t take home to meet the folks! Now the motorcycle jacket has evolved into a fashion must. It’s an instant style boost with its unmistakable surfeit of zips, snaps, studs and hardware plus quilted patches in that boxy arrogant mannish cut that simply goes with everything and suits everyone.

HOW TO WEAR THE BIKER JACKET:
Be the grunge queen with a bare midriff look and tightfitting cropped moto jacket and low-slung shredded jeans. Thick black jacket with detachable faux fleece collar, R1249, Topshop at Edgars. Tan jacket with epaulettes and double front zippers, R1399, Sissy Boy at Foschini.
Black heavy-weight classic jacket, R999, Re at Woolworths.

GO FOR PLEATHER

Yes, real genuine leather is the top prize but set your sights on pleather or leather–look as: a) it’s ethically better for your karma and b) it’s so much better on your pocket.

Who will help me mix the dough and bake the muffins? We will, we will ! And so they did…….. They all helped to bake delicious muffins. What fun !!!
Waiting to mix the dough.
….and into the oven it goes.
Carefully into the muffin pan.
Future master chefs at work.
Into our tummies
What did we learn from all this ? 1.Work hard - The hen wasn’t afraid of hard work even if nobody else on the farm would help her 2. Ignore naysayers – The other farm animals told the little red hen that she was crazy to work hard while they were lazing about and having fun. 3. Fairness – The animals who didn’t share in the work didn’t earn any of the bread. 4. Rewards – Hard work pays great rewards in the end. The Little Red Hen had some delicious bread to eat and share with her family while the other animals had nothing.

PROVOCATIVE POETRY MYSTERIOUS MOROCCAN MESSENGER WINS TOP PRIZE DELIVERS THEODOR DANCE INVITATIONS
A brilliant and thought-provoking poem about the harsh realities of human trafficking has won first prize for Isabella Liss, a Grade 10 student at Theodor Herzl High School. The competition was arranged under the auspices of the Department of Education and highlighted Human Rights Week.
Every year, Theodor Herzl matrics excitedly await the surprise delivery of their Matric Dance invitations – and every year, the event is more memorable than the next! This year’s Moroccan-inspired theme was revealed when a bare chested, bejewelled and turbaned rider galloped up to the drop-jawed group to distribute their scrolled invitations. New Executive Principal Mr John Alexander is turning out to be a man of many talents...including horse riding... and always game for a bit of fun!

VERJAARSDAGVIERINGE
DF het op 22 Mei 2015 hul sestigste verjaarsdagvieringe gehou. Nadat daar eers aandag aan die akademie gegee is, is daar behoorlik fees gevier. Elke klas het ‘n 33cm x 19cm koek, versiersuiker en blinkertjies gekry. Hulle moes dit self versier. Die kreatiewe sappe het behoorlik gevloei. Daarna is elke koek deur Dave Ash en Martin Bezuidenhout beoordeel. Each class also received a piece of white material to decorate
according to the birthday theme. These pieces of cloth will be sewn together as a banner for the interschools sports day. Part of all this excitement was a tree planting ceremony. Seven indigenous trees were planted. The learners thoroughly enjoyed eating the cake and celebrating the Birthday of the school they love so much. Happy Birthday DF! Veels Geluk DF! HiepHiep Hoera!
DEON MEYER BY DF MALHERBE SE GEDENKLESING
Die gewilde en internasionale bekroonde spanningsverhaalskrywer, Deon Meyer, was op 21 Mei die spreker by die jaarlikse Gedenklesing. Hy het die mites dat dit so sleg in Suid-Afrika gaan en dat Afrikaans in die laaste loopgraaf lê, weerlê. Deon Meyer het die gehoor besiel om self prakties ‘n verskil in minderbevoorregtes se lewens te gaan maak. Die koor het ook amptelik hul nuwe koordrag, geborg deur Blunden, in gebruik geneem. Hulle het die gehoor bekoor met hul pragtige sang. Soos gewoonlik was dit ‘n besielende en genotvolle aand.

INTEREACT GRANNY TEA PEARSON PROMS
On Friday 15 May, Pearson High School’s Interact club, hosted their annual Granny Tea in the Deary Hall. Grandmothers and Grandfathers from old age homes in the Summerstrand area and as far as Kabega Park, were invited. Interact learners act as hosts and hostesses - each table is decorated with gifts and tasty treats. The “golden oldies” enjoyed their tasty treats while being entertained by the talented Pearson learners. The entertainment ranged from music, dancing and singing. A highlight was the “golden oldies” joining in the line-dance. A marked feature of this years’ granny tea were the number of young Pearson boys who acted as hosts. Pearson Interact lived out their motto: Interact Changes Lives & Service above self.
AWSUM
The Music Department of Pearson High School held their prestigious Proms Concert, on Friday, 22 May, in their school hall. The versatility of the music department was clearly noticeable and the learners excelled in providing an evening of good music. All the talent Pearson has to offer came to the fore: the concert band, wind band, jazz band,
choir and the string ensemble. From the powerful opening number ‘Carmina Burana’ to the very popular ‘Uptown Funk’ as closing number, it was evident that the musicians enjoyed what they were doing. The Pearson Proms concert was the start of Pearson’s Reunion/Founders day weekend of celebrating 89 years of excellence in education.

BAIE DANKIE CILLIÉ LEERDERS, LANDLOOP JULLE IS ONGELOOFLIK
Verlede jaar het ons leerders R58 000 ingesamel. Die uitdaging was dat mnr. Wilken vir ‘n hele skooldag op die dak sou sit. Dié jaar is ons leerders uitgedaag om R60 000 in te samel. Dan sou die skoolhoof sy snor (van 35 jaar) afskeer. Ons onderwysers het nie gedink dat die leerders hierdie mikpunt sou behaal nie, maar hulle verras ons toe en samel R68 000 in! Die Gr8’s
het die meeste geld ingesamel en hulle graadhoof besluit toe ook om sy hare af te skeer. Baie geluk aan Alessandro Schutte wat die groot prys, ‘n tablet, gewen het. Aan Zoe Zeelie vir die meeste boekies verkoop. Baie dankie aan elke persoon wat bygedra het tot hierdie ongelooflike poging.
Die landloop het vanjaar afgeskop met die eerste been by Hoërskool Otto du Plessis.
