AWSUMCelebrity Interview
Handré Pollard 22-jaar-oue Handré Pollard is die nuwe Bulle-kaptein en het die span onlangs tot ‘n 28–7-oorwinning oor Chiefs gelei. Hy het sy senior loopbaan as ‘n 19-jarige by die Blou Bulle begin en sy Springbokdebuut op 28 Junie 2014 gemaak (teen Skotland in die inkomende toerreeks). Hy het 20 wedstryde vir die Springbokke gespeel, insluitende een teen die All Blacks waar hy twee drieë gedruk het. Hy was ’n sleutelfiguur in Suid-Afrika se herlewing na hulle skok-nederlaag teen Japan in die 2015 Wêreldbeker om die halfeindrondte teen die All Blacks te haal. Hy het sover in sy kort internasionale loopbaan 188 punte aangeteken.
V: Beskryf die ervaring om teen Hoër Jongenskool Paarl in die grootste Interskole-wedstryd ter wêreld te speel. Wat is die besonderse verhouding tussen die twee skole wat dit so spesiaal maak? A: Dit is altyd moeilik om te beskryf ... dit is iets wat mens nie kan verduidelik vir mense wat nie self in een van die skole was nie. Dit is ongelooflik kompeterend, maar daar word ook baie goeie vriendskappe gevorm. Die dorp (Paarl) word in twee gedeel vir daardie week en alle akademiese verpligtinge word opsy gestoot. V: Hoe was dit om in ‘n Wêreldbeker-toernooi te speel? A: Dit was werklik ‘n droom wat waar geword het. Om een toets te speel vir die Bokke is klaar ongelooflik, maar om jou land in die Wêreldbeker te verteenwoordig is iets heeltemal anders. Al het ons net kort geval, was dit my trotsste oomblik van my lewe. En hoop ek kry weer so ‘n geleentheid. V: Wat is die lekkerste daarvan om ‘n professionele rugbyspeler te wees? A: Die vriendskappe en bande wat gevorm word. Almal speel vir verskillende redes. Ek speel om te sorg vir my familie eendag, ja, maar ook vir die vriendskappe en die gevoel na ‘n wen in die kleedkamer. V: Wat is minder aangenaam van jou beroep, buiten beserings? A: Ons kan net vir ‘n beperkte tyd speel en moet kan lewe na rugby. Die hoeveelheid dae weg van die huis af – ja, dit is ongelooflik om te toer en die wêreld te sien, maar tyd saam met familie en vriende is kosbaar. V: Jy was baie lank op die kantlyn gewees met jou beserings. Hoe het jy jouself besig gehou? A: Die rehab-deel van die besering vat baie tyd meer as wat mense besef. Enige rugbyspeler sal sê dit is harder om van besering af terug te kom as wat dit is om te speel. Maar verder het ek gholf gespeel en tyd saam met vriende en familie spandeer. V: As die nuwe Super Rugby-kaptein van die Bulls, hoe sien jy hierdie uitdaging, veral in die lig daarvan gesien dat jy nog betreklik jonk is? A: Ek is jonk, maar ek speel al redelik lank senior rugby en het baie ervaring opgedoen. Ek sal alles wat ek tot dusver geleer het en wat ek gaan leer die jaar probeer oordra so goed ek kan aan my span en lei met my voorbeeld.

V: Hoe het jy die wedstryde in Australië ervaar, waar julle beide ‘n Super Rugbyopwarmingswedstryd teen Chiefs gespeel het en ook aan die Brisbane Global Tens deelgeneem het? A: Daar was baie positiewe en ook negatiewe, waaraan ons hard gaan werk om reg te maak voor die Stormers-wedstryd. Maar as geheel was dit ‘n baie goeie toer gewees en ook baie goed vir die gees van die span. V: Hoe voel jy oor julle kanse in die opkomende Super Rugby-toernooi, wat vir die Bulls op 25 Februarie in Kaapstad teen die Stormers begin? A: Ons glo ons het ‘n baie goeie kans, net soos al die ander spanne. Ons neem deel om die kompetisie te wen – enigiets anders as dit sal ons sien as onsuksesvol. V: Hoe hanteer jy die roem en aandag wat ‘n hoëprofielspeler soos jy geniet? A: Ag, daar is voordele en nadele. Mens moet altyd onthou jy was self jonk en het opgekyk na die Bokke daardie tyd. Solank jou ondersteuningsraamwerk saam met familie en vriende reg is, is dit alles ‘n bysaak. V: Wat is jou mikpunte wat jy graag sal wil bereik in jou rugbyloopbaan? A: Op die oomblik net eers terugwees op die veld en my beste doen wat ek kan vir die Bulle en hopellk terug kom in die Bokspan. Ek sal dan weer my mikpunte bekyk. V: Wat laat jou hart warm klop wanneer jy weg is van die rugbyveld? A: My verloofde, Marise Malherbe! V: Wat is jou stokperdjies? Enige ander sport wat jy graag speel? A: Ek is mal oor gholf – al kan ek nie baie speel nie, geniet ek dit baie. V: Wat is jou wens vir Springbokrugby? A: My wens is dat die Suid-Afrikaanse publiek agter die Bokke sal staan. Die laaste twaalf maande was nie goed nie, maar ons het ongelooflike talent in die land en kan weer die beste in die wêreld wees.

V: Jy was op Hoërskool Gimnasium Paarl. Hoe was jou ervaring om by so ‘n vooraanstaande skool op hoërskool te wees? Hoe het dit jou rugbyloopbaan beïnvloed? A: Dit was ‘n ongelooflike ervaring. Ek het geleer om week in en week uit op die hoogste vlak van Suid Afrikaanse skolerugby te speel en die druk te hanteer.

Lemon meringue pie I find most lemon meringue pies to be rather sickly and insipid with hardly a hint of lemon. This one has a real lemon kick with a lovely smooth curd. It is rich, though, and not for the fainthearted.
Serves 4–6 INGREDIENTS • 1 packet (200 g) Tennis biscuits • 125 ml (½ cup) melted butter grated rind and juice of 4 lemons • 1 tin (385 g) condensed milk • 3 extra-large eggs, separated • 2,5 ml (½ tsp) cream of tartar • 180 g castor sugar • 2,5 ml (½ tsp) baking powder
METHOD • Preheat the oven to 180 °C. • Crush the biscuits. I do this by bashing the biscuits into crumbs using a double plastic shopping bag, tied loosely, and a rolling pin. • In a small bowl, mix the biscuit crumbs with the melted butter. Press the mixture into a shallow pie plate. Smooth with the back of a spoon. • In a bowl, mix together the
lemon rind, lemon juice, condensed milk and egg yolks. • Pour into the crumb base. • In a clean dry bowl, beat the egg whites to a soft peak. Add the cream of tartar and beat until the peaks are very stiff. Add the castor sugar, one tablespoon at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in the baking powder once the egg whites and sugar have formed a stiff meringue. • Spoon the meringue onto the egg mixture and cover gently. Swirl the meringue into peaks with the back of the spoon. • Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the oven off but leave the pie in the oven to cool down completely. This dries the meringue slightly. • Best served chilled.

HOËRSKOOL WATERKLOOF (t) 012 347 0277/8 (e) admin@klofies.co.za Toppresteerders breek weg Die Akademiese Toppresteerders het die naweek van 18 en 19 Februarie op hulle jaarlikse wegbreek gegaan. Die groep leerders het lekker gekuier, ontspan, interessante plekke besoek, waardevolle lesings en inligtingsessies bygewoon, en hul ervaringswêreld vergroot. Die stampvol program is afgeskop met ‘n sessie deur prof. Steyn van Wits oor Forensiese Antropologie in Suid-Afrika. Die sessie het gehandel oor wat die beroep behels tot waarna opgelet word in die gebeendere in die identifikasie van oorledenes en die oorsaak van dood. Verskeie gevallestudies in Suid-Afrika is bespreek. Dit was kompleet soos ‘n episode uit die gewilde televisiereeks Bones! Nog ‘n baie leervolle besoek is aan die Embrio Plus-fasiliteit naby Brits gebring. Dit is híér waar die eerste dier in Suid-Afrika gekloon is. Dit is ook die fasiliteit waar hulle tans poog om deur middel van kloning die uitwissing van die Noordelike Witrenoster te voorkom. Hier het leerders die geleentheid gehad om met vars materiaal, sowel as materiaal wat teen –187º bevrore was, te werk. Die hoogtepunte van die naweek was die interaksie met leeuwelpies en luiperds by die Ukutula Leeupark se navorsingstasie. Leerders het dit baie geniet om tyd met die spelerige klein leeutjies deur te bring. Dit was ‘n sielvolle besoek. Net om seker te maak ons top akademiese leerders bly tops, het hulle weer ‘n kursus oor ‘Aksieleer vir Presteer’ bygewoon. Dit is gevolg deur ‘n sessie wat die leerders baie stof tot nadenke gebied het getiteld: ‘My radikale invloed – my keuses vorm my toekoms’. Dit was ‘n kort, maar baie kragtige naweek. Die leerders het verryk en met heelwat nuwe insigte huis toe gekeer.

to show that they cared for them and everyone shared their picnic baskets. The College students exchanged ribbons – red for love, white for friendship and green for admiration.
