Ruda Landman
For 19 years Ruda Landman was part of South Africans’ Sunday evenings as a co-presenter on Carte Blanche. She left the show in 2007, and since then Ruda presented ‘n Lewe met and VeranderDinge on kykNET and is one of South Africa’s best-known journalist and television personalities. Source: http://www.brightrock.co.za/
It was a great honour for AWSUM to do this interview with her.
Ruda, you grew up in the Northern Cape, Upington to be exact, please tell us about your school career. What school did you attend? Any achievements or great memories? I grew up in small towns all over the Northern Cape – Hartswater, then Keimoes, and boarding school in Upington for my high school years. It shaped who I am. Both your parents were school teachers, as a teenager how did you find that? By the time I got to high school they were no longer actively teaching – my dad had moved on to be an inspector of schools, and my mum stopped teaching. But I learnt what any teachers want to instil: discipline, punctuality, and doing your homework! What did you do after school? How did you end up as a presenter? I studied Afrikaans and English at Stellenbosch University, and did a teaching diploma, but decided I did not want to teach. So I got a job at Die Burger in Cape Town, and later at the Afrikaanse Diens at SABC radio, now RSG. Management at the TV news department were looking for women to read the news in Afrikaans, and I was among three or four who started doing that. It’s a well-known fact that when you started your career you could not speak English & had a very bad Afrikaans accent. Did you ever wish that you could go back to high school and do things differently? I wouldn’t know how – my world was Afrikaans. That’s who I am. When it became necessary, I could and did learn to speak English. As a young conservative Afrikaans lady in the 80’s, the boundary-pushing TV show Carte Blanche was an eye opener for you. Do you have one story/ experience that will stay with you? I can’t narrow it down to one story. We got to know the country in close-up during the transition years of the late 80s and early 90s. It was an amazing personal and professional journey. Your family is the most important thing in your life. Any advice on how to be a big career woman and a great mom and wife? Choose the right partner, and pay attention to the relationship. Find and appreciate other help, in my case Rosie Mgangathe who has been housekeeper, nanny and organiser of our lives since 1981. A lot of our readers invited you into our homes on a Sunday evening on Carte Blanche. What does a normal Sunday look like in the Landman household? The best part of leaving CB was having my Sundays to myself! We might go for a walk or a late breakfast in the morning, and then sit on our stoep, braai, have some good red wine, read, perhaps watch a cop series.

AWSUM NEWS MAY 2018
Do you like cooking and what is your speciality? My husband loves to braai. I have developed a whole catalogue of delicious salads to go with that. Otherwise, I make a mean curry. Please explain to our readers what Study Trust is all about and how GRAD: Your Guide to University Success is helping students. This year, South Africa has about 150,000 first-year students at university. Around 60% of them are first-generation, the first in their family to go to university. They have no one to turn to when things get rough, no one to say, “Don’t worry, I’ve walked the road, it will get better. Hang in there.” They need skills like handling money, managing time, mastering huge amounts of information, handling stress. StudyTrust has been administering bursaries for more than 40 years, and they have a support system for the students which includes seminars on all these subjects. I adapted that content, Van Schaik Publishers turned it into a lovely, vibrant booklet (pro bono), and Capitec sponsored printing and distribution of 140,000 copies which were delivered to 22 universities in January. “Tell me your story” is your latest book that was launched in April. What inspired you to write this book? About three years ago, insurance company BrightRock approached me to interview a range of South Africans for their website, The Change Exchange (www.changeexchange.co.za). The idea was to talk about change moments in life – how do you make decisions, or how do you handle change when it is forced upon you. From that flowed the kykNET programme VeranderDinge, for which I did similar interviews. It was wonderful – people shared insight and life lessons and personal emotion, far beyond what I had expected. I wanted to find a wider audience for that, so I selected 18 of the interviews and put it into a book. Why do you think it’s important to hear everyone’s story? Our experience of our reality in this country is so diverse that we can very easily retreat into separate enclaves and start talking about “they” and “them”. That breaks up society and disables our growth and development. How will we understand one another if we don’t listen to the stories? You interviewed really big names, how do you prepare for an interview and any specific interviews that changed your life? You have to find out as much as you can about the person so that the conversation can be about his or her experience, emotion, interpretation, response, not about the facts. The facts are just the washing line to hang the real content on. Again, I can’t single out specific interviews. The experience of talking to such a wide range of South Africans has shifted and shaped my view of our reality. What is next for Ruda Landman? I’m not a planner. A door opens and I consider the possibilities. We’ll have to see!

York secure third title in Hockey Challenge York High won their third title in a row when they defeated close rivals Outeniqua High in the South Western Districts final of the SPAR Eastern Cape Schoolgirls Hockey Challenge in George on Saturday. The defending champions won 2-0 in a repeat of last year’s title decider and they have again earned the right to represent the region in the provincial finals to be played on August 11. These take place at Woodridge, just outside Port Elizabeth, and will see the five regional winners playing off to decide the year’s overall winners. The other qualifiers are Kingswood (PE Inland), Alexander Road (PE Coastal), Hudson Park (East London Coastal) and Kingsridge (East London Inland). Despite winning the title the previous two years, York coach Erica Combrink said before the tournament they knew there would be plenty of pressure on them. With the games in this competition being played on a shortened format over 20 minutes, matches are contested at a high intensity. Combrink said their strategy would be to try to score goals early in the match to transfer the pressure to their opponents. Event organiser Peter Wilson said it had been another thrilling day of schoolgirls hockey, with as much excitement

off the field as on it. “The vibe at York High was outstanding, even from 7.30 in the morning,” he said. “These schools really embrace this competition with everything they have and that’s really good to see.” He added that the hockey was of a high standard, with plenty of competition throughout the day. “The thing with the shortened format of 20 minutes a match is that the whole competition is unpredictable because anyone can win. “It’s a bit like sevens rugby and if you can score a goal early on, then you are in the driving seat.” SPAR EC sponsorship and events manager Alan Stapleton said they were thrilled with the support the tournament received from the South Western Districts schools. “From an organisational point of view this was one of the best tournaments we have had,” he said. “The hockey was really competitive, with no team having any big victories during the day. “Well done to York for their efforts and, having won the tournament three times now, they will know what to expect when it comes to the provincial finals in August.”

Cheese, Houtbosch wine and some fun at Glenwood House Pre-Preparatory Glenwood House Pre-Preparatory hosted a cheese and Houtbosch wine evening for the parents. A special thanks to Kelly Kieswetter from Houtbosch for sponsoring the wine tasting event. The goal for the evening for the moms and dads to experience what their children did during their day at school. They enjoyed some sensory play, painting, drawing, phonics, gross and fine motor skills as well as some communication skills. A day in the life of a Glenwoodian Pre Prep pupil is lots of fun. A wonderful evening was had by all.
HOËRSKOOL ALBERTINIA Onderwys belegging Die SBA se belegging in die onderwys en deurlopende bydrae tot verskeie fasette van geletterdheidsontwikkeling, sluit sedert 2017 ‘n fokus op wetenskapontwikkeling in. In vernootskap met Stellenbosch University Outreach (SUNCOI) het 4 graad11 leerders hierdie sessie by gewoon en ook die graad 12’s vroeër vanjaar en die graad10’s van HS Albertinia wat in die volgende kwartaal die lab sal kom besoek. Hierdie daglange werkwinkel en praktiese komponente van die skoolkurrikulum in ‘n ten volle toegeruste laboratorium het hierdie 4 leerders baie geniet en verstaan die werk baie beter omdat hul die praktiese gedeeltes gesien het en ook self kon gedoen het in die lab. Die SBA se fokus met hierdie Chemie projek is om leerders wat nie ‘n toegeruste lab by hul skole het nie wel die geleentheid gee om te kan werk in ‘n toegeruste lab om sodoende te verbeter in die vak.
