Grilled GrapeFruits

Whether you’re doing it on your stoep in Strandfontein, or on your patio in Pretoria. Or at your mother’s brother’s uncle’s house in Kraaifontein. There’s nothing better than the smell of a chop sizzling on the coals. And as an extra bonus … WE GET THE DAY OFF!!! Our government set this day aside for all South Africans to celebrate our rich heritage.

Browsing on the internet, I’ve stumbled onto braai.com, whose mission is to position National Braai Day as South Africa’s annual day of celebration on National Heritage Day.

They’ve also shared a list of fun braai words, almost like a braai-dictionary to help you sound cool around the fire:1. Aai: a braai in the summer aka – a braai without the brrrr!2. Abbraaiviation: a very short braai.3. Abraaimowitz: a Jewish braai.4. Asskebab: If somebody makes an ass of himself/herself at a braai you call them an Asskebab.5. Aweh: various meanings and can be widely used to express something positive e.g. hello, yes, nice, good.

6. Baas: Afrikaans for boss, the guy holding the braai tongs.7. Bak: a dish, made from aluminum or stainless steel, used for storing the meat in before and after it is braaied. Some braaiers use a glass bak, but there is a safety concern in this. When you eat straight off of the braai, then a bak is unnecessary.8. Barbie: Australian slang for barbeque. What you learn to call a braai when you immigrate there.9. Black wattle: Alien vegetation that uses a lot of water when alive. Good for the environment to chop it down and braai with it. Versatile braai wood, burns easily when dry, and makes decent coals.10. Blitz: Although this is a brand-name, it is used as a universal term in South Africa for fire lighters of any kind or brand. A frequently asked question at many a braai: “where is the blitz?”11. Blitzbraai: When you light the blitz intending to braai but instead just end up getting blitzed sonder a braai.12. BMW: Braai Met Wiele - Braai met wiele wat hier daar of enige plek gesleep kan word om te braai.13. Boerie: abbreviation for

boereworsroll.14. Bokdopentjop (bok-dop-en-tjop) – ‘bring and braai’ – you may bring your bok (babe), your dop (drinks) and tjop (meat of choice).15. Bosberaad: a conference. You and your friends coming together to discuss your strategy for National Braai Day.16. Braai hard: 90′s action movie about a really rough guy who braais a lot.17. Braai hijacker: the guy that you don’t really want to invite to your braai, but have too. Cause he is someone’s boyfriend. He claims to be a chef and manages to hi-jack the braai when the real braaier goois a dop.18. Braai tongs: Weapon of choice for the braai master.19. Braaiathon: a very long braai20. Braaidsmaid: Female performing supporting role during a braai. E.g. making salad, marinating meat, making braaibroodjies.For more braaicabulary visit http://braai.com/braai-words/

So, make a date with all your pals for the 24th of September and join the revolution to unite 50 million people.

Spring is officially here, and what could be more suitable than celebrating with an entire month dedicated to South African’s favourite pastime – having a BRAAI!

WHAT YOU NEED:• 3 grapefruits• 2 tbls brown sugar (approx)

WHAT TO DO:• Set the oven to grill and

place a rack in the middle shelf.

• Cut grapefruits evenly in half, slice 2-3mm off each base to allow grapefruits to rest flat without rolling.

• If using a grapefruit knife, carefully cut along the rim of the flesh before cutting into 4 or 8 segments.

• Place grapefruits on a baking sheets, flesh side up,and sprinkle each

half with approximately 1 tsp of brown sugar to taste.

• Grill for about 10-15 minutes until flecked and speckled.Serve plain or with yoghurt.

GRILLED GRAPE FRUITSI started serving these zesty and yet slightly warming delicacies on cooler spring retreat mornings. There is something intrinsically cheerful about the smell of grapefruits that make them a welcome addition to a breakfast spread. Select ruby grapefruits for their vibrant colour and richer antioxidant content and use a grapefruit knife to cut into segments before grilling for easier eating.The sprinkle of brown sugar will melt into the grapefruit as it caramelizes, softening the bitterness and giving the surface a perfectly radiant glow. A joyous and juicy way to begin the day.

This little printer lets users choose any color on the web, or in the real world, and using simple already-existing software, print that color into a blush, eye shadow, lip gloss or any other type of makeup.

See, most makeup comes from the same basic substrates, from high-end labels like Chanel all the way down to the cheap stuff available at drug stores. Founder Grace Choi sources the same substrate for the Mink so that users can turn any image into any kind of makeup.

The idea here is that consumers are increasingly focused on instant gratification and DIY solutions. Choi also noticed that makeup consumers aren’t always loyal to certain brands, but rather focused on convenience. With Mink, users can satisfy the desire for instant gratification while still having access to any color in the world at an affordable price.

Simply choose a color on a website, Pinterest board, or snap one with your phone in the real world, and use any color picker to locate the hex code of the color. Once you have the code, you can put it into any other program like Photoshop or Paint and simply press print.

The company is targeting the younger, 13-21 demographic who are less ingrained in their habits with certain brands and retailers.

Currently, the Mink is still a prototype, which is set to retail at $300 (approx. R3000) and although the prices of the ink and raw materials aren’t available yet, we totally think Grace Choi is on to something big. What would you want to print first? Your own eyeshadow? Or what about a blusher? The options are endless.

The future of makeup ... in 3D!3D printing is all the rage

these days, but for now, it’s mostly centered around little

plastic doo-dads. The MINK, is a bit different.

Sometimes life throws you some old tiles and then you have two options: live with it, or paint and stamp it! Save yourself a heap of cash by opting

for this very clever stamp that can be used in any number of ways.

By: Germarie Bruwer and Margaux Tait from Homeology.co.za

My kitchen had been in desperate need of a tiled splash-back because unlike most old homes, I wasn’t blessed with horrid old kitchen tiles.

1.Cut 16 mm chip board to the size you want your panel to be, minus 2.5 mm on all 4 sides. This will ensure that the tiles hang over the wood a little bit to create a nice shadow line.

2. Fix 2 mirror fixings to the back — it’s easier to do this first otherwise you risk breaking a tile or two.

3. The stamp size is 150 mm x150mm so I used some very inexpensive white tiles to the same size. Fix the tiles to the panel using a tile adhesive, leaving a 2 mm space between them.

4. Use grout to fill in the spaces and let it dry for a couple of hours.

5. Prime the tiles with a standard tile primer — there are many brands on the market — and then let it cure for 24 hours.

6. Then STAMP

7. After the pattern had dried for a couple of hours, you’ll need to seal it with a craft sealer like Harlequin Paint’s Decorator’s Varnish. It’s a clear coat that will ensure that you can wipe down the tiles when they get wet or dirty.

Wat moet jy hê?• 240 ml koeksoda• 120 ml sitroensuur• 120 ml mielieblom (Maizena)• 120 ml Engelse sout• 1t water• 2 t aromatiese olie• 2½ t amandel-olie• ’n paar druppels voedselkleursel• ’n Klein plastiek bakkie/houertjie wat jy as gietvorm kan gebruik

Hoe moet jy maak?• Voeg al die droë bestanddele in ’n groot meng-bak bymekaar en meng dit goed deur.• Voeg al die nat bestanddele in ‘n apparte houer

bymekaar en meng dit ook goed.• Giet nou die nat beslag by die droë bestanddele en roer dit met ’n lepel deur. Op ’n stadium moet alles so goed vermeng wees dat dit lekker klewerig begin word. Amper soos as jy sandkastele bou.• Vul nou die klein plastiek bakkie/houertjie met die mengsel, tot bo. Voeg dan nóg ’n bietjie by – en druk dit alles stýf vas. (As dit vir jou lyk of die mengsel nog nie klewerig genoeg is nie, gooi bietjies-bietjies water daarby, totdat dit reg is.)• As jy tevrede is met die verkleefdheid, kan jy dit versigtig uit haal.• Plaas dit op ’n handdoek met waspapier daarop, sodat dit kan droog word. Dié proses sal ongeveer 48 uur duur.

Ja, die winter is verby . En dit is nóú tyd vir die super-ma’s om hulle lywe somer-reg te kry! Hierdie borrelbad-bomme sal sommer een-twee-drie weer die woema in jou wiele sit.

Hoërskool Langenhoven

Hoër Landbouskool Oakdale

Puik seisoen vir Dasse se derdesLangenhoven se derde netbalspan het ‘n uiters suksesvolle seisoen agter die rug. Hulle het al hulle wedstryde hierdie seisoen gewen, behalwe teen Hoërskool Outeniqua waar hulle teen Outeniqua se O/17 A’s te staan gekom het.

Dasse-hokkie toer na BolandDie eerste hokkiespan van Hoërskool Langenhoven het van 7 – 9 Augustus 2014 op ‘n hokkietoer na die Boland vertrek. Donderdag, 7 Augustus 2014 het die Dasse teen Worcester Gimnasium te staan gekom. Na ‘n baie goeie wedstryd deur die span het Gimnasium teen die verloop van die spel met 2 - 0 gewen. Vrydag was Hugenote in Wellington aan die beurt. Die Dasse het ‘n goeie vertoning gelewer en met 1 – 0 geseëvier. Op die foto verskyn die eerste hokkiespan.

TOP 3

Landloop KampioenRuben Dlepu, ‘n graad 10 leerder het op 30 Augustus 2014 aan die Wes-Kaap Landloopproewe te George deelgeneem. Ruben het uitstekend gevaar en is as die Wes-Kaap kampioen van die seuns O/17 aangewys. Hy gaan op 13 September 2014 aan die SA Landloopkampioenskappe deelneem. Langenhoven wens hom alle sterkte toe!

NetbalHoërskool Langenhoven se eerste netbalspan het tydens die Nasionale Topskole Uitdaagreeks, wat op 1 en 2 Augustus 2014 te Boksburg in Gauteng plaasgevind het, goeie rekenskap van hulself gegee. Die Dasse is as die 19de beste span in die land aangewys. Wat hierdie prestasie so merkwaardig maak, is dat Langenhoven die enigste kleinskool is wat aan hierdie uitdaagreeks deelgeneem het. Die Dasse het gewys dat hulle met die beste Kan kompeteer!

Op die foto verskyn die eerste netbalspan.

Oakdale weer WereldkampioeneDie Oakdalers het hul reputasie as wêreldkampioene gestand gedoen toe hulle as verteenwoordigende Suid-Afrikaanse span die Wêreld Toutrekkampioenskappe in Madison, Amerika gewen het. Die 560 kg-span het reeds in Maart vanjaar die Suid-Afrikaanse Toutrekkampioenskappe in George gewen en is aangewys as die Suid-Afrikaanse Protea span vir deelname aan die wêreldkampioenskappe in Amerika. Op Saterdag 30 Augustus het die span tydens die wêreldkampioenskappe teen die volgende lande getrek: Amerika, Chinees Taipei, Swede, Switserland en Duitsland. Die triomferende span bestaan uit Ian de Wet (k.), Pieter Uys, Louhan van Zyl, Stephanus Schoeman, James Cowley, Evert Odendaal, MC du Plessis, Hans Schutte, SJ Marais, Franco Cilliers, TL Steyn, en Francois

Barnard. Die Oakdale-span het al hul trekke gewen en na die semi-finaal deurgedring waar hulle teen Swede gewen het om tot die finaal deur te dring om teen die 2013 Wêreldkampioene, Switserland te trek. Hulle wen ook die finaal en word as die 560 kg toutrek wêreldkampioene vir 2014 gekroon. Tydens die kompetisie het die span slegs een uit vyftien trekke afgestaan. Oakdale het reeds by ses geleenthede in die verlede die land by die wêreldkampioenskappe verteenwoordig waarvan hulle by vier geleenthede as wêreldkampioene gekroon is. Hulle wen hulle eerste wêreldkampioenskappe in 2005 in Italië en daarna ook in 2008 en 2012 onderskeidelik in Swede en Switserland. Die span kon met behulp van die volgende borge na Amerika toer: Sentraal Suid Koöperasie, Nulandis en Mutual en Federal Agri.

Leerders word toegerus met LandbouvaardighedeDie Hoër Landbouskool Oakdale is landwyd bekend vir vele prestasies op sportgebied, maar is voorwaar ʼn leier in die aanbieding van landbouonderrig en opleiding aan graad 8 – 12-leerders. Dit is veral ook die groot verskeidenheid van landboukursusse wat aan leerders aangebied word wat unieke onderriggeleenthede aan leerders bied. Die graad 11-leerders het ʼn besproeiingkursus bygewoon as deel van hulle praktiese in die vak Landboutegnologie. Die kursus is aangebied deur Agriplus, Grundfos, Lindsay Africa en gekoördineer deur die Suid-Afrikaanse besproeiingsinstituut. Leerders is onderrig in onder andere die tipe besproeiingstelsels, stelselkomponente, ontwerpstelsels asook onderhoud en installering. Die vier

stelsels waarin opleiding gebied is, is drup, sprinkel-, mikro-, en spilpuntbesproeiing. Dertig leerders is m.b.t. teorie en prakties geassesseer en suksesvolle leerders sal sertifikate ontvang soos uitgereik deur SABI. Die waarde van die kursus lê reeds daarin dat landbou-instasies betrokke is by die aanbieding van die nuutste tegnologie en vaardighede aan entoesiastiese leerders.

VCSV Leiers bepaal geestelike klimaatDie nuwe VCSV-bestuur vir 2015 is aangekondig en is reeds besig met beplanning en die reël van nuwe projekte. Die nuutste toevoeging is ʼn ma-en-seun oggend wat op 26 September gehou sal word, waartydens Jana du Plessis as gasspreker sal optree. Hulle is reeds besig met die beplanning vir die baie gewilde jeugweek en pa-en-seun aand wat in Februarie 2015 aangebied sal word. Dit beloof om weer eens volgende jaar ʼn groot seën te wees. Met weeklikse jeugaande, Bybelstudies en bidure sorg hierdie bestuur vir geestelike verryking van elke Oakdaler. Die bestuur vir 2015 is Theunis Raubenheimer (voorsitter) en Awie Botes (ondervoorsitter), AJ van Wyk, Nicolaas Basson, Zak Liebenberg, Luan Lategan, Pierre Blignaut, Attie Engelbrecht, HJ de Bruyn, Stander Terblanche en Willie

Music @ York High School“Ah, music,” Dumbledore said, wiping his eyes. “A magic beyond all we do here!” –JK Rowling. And indeed it has been a magical year for music at York. The choir have found a undisturbed rehearsal slot and wowed all and sundry at the Outeniqua Choir Festival, we have more leaners than ever taking music as a subject, five of the Headstudents are active in the Arts, we have a Male Voice Choir!, several of our learners sing in the award-winning South Cape Children’s Choir and play in the South Cape Symphony Orchestra, the range of instruments is spreading and the Windband is growing in size and ability. The Music Department of York High School presented a concert on September the 2nd in the lecture theatre which was well attended

and thoroughly enjoyed by all. The concert showcased the growing music department at York High and featured a huge variety of instruments which included piano, trumpet, trombone, alto and tenor saxophone, tuba, guitars and was a celebration of all the cultural achievements for the year. The performances by our choirs, the Wind band and a good number of learners on their individual instruments ensured a high quality of entertainment for the evening. York is very proud of the quality of music produced at York. Both the York choirs recently obtained collectively 6 A++ and 2 A+ at the Outeniqua Choir festival which was recently held in George. At the festival they delivered vibrant and pitch perfect songs which earned them many

accolades from both judges and spectators. The award winning choirs, both Male Voice (directed by Mr Niall Jack) and School Choir (directed by Lida de Viliers) ended our musical evening programme on a splendid note. In the George Eisteddfod held two weeks ago many of York High’s instrumentalists obtained A+ and A++ and the Windband which also achieved an A++ was invited to open the Eisteddfod Festival concert which was held last Wednesday in the Arts Theatre. All in all 2014 has been a good year for the York Music department. Thanks to all the teachers involved in this passion – anyone can teach but few can inspire …

P.W. Botha Kollege hou talent aand.”PW’s Got Talent”

P.W. Botha Kollege hou matriekafskeid

PW Botha Kollege het die voorreg gehad om weer vanjaar die gewilde PW’s Got Talent Show aan te bied. Daar was onder meer ‘n hele paar dogters wat hulle lywe sangeres gehou het en dan ‘n groep of twee wat hul hand aan ruimklets (“rap”) gewaag het.Die aand het vir PW Botha op ‘n waaghalsige manier afgeskop. Vir die eerste keer in ‘n paar jaar is daar weer gepoog om ‘n dramastuk op

die verhoog te sit. En wat ‘n sukses was dit nie. ‘n Uitgesoekte groepie leerders het hul weg oopgesien om die baie bekende “District Six” aan te pak, wat deur David Kramer geskryf is. ‘n Paar matrieks van 2014 maak hul debuut op die verhoog in hoofrolle. Lorenzo Esau vertolk die rol as Mister Henry en teenoor hom speel Edith Geswindt as Aunty Hester. Ons het baie pret op die

verhoog gehad, en in styl ‘n stukkie geskiedenis vasgelê.Die aand het nie net vir talent eie aan PW Botha Kollege gesorg nie, maar ook talent uit die dorp. ‘n Groepie, wat hulself Revelation noem, het as gaskunstenaar opgetree en vir groot opwinding gesorg. Ons hoop om volgende jaar nog ‘n groter sukses van die aand te maak, want hierdie geleentheid was iets om oor te praat.

In die Oktober vakansie vind die jaarlikse krieketfees plaas. Daar is 12 spanne wat die jaar aan die krieketfees deelneem. Die wedstryde begin die 4de Oktober en vind plaas op verskeie velde in George. Die krieketfees is baie gewild onder skole in die Wes, Suid en Oos-Kaap, daar is selfs skole uit Kimberly en Gauteng wat deelneem. Dit is die jaar die 13de keer wat die Krieketfees aangebied word. So geleentheid kan nie ongesiens verby gaan nie. Vind jou weg oop om die fees te kom ondersteun.

Woensdag 20 Augustus het P.W. Botha se graad 12 leerders 40 days gehou en die onderwysers het ook goed gedink om deel van die pret te wees.

P.W. Botha Kollege spog met wel toegeruste tegniese sentrums. Die sentrums is onlangs opgegradeer om die leerders toe te rus vir die nuwe tegniese vakke wat in 2016 aangebied gaan word. Die departement van onderwys het die ou toerusting en masjienerie vervang.

Polisie en honde instappie terdeë

Ons kleuters het die polisie en honde instappie terdeë geniet op 15 Augustus. Hulle het ‘n

demonstrasie gehou met Jack die Rottweiler wat ‘n skelm agterna

sit en “vang”. Gigi die Duitse Herdershond het ‘n baie kalm

en liefdevolle geaardheid en die kleuters kon haar streel. Sy is

opgelei om ses verskillende soorte dwelmmiddels te kan uitsnuffel.

Marimba’s Seiljagvaart

Hokkie

Die Curro Marimba’s is iets unieks in die Suid Kaap. Die groep speel al drie jaar saam. Hulle optredes sluit onder ander optredes by plaaslike geleenthede, die Bravo fees in Desember, troues so ver as in Oudtshoorn, PETROSA se jaareindfunksie en ander geleenthede ten bate van liefdadigheid in. Die groep het in die onlangse Eisteddfod in George die uitsonderlike prestasie behaal deur 100% toegeken te word vir hulle optrede. Hulle is dan ook genooi om aan die Gala aand in George deel te neem.

Megan Robertson is een van twee Suid Afrikaners wat in Augustus aan die Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China deelgeneem het in die seiljagvaart afdeling. Om te kwalifiseer vir die geleentheid moes sy aan kompetises in Italië vroeër vanjaar deelneem.

Curro Mosselbaai het onlangs ‘n Hokkie en 7’s Rugby toernooi met groot sukses aangebied.

Die Nasionale Curro 7’s toernooi is in Mei ook in Mosselbaai aangebied.

Hoërskool Outeniqua

We are a school that chooses to focus on creating the best opportunities for learnersin academics, sport and culture. We inspireand encourage learners to pursue their dreamsand

ambitions, to equip them to ultimately fulfil their roles in society as responsible contributing adults.

Academic Education. Glenwood House School is a private school which offers an excellent education from Gr 000 to Gr 12.

We are proudly associated with the Independent Examination Board which has an exceptional track record in SA. We offer our Gr 12 learners an IEB matric or exit exam—a qualification which is held in high esteem by universities both in South Africa and abroad. The IEB is one of only two accredited examination boards in SA.

The IEB advocates critical and creative thinking: “HOW to THINK and not WHAT to THINK”. It encourages pupils to be analytical, reflective and proactive - how to critically engage; not what to say. Our syllabus has been expanded to lead learners to develop critical thinking. We offer International Benchmarking Tests in Maths and English as part of our continuous evaluation of learners. The IEB forms the foundation on which our learners graduate with a qualification which truly equips them for life and the rigours of tertiary education. We have achieved a 100% pass rate for the past 7 years. Last year we achieved 89 distinctions, an average of 1.89 per matric.

Our Pre-Preparatory school, Little Glens, focuses on school readiness and development of cognitive (particularly reading and mathematics) and non-cognitive skills. Non-cognitive skills, such as attention, effort, initiative and behaviour are a very important part of our programme. At Little Glens we use sport, arts and culture to contribute to the development of learners.

All our classes are limited to 25 learners per

class.Sport. We believe physical activity can help us

lead healthier lives - a fit and healthy body houses a fit and healthy mind. Sport at Glenwood House helps learners to identify with the school and develop a sense of belonging. Team participation makes socialisation easier and helps to develop a culture of sharing and being there for one another. We offer a wide variety of sports activities and this year have added water-polo to the menu.

Arts and Culture. We believe it is important to have balance in your life and we encourage our learners to become involved in arts and culture as receptive and creative participants. It assists in cognitive development, educational attainment and stimulates creativity.

We believe that social responsibility is essential to make our world a better place for everyone. Our programmes focus on the environment, wild life and people and includes our wetland work, our recycling programme as well as the Leopard Project, Arbour Day tree planting, beach clean ups, penguin sanctuary support, rhino conservation and life science fieldwork excursions.

We also offer:• Glenwood House Music Academy• College Hostel (weekly boarding)• Glenwood Karoo Challenge for Gr 10s• SciEx in partnership with NMMU• Showcase• School Yard Festival• Glenwood House Rugby Festival• Eden Xperience, and much much more
