2 LifestyleHobbies = Balance in 2014One New Year’s resolution all of us should keep is to have a proper work or school - life balance.Balancing work and life means making time for work, making time for family and making time for yourself and when you choose a hobby you can find a way to express your personal interests. Other advantages include time to relax to reduce stress levels, a physical hobby can promote exercise and you can also find new skills and uncover hidden talents. You may also meet new friends, keep your brain sharp or make money. The benefits are endless.

Don’t make procrastination the thief of your time. Get up from the couch and make 2014 AWSUM!

Choosing your hobbyHobbies should never interfere with time spent working or with time spent with the family. Write down you schedule to find time that you can devote to your hobby.

Hobbies for the familyThe whole family can participate in a hobby. Here are a few options:• If you like adventure and exploration,

try hiking or camping• Establish your own movie club and

watch a movie once a week. Make popcorn, put on your pj’s and then talk about the movie afterwards.

• Scrapbooking is also a popular family hobby. Print family photos and decorate scrapbook pages together.

More hobbies to choose from:• Gardening: whether you live in the

city or countryside, it’s easy to enjoy gardening.

• Photography is the perfect hobby for someone with a creative eye. Search online for a photography course near you.

• Learn to play an instrument. There are so many to choose from!

• Is your New Year resolution to lose weight? Maybe it’s time to

join an organised sport.• Master a new

language!• Sign up for

pottery or cooking classes

Maybe you are more a people-

person and enjoy meeting new people.

Take a hobby that involves other people:

• WineTasting• Fleamarkets

• Bingo• Bowling• Teamsports• BookClubs

“If you want to be certain, you should never get married. You should never change jobs. In fact, you might as well just stay home. Because I don’t know anybody who is certain. That need to be certain is just procrastination.

Sometimes, the smallest of household tasks are overlooked therefore the New Year signifies a fresh start in the home and is the perfect time to check them all off your list. Here are 10 simple but essential housekeeping chores you might not have remembered to do:1. Rotate your mattress at least once a year. 2. Feather, down, and syntheticpillows should be washed once a year to eliminate oils, residue, dead skin, and dust that inevitably settle in the pillows and make them sag. 3. If you don’t remember changing your toothbrush within the last six months, change them all.4. Now is a good time to take stock of your inventory and replace, repurpose, or give away any linens that are worn, ripped, stained, or otherwise unused, collecting dust in the closet. 5. Refresh closet sachets, or make new ones.6. UV rays are an excellent (and green and free) source of disinfectant. You can’t exactly throw a rug into the washer, but you can easily haul it outside, fling it over a railing (or on a clean surface), and give it a few hours in direct sun to air it out and kill any bacteria in the fibers. 7. Rugs placed near windows and doors will eventually fade from the bright, hot rays streaming in (even if it’s indirect light), so it’s important to spin them around 180 degrees (after you air them out, of course!) and expose the other side to sun for even fading. 8. Give your cutting boards a good scrub using our all-natural solution, then oil them up to ensure they’ll last through the next holiday season.9. Gather up your unused canned goods, ill-fitting clothes, outgrown toys, obsolete electronics, and recent gifts you have a feeling you’ll never use, and drop them off at the appropriate food banks, charities, thrift stores, or electronic recycling centers. 10. To be prepared for tax time (and maybe give yourself a little motivation), clean out your receipt drawer to make room for new receipts.

Daar is 2 tipes gehoorverlies in kinders: geleidings doofheid a.g.v abnormale geleiding van klank na die binne-oor of sensori-neurale gehoorverlies a.g.v verminderde funksie van die binne-oor self. Alhoewel geleidingsdoofheid die algemeenste oorsaak vir gehoorverlies is (4% van skoolkinders), is sensori-neurale gehoorverlies (0.3%) die ernstigste en meer permanente oorsaak.

Tydelike gehoorverlies a.g.v Eustachiese buis wanfunksie (vog in die middeloor) of middeloor infeksies is algemeen en word behandel met medikasie of ventilasie buisies. Permanente gehoorverlies is dikwels teenwoordig met geboorte maar in ongeveer 10-20% van gevalle van gehoorverlies word dit na geboorte opgedoen. Die risiko faktore vir sensori-neurale gehoorverlies sluit in: familie geskiedenis van doofheid, sekere infeksies tydens swangerskap (rubella, pampoentjies, meningitis), sekere medikasies wat die binne-oor mag aantas, sekere sind rome geassosieer met gehoorverlies, komplikasies tydens/ na geboorte, prematuriteit, lae APGAR telling, erge geelsug en hoofbeserings. Indien babas enige van hierdie risiko faktore het moet gehoortoetse aangevra word. In 20-30% van gevalle is die oorsaak egter onbekend.

Die persentasie van gehoorverlies hang van die ouderdom van aankoms en graad van gehoorverlies af. Erge gehoorverlies word

gewoonlik teen 6-9 maande vasgestel. Matiger gehoorverlies presenteer gewoonlik met spraak en taal agterstand, gedragsprobleme of swak skoolvordering. Indien n kind spesifiek met spraak agterstand sukkel moet gehoortoetse in die eerste instansie gedoen word.

Hoe vinniger gehoorverlies, veral erge sensori- neurale¬ gehoorverlies opgetel word, hoe vinniger kan behandeling begin word en hoe beter die uitkoms vir die kind. Kinders met doofheid benodig ook spesiale onderrig en skole vir gehoor gestremde kinders is daar om hierdie funksies te verrig.

The pelvic floor is an integrated network of muscle fibres and associated connective tissue, which spans the area beneath the pelvis to support and protect many of the vital organs of the lower body including the vagina, bladder, rectum and uterus. As with any intricate mechanism, it can weaken over time through natural processes such as childbirth and ageing, leading to the development of certain medical conditions.

Given the complex nature of the pelvic floor, these problems often require multidisciplinary medical intervention. The Durbanville Pelvic Unit (DPU) is the only practice of its kind in the Western Cape, offering a holistic approach to treating the pelvic floor through a carefully crafted combination of diverse

highly-skilled healthcare professionals and cutting-edge technology.

Three specialists – drs Wynand Truter (gynaecologist), Frikkie Rademan (specialist surgeon) and Gawie Bruwer (urologist) – pool their skills to formulate a comprehensive treatment regimen for patients. Their expertise is complemented by the services of two physiotherapists, a dietician, a psychologist, a gastroenterologist and two radiologists.

This approach is highly effective, providing patients with insight on their condition across a wide range of disciplines. Based on this sound medical advice, patients are able to make an informed decision on the

best course of treatment in consultation with their doctors.

The practice’s philosophy is to offer the best standard of care. Therefore they opted to set up the unit at Mediclinic Durbanville, a hospital well-known for its quality of care and technological leadership. In addition, the DPU has invested in the most advanced instrumentation including a 3D sonar, which is used as a standard procedure in every examination. Colonoscopies (colon camera), cystoscopies (bladder camera), defecograms (bowel and pelvis X-ray) and manometries (muscle test for the pelvis and nerves) are also routinely carried out for specific indications. All these tests form part of a full diagnostic work-up to ensure

the best therapy option for each patient.Keeping up with the latest developments in the field is another priority and the doctors regularly attend workshops. They are also able to call upon world-renowned pelvic floor surgeon, Professor Peter von Theobold, who acts as an expert advisor to the team.Due to the proven scientific approach taken by the unit and the long-term benefits to patients, medical aids do cover a number of laproscopic procedures offered at the practice.

“As a professional rugby player, it is very important for me to eat the right food and stay in shape,” says Jean de Villiers, Captain of the national rugby team and Resolution Health Medical Scheme representative. “Apart from the set meals compiled by our fitness trainer when we are on tour, I try to eat four to six small meals which include fresh fruit and vegetables as well as a balance of protein and carbohydrates when at home. Obviously I try to steer clear of junk foods but do spoil myself occasionally with a pizza. After all everyone deserves a treat every now and again.”

According to de Villiers, eating foods that are low in calories do not necessarily mean you are doing the right thing for your body. “The foods you include in your diet need to be nutritious and provide energy that is sustainable. For example, when we are doing intense training I take some whey protein and glutamine supplements to help with recovery. It also assists me to be fresh for the next day’s training,” he says.

De Villiers also highlighted the importance of exercise in leading a healthy lifestyle, particularly in light of a recent survey finding that 49% of South Africans do not exercise at all. “You don’t necessarily have to visit the gym five times a week to work on your fitness levels. You can incorporate exercise into your hobbies as well. For example, apart from my rigorous training schedule, I like to be active during my

downtime by playing a round of golf with my mates and walking my dogs. In fact, an average 18-hole round of golf requires anything between three and five hours of walking, translating into a good workout while doing what you love most.

“Training forms a very big part of my life and in a normal week we would have six to 10 training sessions and then a game on the weekend. A typical training session would include spending time in the gym combined with on-field sessions. Each session would last anything from 60min to 120min and the intensity would vary,” says De Villiers.

Healthy adults should ideally aim for 30minutes of moderate intensity physical activity per day, five times a week with the aim being to increase the resting heart rate for the entire period. This threshold is usually around 180 beats per minute minus your age, provided the individual is otherwise healthy.

An increase in the amount and quality of shut-eye should be at the top of everyone’s New Year’s Resolution list as numerous studies have proven the physical and emotional health benefit of getting 7 – 8 hours of sleep per night. This is according to Doctor Jacques Snyman, clinical advisor for Resolution Health Medical Scheme.

“Various studies have proven the power of regular, sufficient and quality sleep with results showing a marked increase in memory, learning, creativity, productivity, emotional stability and physical health. In fact, the Ryerson University of Toronto found that curing insomnia in people with depression doubled their chance of a full recovery,” Snyman highlights.

It can even help you to lose weight with a Brigham Young University study revealing that higher quality sleep of 8.5 hours a night is associated with a lower body fat percentage.

An inadequate amount of sleep can also result in a number of negative implications

for one’s health, including obesity, hypertension, heart and blood vessel disease and diabetes, as well as possible harmful effects on mental health.

Sleeping tips

• Where possible, stick to a regular routine of going to bed and waking up at the same time• Incorporate a relaxing pre-sleep ritual into your daily routine. Examples include having a warm bath, reading a book or having a warm cup of herbal tea• Exercise daily• Avoid alcohol, cigarettes, coffee and heavy meals 2 – 3 hours before bedtime• Create a sleep inducing environment: dark, quiet and cool

Getting sufficient sleep is one of the easiest ways to improve your lifestyle and basic health. Thankfully, it’s a rather enjoyable activity to add to your New Year’s Resolution list and not hard to incorporate into your everyday life.

Be sure to get your sleep this year

Wouldn’t we all love to cook with organic vegetables, but our busy schedules force us to buy not so fresh veggies from the local supermarket. Growing your own vegetable garden isn’t only a fun-filled activity, but also

rewarding when you can cook out of your garden.

We share a few tips with you to get that garden going:

1. SoilFor most types of gardens, the perfect soil is a quality light loam made up of nutrient-rich organic matter and a composition of relatively equal amounts of sand, silt and clay. In general, the more organic matter the better.

2. Which is better – seeds or seedlings?It’s certainly easier to start your vegetable

garden by planting directly into the garden, by-passing indoor seed starting and transplanting.

However some vegetables take several months to mature from seed, so it’s just not practical to direct sow them in the garden where the growing season is short. That’s why, when it comes to long season plants like tomatoes, peppers and eggplant, most gardeners either start their own plants indoors or purchase seedlings from the nursery.

3.Garden VS Containers and potsYou don’t need a plot of land to grow fresh vegetables. Many vegetables lend themselves well to container gardening. With some thought to selecting bush or dwarf varieties, almost any vegetable can be adapted to growing in a pot..

4.No space? Do it indoors!Growing edibles indoors gives you year-round access to seasonal favourites.

Live healthy with your own vegetable garden

10 Laerskool De Tyger

Die Leerderraad onderneem jaarliks ‘n fondsinsameling wat as ‘n blyk van welwil-lendheid aan ‘n hulpbehoewende organisasie geskenk word. Gedurende November 2013 het die 2013 Leerderraad die pragtige bedrag van R3 000 ingesamel wat deur Jaco Mostert (Hoofseun) en Demi Murray (Hoofdogter) aan mev. Louw van die plaaslike Meals on wheels oorhandig het.

Mev. Esmé Louw (Gr. 1-opvoeder) het gedurende die vierde kwartaal op eie inisiatief 147 geskenk-skoendose onder die ouers en leerders van Laerskool De Tyger versamel. Van die leerders wat betrokke was is (agter) v.l.n.r. Jandré Punt en Kevin Pringle asook (voor) Anouschka Strydom, Raulph Geiger en mev. Esmé Louw (Organiseerder).

Die Blou- en Witspan dirigente het daarin geslaag om hul spanmaats tot groot sukses en “gevleuelde note” aan te spoor en het sodoende die Sangbeker te deel tydens jaarlikse Kleurbyeenkoms.

Natasha Martins is aangewys as die Victrix Ludorum nadat sy verlede jaar op die dag van die jaarlikse Kleuratletiekbyeenkoms as volg prtesteer :1ste in 80m, 1ste in hekkies, 1ste in verspring (ook rekord), Iste in hoogspring (ook rekord),2de in 100m , 2de in 1 200m

Allesandro Dirk is aangewys as die Victor Ludorum nadat hy verlede jaar op die dag van die jaarlikse Kleuratletiekbyeenkoms as volg presteer het :1ste in 150m, 1ste in 100m, 1ste in spiesgooi1ste in verspring (ook rekord), 3de in gewigstoot

Op 15 Januarie 2014 het die nuwe skooljaar vir mev. Hannelie Kotzé se Gr. 1-klas in volle gang begin.

Laerskool De Tyger se nuwe nasorgfasiliteite is pas in gebruik geneem. Die fasiliteite bestaan uit vier tydelike klaskamers wat toegerus is met die toepaslike meublement en toerusting. Hierdie lokale huisves alle leerders van Gr. R – Gr. 7 wat naskoolse sorg benodig. Hier ontvang mnr. Barend Ritter (Voorsitter van die Finansiële Komitee) die sleutels van mnr. J.P. van der Spuy (Opsigter) wat as bouprojekbestuurder opgetree het. Mev. Umia Knibbs (DHP) en Nasorgverteen-woordiger op die SBL asook mnr. Marius Jansen van Vuuren (Adjunkhoof) het ook die oorhandigingseremonie bygewoon.

By Laerskool De Tyger word suksesvolle onderrig en die ontwikkeling van leerders gerugsteun deur die deurlopende kurrikulumontwikkeling van die opvoeders tydens personeelontwikkelingsessies. Die effektiewe gebruik van rekenaartegnologie in die klaskamer word ‘n al hoe groter onderrig- prioriteit en daarom word die opvoeders ook hierin ondersteun.

11Laerskool Brackenfell

Op Dinsdag, 14 Januarie 2013 is alle nuwe Graad R en 1 leerders deur die skoolhoof, Mnr Johann Groenewald verwelkom.

Dit is tradisie by Laerskool Brackenfell om alle nuwe Graad R en 1 leerders ‘n dag voor die opening van die skool, by die skool te ontvang. Die rede hiervoor is dat die skool te groot is en die terrein nog onbekend aan hulle is en ons hul graag op hul gemak en veilig wil laat voel voor al die ander kinders vir die nuwe skooljaar aanmeld. Ons behaal jaarliks groot sukses met die reëlings.

Sommige van hul het ‘n traan gepik, ander was weer baie seker van hulself en menige ouers het tevrede gevoel toe hul die terein verlaat, want hul kon sien dat hul kind in veilige hande is.

Ons het tan 4 Graag R klasse en 6 Graad 1 klasse. Aansoeke vir toelating vir 2015 tot Graad R en 1 open reeds vanaf 1 Februarie 2014.

Laerskool Brackenfell streef na uitnemendheid!!!

2 Laerskool Welgemoed

Blessie “mascott”

Our New “BLESSIE MASCOTT” hatched out of an enormous egg, on the stage, in the presence of the whole school and much to the delight of children and adults, attends all important school functions.

Nuwe nes vir blessies!Leerders van Laerskool Welgemoed leef voluit vir die Blessie-tradisie soos gedikteer deur die skool se wapen wat ‘n Bleshoeder is.

Die Blessies is nou baie aangedaan om nes te skop in ‘n pragtige nuwe multi-funksionele lokaal, Die Blessienes. Hierdie nuwe lokaal wat deel vorm van die sportfasiliteite van die skool, sluit in kleedkamer geriewe vir seuns en dogters, aantrekkamers met storte en ‘n ruim multi-funksionele lokaal waaar dansklasse aangebied word en ook sal dien as ‘n onthaallokaal. Moderne kombuisfasiliteite en ‘n paraplegiese toilet rond die gebou af.

Peet van Biljon namens Van Biljon Barnardo argitekte, ingenieur Gus Venter en Anien Booyens, almal ouers van Laerskool Welgemoed, het hulle self oortref en die projek gelei om ‘n snoesige nes te bou vir die Blessies.

Welkom Graad 1’s!125 Graad 1’s het op Woensdag, 15 Januarie vir ‘groot skool’ aangemeld. Ons was bevoorreg om die oggend met 125 droeë ogies te begin. (Ons kan ongelukkig nie dieselfde van al die mamma’s sê nie.) Ons vriendelike “Blessie” het vroegoggend kom kennis maak. Groot was party van ons se verbasing oor die “groot voël” wat kan praat.

Net na eerste pouse het al die graad 1’s die hoof in die saal gaan ontmoet. Dit was lekker om te hoor ‘n mens gaan nie net vir die skoolhoof in sy kantoor kuier as jy verkeerd doen nie, maar ons kan gaan kuier om oor ons mooi werk te spog.

Die eerste dag is vinnig verby – ‘n vol dag met baie nuwe ervarings.

We welcome three new teachers at Welgemoed Primary School

Dit is vir my ‘n wonderlike voorreg om my onderwysloopbaan by Laerskool Welgemoed voort te sit. I’m very excited to share what I’ve learned outside of the classroom over the last 5 years with my grade 7 classes.

Ek wil my klas graag inspireer en motiveer om hulle volle potensiaal te ontwikkel. I see myself as a moulder of dreams and I want to encourage my class to dream big dreams and work hard to make it a reality. Ek dare jou...leef voluit!Dieter Voigt

I feel privileged to join the Blessie Family at as a Grade 2 teacher.I am extremely excited about my journey at Welgemoed Primary and look forward to all the new and exciting challenges this year may hold. My dreams and hopes are simple:Live for today, Dream of tomorrow, and learn from yesterday.

My class motto:Play, learn and grow. . . togetherJanine Potgieter

I love the kids at Welgemoed – they bring such innocence, life and hope to the world. They still have that spark - that desire to help, to contribute and to enjoy the simple things. I love the way they all jump out of their seats to help at the mere mention of a star as reward!

I wish for my learners to grow not only intellectually, but also spiritually. I want them to leave my classroom ready to take on any challenge! I want them to remember their values and I want to impart them with a sense of respect for themselves and those around them. If they finish Grade 7 with these ideals, I will feel that my job has been done properly.

I look forward to teaching at Welgemoed for many years to come! Shani Marchand

Personeel afsluitingsfunksie 2013

Ons as personeel van Laerskool Welgemoed was baie bevoorreg om aan die einde van verlede jaar op die City Sightseeing bus vir ‘n toer deur Kaapstad te gaan. Ons eerste stop was by Kirstenbosch se tuine. Daar het ons heerlike middagete geniet. Daarna is ons verder met die bus.

Ons het na Houtbaai toe gery en is met Chapman’s Peak terug waar ons ‘n ongelooflike uitsig oor die see kon besigtig. Op Signal Hill kon ons weer besef wat ‘n pragtige stad ons het. Ons onvergeetlike toer het weer by die Waterfront geëindig.

Dit was voorwaar ‘n heerlike afsluiting wat nog lank onthou sal word.

We celebrated our 49th birthday at Welgemoed Primary School in a most colourful, “fantastic” manner!!

Our theme was “Rainbow Rascals”, whereby every grade had to wear tops in a specific colour.

Our birthday cake was comprised of 49 brightly coloured cupcakes complete with sparkling candles.

There were also delicious chocolate slabs up for grabs for the three learners who correctly guessed the colours of Blessie’s(our school’s huge bird mascot) hat.

Learners enjoyed a cooling orange or red ice-lolly before going home.

Much fun was had by all!

Die Evers het ‘n Grease moeder-en-dogtertee gehou!Gedurende die vierde kwartaal van 2013 het die ouers weereens bewys dat hulle uiters kreatief kan wees en die Evermammas en - dogters het hulle tafels pragtig versier om by die tema, Grease, van die Moeder-en Dogtertee te pas. The Ever girls could escape reality and for one morning all pretended that they were Sandy!

Lize beekman besoek haar Alma Mater.Lize Beekman, bekende Afrikaanse liedjieskryfster en sangeres, is ‘n oud-leerder van die Laerskool Eversdal. Sy het aan die einde van 2013 die skool besoek en tydens ‘n musiek-aand saam met die Senior- en Juniorkoor opgetree.

Die Leerderraad onderneem jaarliks ‘n fondsinsameling wat as ‘n blyk van welwil-lendheid aan ‘n hulpbehoewende organisasie geskenk word. Gedurende November 2013 het die 2013 Leerderraad die pragtige bedrag van R3 000 ingesamel wat deur Jaco Mostert (Hoofseun) en Demi Murray (Hoofdogter) aan mev. Louw van die plaaslike Meals on wheels oorhandig het.

Mev. Esmé Louw (Gr. 1-opvoeder) het gedurende die vierde kwartaal op eie inisiatief 147 geskenk-skoendose onder die ouers en leerders van Laerskool De Tyger versamel. Van die leerders wat betrokke was is (agter) v.l.n.r. Jandré Punt en Kevin Pringle asook (voor) Anouschka Strydom, Raulph Geiger en mev. Esmé Louw (Organiseerder).

Die Blou- en Witspan dirigente het daarin geslaag om hul spanmaats tot groot sukses en “gevleuelde note” aan te spoor en het sodoende die Sangbeker te deel tydens jaarlikse Kleurbyeenkoms.

Natasha Martins is aangewys as die Victrix Ludorum nadat sy verlede jaar op die dag van die jaarlikse Kleuratletiekbyeenkoms as volg prtesteer :1ste in 80m, 1ste in hekkies, 1ste in verspring (ook rekord), Iste in hoogspring (ook rekord),2de in 100m , 2de in 1 200m

Ons het tan 4 Graag R klasse en 6 Graad 1 klasse. Aansoeke vir toelating vir 2015 tot Graad R en 1 open reeds vanaf 1 Februarie 2014.

Laerskool Brackenfell streef na uitnemendheid!!!

Mev. Esté Haggard is bly oor die nuwe maatjies in die Mickey Muis-klas (graad 1.1). Hulle is gretig om aan die werk te spring.

Dié besige Bytjies (graad 1.2) vra: “Juffrou, wanneer begin ons dan nou?”.

‘n Vrolike verwelkoming vir Juf. Adie Cronjé se Beertjieklas (graad. 1.3).

Hierdie nuwe beertjies (graad 1) is lus vir leer!

Mamma en Pappa het ons nuwe maats veilig by hul klassies kom afsien. Ons Harlekynklas (graad 1.4) se maats maak hulself gemaklik.LS Mikro Dagbestuur: Op die foto verskyn v.l.n.r.: MILANO WATERBOER (Hoofseun), LISA LOOTS (Hoofmeisie), AMORÉ OLIVIER (Onderhoofmeisie) en JUAN WILSON (Onderhoofseun).
