WHAT TO FIND INSIDE

Idees vir ’n Warm Winterhart-projek

Vol magies, warm lyfies en ’n gróót plan

LifestyleIn & aroundthe house Health

Die winter is hier! Die koue klop aan die venster, dit is tyd vir lekker pannekoek en sop, en die Kaapse reëns betrap ons gereeld sonder ’n

sambreel. Maar … wat van hulle wat nie ’n sambreel het nie – ook nie ’n huis met vensters of ’n ietsie warm om te eet nie? Vir talle minderbevoorregtes hier in ons streek is die winter vreesaanjaend.

Ons hart bloei wanneer ons ’n man, vrou of kind op straat sien wat in wind en weer staan en bedel. Die meeste van ons wil graag iets vir hulle doen … maar ons weet dat om geld te gee nié ’n goeie idee is nie.

Hier is wel ’n klompie goeie idees; dit is prakties en dit kan maklik saam met jou gesin, jou vriende of jou klasmaats aangepak word. Só kan julle ’n verskil maak:

Maak Magies vol! Maak blikkieskos bymekaar,

en rys, bone, pap, langlewe-melk en ander nie-bederfbare produkte, en begin ’n kosbank.

Daar is altyd gesinne wat daardie kos bitter nodig het, én organisasies wat na sulke gesinne probeer omsien. Julle kan hier ’n groot verskil maak – en só ander se magies so vol soos julle s’n kry!

Óúgoed is warMgoedDie koue en nat weer kry ons almal onder – maar

het jy al daaraan gedink dat daar mense is wat in hierdie nat winter nie skoene het om aan te trek nie?

Gaan kyk ’n bietjie in jou kas – en loer sommer in jou broer of suster of ma of pa s’n – en tel ’n bietjie

die pare skoene en tekkies wat nooit meer gebruik word nie. En die jeans wat nooit meer gedra word nie (omdat dit te styf sit!). En wat van die opgevoude kombers wat al twee jaar lank ongebruik daar lê?

Dit is tyd dat daai goed ’n nuwe huis kry! En onthou sommer ook daardie serp wat nie meer cool is nie. Daar sál iemand wees wat dit sal LOVE!

Onthou die Engelse spreekwoord: “One man’s junk is another man’s treasure!”

Maak kleingeld groot!Kies ’n organisasie wat jy wil ondersteun – en doen dit dan!

Kyk, ’n mens het mos altyd ’n klomp kleingeld in jou beursie (dalk gooi julle dit in ’n bottel wat iewers in die huis staan). Moedig jou bure, ouers en die res van die familie aan om van daardie swáár sente – én die ewe swaar blink

geld – ontslae te raak.

Stel dan ’n doelwit: Hoeveel geld WIL jy insamel? En: Wanneer wil jy die projek voltooi? Vertel al wat leef en beef daarvan

op Facebook en whatsapp. Kry nou sommer jou hele

skool hierby betrokke. Gaan teken dan ’n prent of die skoolwapen met bordkryt op ’n parkeerterrein of sommer op die netbalbaan (hoe groter die prent, hoe meer plek vir die geld!). Op ’n spesifieke dag – of by ’n spesiale geleentheid wat jy met die onderwysers gereël het – bring almal dan hulle kleingeld en pak dit binne-in die getekende prent.

Jy sal jou verstom oor hoe groot kleingeld word!

Daar is ’n KLOMP maniere om in hierdie winter ’n verskil te maak. Hierbo is maar drie idees.

and 21° in winter.• Seal those cracks and gaps with blockers like a door ‘snake’• Throw on a jersey so you can turn your heater down• Keep the curtains closed to keep the warmth in

Hot water• Shorten your shower to save water, money and energy!• Fix those dripping taps. They can waste up to 1 litre of water/hour• Hand wash single dishes instead

When next you host a dinner party for friends, drop a few facts about your vino and impress your guests!

Cork vs. ScrewMove over, cork, and make

way for screw caps. Today, screw caps are replacing corks on more than just inexpensive bottles. Currently, screw caps seal 75 percent of Australian wines and 93 percent of New Zealand wines, and they’re gaining popularity in all countries, including here in S.A.

To Age or Not to Age?It is a common misconception

that all wines improve with age. In fact, more than 90 percent of all wines should be consumed within one year.

Use Your “Nose”• The term bouquet refers to the

total scent of the wine. • Aroma is the scent of the grapes. • When wine tasters want to describe the bouquet and the aroma together, they use the term nose.

What Colour Tells YouAs white wines age, they gain

color. Red wines, on the other hand, lose colour as they age. To analyze your glass of wine, hold the glass on an angle in front of a white background, such as a napkin or tablecloth. White wines can range from a pale yellow-green to a brownish hue. Reds begin at purple and scale all the way to brown.

Drink to Your Health!According to Dietary Guide-

lines, there are 100 calories in a glass of wine (compared to 150 calories in a beer). Plus wine is a fat-free and cholesterol-free drink. Cheers!

common ear, nose & throat Problems in childrenDr. A van Lierop ENT specialist

SPONSORED BY CURE DAY CLINICS

Children often have a significant level of Ear, Nose, Throat and Upper Respiratory problems. Because of their inability to vocalise , often the symptoms are neglected. “My child is having a flu all the time”; may be a common comment made by parents in the play-group and kindergarten age. Hearing difficulty may be undiagnosed leading to learning impairment in this age group.

Blocked nose and Mouth BreathingThese are relatively common symptoms. Often, the cause may be obvious such as the common cold or flu. Possible Causes: Allergy, Sinusitis, Swollen Turbinates, Enlarged Adenoids or Tonsils.

runny noseThe most common cause for a runny nose is the common cold or flu. This typically increase in severity over 2 to 3 days often associated with a cough or fever. If the discharge is clear and there are morning symptoms of sneezing and congested nose, the most likely cause is allergy.

chronic coughChronic cough may be caused by allergy or sinusitis resulting from a post nasal drip. Chest infection and asthma are the other causes. A persistent cough is not normal and needs to be evaluated by a doctor.

sorethroatPharyngitis and Tonsillitis are common causes. Usually this starts as a viral infection in which antibiotics is not necessary. If the sore throat worsens, and phlegm develops, a course of antibiotics is helpful. Tonsillitis is often associated with

high fever in a child. If this is happening regularly, then a visit to the ENT doctor would be helpful. Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, can now be accomplished as a day procedure with quick recovery.

snoringRegularly loud snoring and noisy breathing should be assessed to exclude blocked nose, allergies, enlarged adenoids and tonsils. The most common cause for this is enlarged tonsils and/or adenoids. If this is the cause their removal will solve the problem.

ear acheThis is caused by either an external or middle ear infection and is also a frequent cause of hearing loss. In infants and toddlers look for ear pulling, scratching at the ear, hearing problems, crying, irritability, fever, vomiting and ear drainage. In the older children and adults, earache, pressure sensation, hearing loss, dizziness, ear drainage and fever may present.

Hearing lossA child that has delayed or inaccurate speech needs to have their hearing assessed. Diminished hearing affects learning ability. The cause is usually in the outer or middle ear. In rare situation, the hearing loss is a result of a nerve condition.

The take home message is that if your child is having recurring symptoms in the same areas, do consult your physician for an evaluation. Most of the problems can be solved if there is accurate assessment and treatment.

Bedwetting (enuresis) is not caused by psychological factors. on the contrary, the condition causes psychological problems manifested in reduced self-esteem, shame and guilt. this can be restored through better understanding, managements and treatment .

nocturnal enuresisBy Dr. Nicola Grobler

Active treatment should be started as soon as the child is ready to receive it, options being an enuresis alarm, medication, behavioural therapy or alternative therapy. About 15% of all junior school children wet their bed. By high school 2% will still experience enuresis. If kids continue to wet the bed past the age of 5, it is a problem that should be treated. Boys are more affected than girls. Most children stop daytime wetting by age 3. Most children also stop nighttime wetting shortly after age 3. Failure to stop nighttime wetting is called nocturnal enuresis or bedwetting. Primary enuresis most often represents developmental delay. In secondary enuresis the patient regresses after a period of continence. The idea that bedwetting will simply go away if you are patient and wait long enough is false. About 1 out of every 7 or 8 children who wet their bed will stop wetting a year later if nothing is done. It is not a good idea to wait for a child to outgrow the problem. This can cause the child’s selfesteem to suffer. Bedwetting is upsetting to children and parents. Emotional distress is most often the result of bedwetting. It is not the cause. There are various causes and there is a genetic link. Children who wet the bed have not learned how to control the muscles they need to prevent wetting during sleep. They cannot make the physical response during sleep. As a result, they cannot wake up in the night to go to the bathroom. There is no single cure for treating Enuresis. In general, as long as the child takes the medication treatments,

these treatments tend to produce a decrease in bedwetting. When the child stops taking medications, the bedwetting often returns. Medications rarely “cure” bedwetting. Medications might provide a temporary answer to the problem by allowing children to control bedwetting for short periods of time (great for holidays and sleepovers). It is advisable to use medication in conjunction with Bedwetting Alarm Treatment, Behavioural Therapies or other Alternative Therapy. It is not difficult to find alternatives to the traditional approaches to bedwetting, but deciding whether to try them is something else entirely. From acupuncture to homeopathy, there are a lot of options and still more questions. An open mind, independence and the willingness to sift through a lot of information are required of parents looking to treat their child’s bedwetting.

chiropractic care The most often mentioned alternative approach to bedwetting, or enuresis, is chiropractic care. Although once seen as way out of the mainstream, chiropractic manipulation of the spine is now recognized as a medical treatment. Chiropractic care for nocturnal enuresis treats the bladder through manipulation of the lower spine and pelvis. Since the nerve supply to the muscles, which control urinary emptying, are connected to the brain through the spinal cord, it is believed that aligning the spine will correct any slow messaging or incomplete signals between the brain and the bladder.

OPPI SPYSKAART june /july

To make the curry, salt the Brinjal cubes and let them sweat for 20 minutes. Rinse under cold water and pat dry. Heat two tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan and brown the brinjals lightly - don’t cook them completely. Set aside till needed. Heat the butter and one tablespoon of oil in a large saucepan, add the onions and let them cook gently till they reduce down to two-thirds of their original size. Add a few drops of water if need be to stop them from burning. Now stir in the ginger, ground coriander, cumin, cardamom, turmeric and chilli powder, and cook stirring for a few minutes to release the fragrance of the spices, adding a few spoonful’s of warm water at a time to stop them from burning. Stir in the fresh chilli and lamb, and cook with spices for 5 minutes. Don’t let it stick. Add the tomatoes and garlic, season with salt and cover with a lid, simmering for 20 minutes. Lift the lid and add the boiling water, just enough to cover the lamb, and stir in the cinnamon. Simmer till the lamb is tender; about 50 to 60 minutes.

While the curry is simmering away, make the Raita. Place the yogurt in a bowl. Peel half of the cucumber and chop very finely. Dice the other half (with the skin on) and stir all the cucumber into the yoghurt with the cumin, mint, coriander and lemon juice. Season with salt and add a little more cumin if you like. Set aside in the fridge until needed.

Just before you are ready to serve, add the beans, brinjals and curry leaves to the lamb, and cook till warmed through. Stir in the fresh coriander and serve with roti.or steamed rice, and the cucumber and mint Raita. Tip: Cook the onions nice and slow till they cook right down. The sugars cook out of them this way, giving you an amazing curry

Some Like It Hot The weather is really getting chilly and I can feel the cold seeping right down deep into my bones and my belly is talking to me, saying that it got a message form my body, saying it needs to be heated from within. I must say I tend to agree with this body, I think it is time to start pulling out all the heartwarming comfort food recipes.

turmeric is a popular spice for cook-ing, but it has a long history of medicinal uses, too. Turmeric provides a wide variety of benefits, but there are six standouts.

antioxidantThe active ingredient in turmeric is curcum-in, which is known as a powerful antioxi-dant. This means it targets dangerous free radicals in the body and reduces the dam-age they are able to cause DNA and cells.

Anti-InflammatoryCurcumin also has anti-inflammatory qualities. This makes it effective for fighting heart disease, osteoarthritis pain, and other health problems related to inflammation Curcumin is believed to reduce certain enzymes in the body known to trigger inflammation.

Heart HealthTurmeric reduces the risk of blood clots and prevents the build up of plaque in the arter-ies, which helps in the battle against stroke and other clot-related problems. There are also studies showing turmeric is beneficial for reducing bad cholesterol and improving good cholesterol, both of which play a role in a person’s heart health.

Slows the Progression of Alzheimer’sResearchers studying the effects of

SPICE up your life!curcumin in relation to Alzheimer’s cite the health of those living in regions that consume turmeric in high quantities. People in India aged 70 and older have a much lower rate of Alzheimer’s disease than those in the same age group in the United States. Many believe this difference is due to the high intake of Indian curries, which are made with turmeric. Further research points to turmeric’s ability to remove amy-loyd plaque buildup in the brain, which is believed to put people at risk for developing the Alzheimer’s.

skin HealthTurmeric’s anti-inflammatory benefits can be beneficial when applied topically, too. It is considered an effective treatment for psoriasis and other skin disorders, and it is a natural antiseptic and can be used to treat burns and cuts.

cancer FighterThe jury is still out on just how effective tur-meric is for fighting cancer. Some health ex-perts point to its anti-inflammatory benefits and draw conclusions based on the link between inflammation and the development of cancer. Free radicals and cell damage are believed to be linked to cancer, too, so if turmeric is able to work as an antioxidant it has a secondary anti-cancer effect.© http://www.myhealthylivingcoach.com

Alexandra During and Alta Brink both took part in a SATA tennis tournament this past weekend, with Alta coming 3rd and Alexandra 6th in the U/12 platinum group. The 2 of them also teamed up to play doubles, and came 1st. Mienke Viljoen het ook aan hierdie toernooi deelgeneem en het negende in dieselfde ouderdomsgroep geëindig! Sy is eintlik o/11! Ons is ongelooflik trots op ons tennissterre! Julle is ware wenners!

Hoër Meisieskool Paarl het op Dinsdag, 27 Mei 2014 geskiedenis gemaak deur amptelik hul astro veld te open. Oud en huidige Beheerliggaamslede, oud en huidige onderwysers, oud leerders en huidige leerders en vriende van die Hoër Meisieskool Paarl was daar om die geleentheid by te woon. Dit was ‘n pragtige, genotvolle en stylvolle aand. The U.13A hockey played against Courtrai and won 2-0. What a privilege for these young girls to play on this surface at such a young age. The first team (U.18A) also played a most exciting game against DF Malan. They won 3-2 and made us really proud! After the official opening the old girls entertained the crowd with their skills – to our surprise they were not rusty at all!

Janke-Martine Viljoen het deelgeneem aan die ATKV Redenaarskompetisie semi-finale en het ‘n derde plek in die kompetisie losgeslaan. Baie geluk – ons is trots op jou!

Kristen Bier in gr 5 het baie goed gedoen by die karate streeks-toernooi. Hier-die o/11 leerder het saam met die o/12’s en o/13’s deelge-neem en het 3e geëindig! Baie geluk Kristen.

Our boys looked really damaged as they dressed up for Plaster Day on Friday 23 May. We support Red Cross Children’s Hospital Fund in this fun way.

Phillip Coetzee (Nr.1), William Zulch (Nr.2) en Hugo van Zyl (Nr.10) het die afgelope vakansie die Boland 0/11 Span verteenwoordig by die Synergy Cup. Hierdie is ‘n jaarlikse interprovinsiale toernooi wat plaasvind met WP,OP,SWD en Noord-Kaap wat saam met Boland deelneem. Boland het die kompetisie gewen en al bogenoemde spanne maklik geklop.

Giovanni Agostini was one of the WP u.12 A team members that took part in the National Baseball Championships held in Durban from 29 April to 3 May. His team ended 2nd in the u.12 category after playing 9 games, winning 8 and losing 1.

Die kunswerke van ons seuns versier ons skool se gange.

Drie gr.7-seuns van Primêre Seunskool naam-lik Dian van Rooyen, Alexander Kruger en Nikolai Coetzee het aan Korrek, die Distrikskan-toor se spelkompetisie, deelgeneem. Dis was ‘n naelbytstryd en hulle is as die wenners van Kring 2 aangewys. Hulle het in Worcester aan die finale rondte van die spelkom-petisie deelgeneem en ‘n tweede plek behaal.

Nikolai Coetzee het die naweek van 12 en 13 April aan die SA Wakeboard Nationals in Johannesburg deelgeneem. Hy het eerste gekom in die seuns onder 15 afdeling.

Die Gr R-Larries het speelgroepies genooi om besoek te kom aflê. Die dag was vol pret: skattejag, krale ryg, kolwyntjies versier en aantrek soos dames. Tannie Freda het hulle ook kom vermaak met haar poppekas. Die kleine dames het hulle gate uit geniet by die fotohoekie. Hulle het te fraai geposeer vir foto’s. Modelle in wording!

Ons ondersteun die Drakenstein “Assosciation for Persons with Disabilities” se Lollipop-geldinsamelingsprojek. Lollipop-dag word op 7 Junie gehou en die Larries is fluks besig om hulle “lollipops” te koop.

Die opvoeders van Laer Meisieskool La Rochelle is druk besig om hulle rekenaarvaardighede op te skerp. Sommige is besig met MSPIL en ander met ‘n kursus wat deur Boland Kollege aangebied word. Ons is beslis nie “tegnologies gestremd” nie!

Is/was dit u nagmerrie? Die Graad 3-leerders het onlangs van breuke geleer. Die eerste les is prakties gedoen en basiese konsepte is dus so bekend gestel. Hulle gaan beslis die les onthou.
